Welcome to a special edition of Slate’s news quiz. Ahead of Election Day, we cooked up a series of quizzes to test your political knowledge. Today: Your host, Ray Hamel, has concocted questions on the career of Joseph R. Biden. For quizzes on the Trump administration, click here and here. For a quiz on the 2020 campaign, click here.

Questions are multiple-choice, and time is of the essence: You have 50 seconds to answer, and as the seconds tick away, the question’s point value drops from 50 all the way down to zero, so you’ll want to click on your answer as fast as you possibly can. There’s no penalty for an incorrect answer, so feel free to take a guess.

At the end of the quiz, you’ll be able to compare your score with that of the average contestant, as well as with the score of a Slatester who has agreed to take the quiz on the record. This week’s contestant is Dahlia Lithwick, Slate’s expert on all things courts and the host of the podcast Amicus.

Can you ace the quiz and beat Lithwick? Good luck!
