Report: Trump plans to declare victory if it looks like he is โaheadโ on election night

In Michigan, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson is expecting General Election results to be delayed for multiple days.

Uber CEO walks back comment on Saudi writer's slaying
NEW YORK, NY Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi caused a backlash by calling the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi "a mistake" in an interview with Axios on HBOKhosrowshahi later said he regretted his comments. U.S. and United Nations officials suspect that Saudi Arabia's Prince Mohammed bin Salman played a role in Khashoggi's slaying, but the Kingdom denies it.
