A poll released on Thursday shows President Biden holding an uncomfortably slim lead over former President Donald Trump in New York, a traditionally Democratic stronghold.

Four years from the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, Zoom mishaps are still playing out in courtrooms: This time, a defendant virtually attended a hearing about his suspended license – from behind the wheel of a car.
The video begins with Judge Cedric Simpson waiting for Corey Harris, the defendant, to join the hearing in Ann Arbor, Mich. Moments later, Harris joins the call. “Hello,” he says, while apparently steering, wearing sunglasses and a seat belt.

Harris did not say why he was visiting the doctor. The Washington Post was unable to contact Harris’s legal representative.
