More than 50 million Americans have already voted ahead of election day on November 3rd.

On Thursday night, Joe Biden and Donald Trump took to the stage for the last time before the November election. And though more than 50 million Americans have already cast their ballots, some saw this as President Trump’s last chance to shift the direction of the race, which polls suggest favors Biden.

Diane asked the Washington Post’s national political correspondent James Hohmann. He also writes the “Daily 202” newsletter.
