from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

December 8th is safe harbor day. It's a key date for presidential elections and the Electoral College, dating back to the election of 1876, when the country was still scarred by the aftermath of the Civil War. So what does the safe harbor deadline mean for the 2020 election? What is the status of President Trump's remaining lawsuits challenging the results of the election? And... why is Texas suing Pennsylvania? Dr. Claire Finkelstein, Professor of Law and Director of the Center for Ethics and the Rule of Law at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School joins KYW Newsradio in Depth to break down what safe harbor day means for the increasingly strange situation happening in Washington DC and what to expect from the court challenges that haven't been settled yet.
