Looks like Chris Wallace will finally be utilised after joining the network with no steady role as such.

Yeah Wolf is not actually part of the main coverage this time round, he is presenting from 12pm-4pm ET with Erin Burnett on the 8th and 9th.
It's interesting to see they are continuing the split between Washington and New York on the main coverage this time round presumably with Jake in Washington and Anderson in New York. Probably not surprised though given that it has been a regular occurrence on CNN now.
Wolf Blitzer had been already demoted when the pre-Biden administration reorganization was announced last year (still during the Zucker era), which made Tapper the main Washington-based anchor and, therefore, anchor of its election results shows.
