Electors, explained

Joe Biden currently leads President Donald Trump in the popular vote by more than 5 million ballots cast. And news organizations have projected he'll capture 290 electoral college votes, 20 more than needed to win the presidency. But, Donald Trump is actively resisting the results - which begs the question - does he actually have a constitutional path to prevent Joe Biden from taking the oath of office on January 20th. Plus, Biden’s tall task when it comes to climate change. And, an El Paso nurse's story from the COVID frontlines. Guests: Axios' Amy Harder, Harvard University constitutional law professor Noah Feldman and registered nurse Arianna Lucio from Del Sol Medical Center. Credits: "Axios Today" is produced in partnership with Pushkin Industries. The team includes Niala Boodhoo, Carol Wu, Cara Shillenn, Nuria Marquez Martinez, Dan Bobkoff, Sara Kehaulani Goo, Alex Sugiura and Naomi Shavin. Music is composed by Evan Viola.
