Description

Joe Biden told his supporters, “it ain’t over until every vote is counted.” But incumbent Donald Trump falsely claimed he won the election and with no evidence, claimed electoral fraud was afoot. In a year like no other, an election like no other, in a haze of disinformation and bogus claims, ‘This Matters’ parses through the facts of the US election. Edward Keenan, Toronto Star’s Washington bureau chief, joins Adrian Cheung to break down what we know after election night, what we’re still waiting to find out, the fallibility of the polls, and what Canadians should make of an election they have no hand in.
