(PHILADELPHIA, Penn.) – Nearly a week after the ABC News Presidential Debate, polls show by a wide margin Americans believe Vice President Kamala Harris won. But conservative media is still fuming, many blaming ABC for what was perceived as unfair fact-checking of former President Donald Trump. We’ll speak with one of the fact-checkers and get the inside story of what the network was trying to do.

PLUS: A dismal performance by Dave Reichert in the KING 5/Seattle Times Governor’s Debate according to many Republicans.

AND: Difficult polling numbers for proponents of the four ballot initiatives in Washington state.
