Biden only needs one state to win

Biden surpassed his rival Trump in the states of Wisconsin and Michigan, bringing his electoral votes to 264. Trump has 214. Each candidate is considered the winner if they win 270 out of 538 Electoral College votes.

Two days after the US presidential election, the winner of the election has not yet been officially announced. The counting of votes is still ongoing in several states, but it is said that Biden could win the US presidential election by winning one more state.

Biden was declared the winner in the states of Wisconsin and Michigan, taking another step closer to final victory.

On the evening of Wednesday, November 4th (November 5), Biden immediately appeared at his election center in Delaware with his vice president, Kamala Harris, and announced that he and Kamala Harris had won the most votes.

Democratic candidate Joe Biden emphasized that he does not intend to claim victory and will wait for the vote count, but the results of the vote count indicate that he will win.

Donald Trump had also claimed victory a day earlier. While the counting of votes in the US presidential election had not yet been completed, Trump declared himself the winner of the election and called for the counting of votes to be stopped. Trump called the election results “extraordinary” and claimed that the election was “fraudulent.”

Donald Trump has particularly questioned the accuracy of the vote count results in the states of Wisconsin and Michigan.

Michigan is one of several states in the Midwest where it was previously unclear which candidate had won. But after the votes were counted, it was announced that Biden had won the state.

In the state of Wisconsin, the votes of the competitors were shoulder to shoulder. But in the end, Joe Biden won with 49.4 percent. In this state, Donald Trump won with 48.8 percent of the vote. Thus, 10 of the state's electoral votes go to Joe Biden.

Trump's campaign team has said it has filed a lawsuit in federal court.
