From 1:00 to 10:30 a.m., DW journalists based in the U.S. and experts in the Berlin studio will deliver results and comment on the latest figures, analyses and reactions from around the world.
In a virtual talk show, DW correspondent Sumi Somaskanda in Washington and DW Head of News Max Hofmann in Berlin will talk to German politicians, international experts and U.S. citizens who represent various positions regarding the two presidential candidates Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
Together with the guests, the moderation team will discuss political, social and human rights issues and the importance of the election - especially in the face of the coronavirus pandemic.

The program will also include reports from numerous U.S. states. Washington Bureau Chief Ines Pohl and her team talked to people from all groups of voters during a six-week road trip from coast to coast shedding light on the core issues of the U.S. election: racism, unemployment, environment and police reform.
