PORTLAND, OR - NOVEMBER 04: Black bloc protesters burn an American flag on November 4, 2020 in Portland, Oregon. Multiple protests, some peaceful and others violent, broke out in Portland as the presidential election remained undecided.

For the second night in a row, protesters who had times of violence took the streets of cities across the United States on Wednesday while they are an inch closer to find out who will be the winner in the 2020 presidential election.

While the night falls, the tensions ran high after a peaceful start of the day, as reports of widespread violence led to the deployment of the National Guards in the states of Oregon, Portland. Arrests have also been made in New York City and Minneapolis, with the New York Police Department confiscating some weapons.

In the days between Wednesday and Saturday, not less than 100 events are being planned nationwide, organized by local partners of Protect the Results, a coalition of more than 165 grassroots organizations, labor unions, and advocacy groups.

The group, which is led by the activist groups Indivisible and Stand Up America, has decided not to participate or organized hundreds of more events that were initially planned, USA Today reported

ShutDownDc's organizers planned for extra aggressive actions as the week goes on depending on the outcome, whether President Donald Trump tries to question the results or wins the Presidential race.

The Advocacy group tweeted that they knew that this would happen and called for a rally on Wednesday with the hashtags #DeliverDemocracy and #CountEveryVote.

For the second consecutive day, the Los Angeles Police Department announced a citywide tactical alert to ensure sufficient resources to address any incidents that may occur due to the ongoing Election-related activities.

According to the LAPD, many demonstrators were already detained due to their behavior.
