| 0:00.0 | I'm Brian Lehrer. This is my daily politics podcast from WNYC Studios. It's Thursday, November 26th. Happy Thanksgiving. |
| 0:16.4 | We'll do a brief check-in now on the Trump campaign's ongoing attempts to overturn the election results. |
| 0:23.3 | Contrary to the impression some recent headlines may have left, the certification of the vote |
| 0:28.4 | that has taken place in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia the last few days is not the legal |
| 0:34.0 | end of the line for the nullification effort necessarily. New lawsuits have been filed |
| 0:39.7 | in a couple of states. The Trump campaign is planning what they call public hearings in Pennsylvania, |
| 0:45.8 | Arizona, and Michigan. They'll look at these headlines from those states, from Arizona's |
| 0:50.7 | AZ Central. Trump campaign announces Arizona public hearing on election, |

| 1:35.0 | Here's RNC chair run of McDaniel yesterday on Fox. |
| 1:38.5 | UC in Wisconsin, 243,000 voters said they were indefinitely confined, which meant that they didn't have to show voter |
| 1:48.0 | ID. That's four times the amount of voters that did that in 2016. In Georgia, in 2018, 200,000 |
| 1:57.3 | ballots came in with a 3% rejection rate, absentee. |
| 2:01.8 | This time, you had a million to with a point three reject the rate. |
| 2:05.7 | With us now, Zoe Tillman, Courts Justice, |
