00:00Welcome back. Let's continue on topic on the important U.S. elections being held today.
00:12Let's go live with a special envoy in Washington,
00:15Carlos Montero, for more details of everything that is happening.
00:24Good morning from Washington. Already it's been a little bit more than two hours that the polls
00:29opened in the east coast. No incidents so far, so good. We are here living a historic election.
00:39Donald Trump, Kamala Harris, they are expecting that today a lot of people go to vote to change
00:46this tie we have in all the polls. They said Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, they are head
00:54so they are expecting today that people went to vote and change the situation we are living right
01:01now, this tie. Last night they closed the campaign, a long campaign that has this country, you know,
01:09going crazy. Listen what Trump is saying, what Kamala is trying to say, but let me tell you
01:15what happened last night. Last night Donald Trump closed his campaign. He was really,
01:21he looks like not the real Trump. He was really, looks somber, he looks sad,
01:30he wasn't with so much energy as he usually have. He said this country is in a bad shape. We need to
01:36make America great again. This country has been invaded by immigrants. We have to
01:44change that situation. America is for the American and we cannot let so many people
01:49from other countries to be here and take your job. People in the audience went crazy when he said
01:56that and he believes that he is going to win. The problem is what's happening if he doesn't win,
02:02how he's going to react, he's going to do like he did four years ago. We don't know,
02:07we have to be careful because what he's saying, he knows he's going to win, but if he doesn't win,
02:12that's the big question, how he's going to react. Let's talk now about Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris,
02:18she closed her campaign in Pennsylvania. It was like a show, big show. There were a lot of
02:26celebrities listening to her, Paul Gonshovi, Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, among other famous people.
02:36And she said, you know, we are tired of this country to be so divided. She did not mention
02:41Donald Trump by name. She said, I'm a new generation of politician. We want that USA
02:48be back of what we are. We value our values. We are a country that we don't hate so much. We have
02:54to be together. And if I win, I'm going to be the president of the blue and the red, Republican and
03:02Democrat. I'm not going to be only the president of one group. And she was pretty optimistic.
03:09She believes she can win today. But like I said before, the polls are very close. We don't know,
03:14depends how many people are going to the polls today. So far I see lines in different cities
03:20where we are watching the people from the feeds, from the people voting. I can see big lines. What
03:27I can tell you, a lot of people vote in advance in this election. So far, the last numbers we are
03:33having is 82 million of American vote ahead of today. So I mean, that's a number really,
03:41really big. Let's see what's happened during the rest of the day. We are going to have a
03:46very important coverage here in Telesur English, Telesur Spanish. I hope you can follow us. If you
03:52ask me, are we going to know the results today? It's probably, but it's going to be very difficult.
03:59Please follow us. We are going to have a special coverage and we are going to let you know what's
04:03going on. Going back to you at the studio.
04:08Thank you, Carlos, for all the latest information. We'll stay tuned with you
04:11in the upcoming news brief to continue following everything that is happening
04:14over there in the United States.
