Summary

President Donald Trump is working to win votes for Republicans in Georgia's senate-runoff election. He held a rally on Monday. His rally comes after Georgia's Election Chief, Gabe Sterling, debunked his election conspiracy theories. This comes after an audio first reported by The Washington Post Saturday and obtained by CNN was released. In the audio, Trump is heard pressuring Georgia's Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger to quote "find" votes to overturn the election. Raffensperger, however, rebuffed Trump's demands. On Outfront, Sterling explains to Erin Burnett why he debunked each of the President's claims from Saturday's released audio. Vice President Mike Pence will hold a largely ceremonial role Wednesday when Congress affirms the Electoral College vote electing Joe Biden. Trump, during his rally for Republican senators, said he hoped Pence would quote "come through for us." New York officials have announced the state's first case of a highly contagious strain of Coronavirus. Scientists are racing to find out whether vaccines work against new strains of Covid-19. The number of people dying from Coronavirus is rising in the United States. More than 350,000 people have lost their lives, and there are now more than 20.7 million cases.
