Approval among the Hispanic community for the president's job performance fell more than 20 percentage points in his little more than a year in office, according to a new survey by Univision News in alliance with NORC. Most feel that the administration's policies have worsened inflation and believe that their financial situation will not improve any time soon.

Univision poll: burdened by inflation and pessimistic about the future, Hispanics lose confidence in Biden

All six states where President Trump contested the results have now certified Joe Biden as the winner, but the president continues to say there was fraud without providing evidence. The Attorney General also said Tuesday there was no evidence of significant fraud. All this, as many congressional Republicans remain silent on the issue.

Six battleground states certify Joe Biden as election winner

The president's campaign has filed new lawsuits in Pennsylvania and Arizona. How are the courts likely to go? “They are not arguing something a court can give them … in Pennsylvania, one of the things they are asking for is to throw out the entire vote, which is sort of absurd,” says Ciara Torres-Spelliscy, a law professor at Stetson University College of Law.

What could happen if Trump does not concede to Biden? “That is not just bad for a president-elect, but bad for our country… we know that foreign adversaries may try to take advantage of uncertainty so there are national security considerations that need to be taken into account,” says Chris Lu, a former senior member of the Obama administration.

Will President Trump concede his election loss to Joe Biden?

How will people know the final results? “Every state has what they call a certification date … essentially, about 10 to 15 days after the election, the committee in charge of the state election … will meet and they will certify the counts from all the counties,” says Charles Zelden political science professor at Nova Southeastern University.
