Joe Biden said voters deserve to know where he stands on expanding the Supreme Court – reversing a statement he made last week – but he again declined to give a definitive answer on whether he plans to install more liberal judges.

ATLANTA—Cynthia Robinson had her mind made up. The 72-year-old Clayton County resident was determined her vote be counted, so heading to the polls at 7:55 a.m. on the first day of early voting in Georgia was practically a no-brainer. “I did not trust the absentee ballot in this particular election,” she told The Daily Beast from her precinct in Jonesboro two hours later. “I’ve always voted […]
