The US equity indexes closed at record highs on Thursday. Analysts look to the Democrats' victories in the Georgia Senate runoffs as a factor in the surge. Experts say the dual victories in the Georgia Senate runoffs pave the way for sweeping fiscal support in early 2021. The S&P 500 was up 1.5% at 3,803.79. The Dow Jones industrial average closed 212 points higher at 31,041.13, up 0.7%. While the Nasdaq composite saw an uptick of 2.6% at 13,067.48.
Since losing the 2020 election, President Donald Trump has continued to attack the integrity of the voting system. Some of his Fox News allies have homed in on the company Smartmatic--because of the services it provided Los Angeles County for the election. But CNN reports the voting technology sent Fox News a blistering legal threat accusing of participating in a 'disinformation campaign' against it. In response, Fox has begun airing a remarkable news package debunking claims its hosts and guests have propagated. CNN reports the package aired for the first time Friday night on Lou Dobbs' show. Fox News said the same package would air Saturday night on Jeanine Pirro's program as well as Sunday morning on Maria Bartiromo's show.

CNN projects Trump will win the state of Indiana and its 11 electoral votes. Over 100 million Americans voted before the polls opened on November 3rd, 2020.
