Trial Balloon · Ep. 192: November Surprises

Undecided States Prepare to Release New Vote

November 5, 2020 · 8:39 am ET · Leave a Comment

New York Times: “After the Biden camp secured victories in Michigan and Wisconsin critical to its path to victory on Wednesday, attention shifted on Thursday to a handful of states where the result remained too close to call and to the courts, where the Trump campaign filed a barrage of lawsuits challenging the validity of the count.”

“The vote counting created mirror-image dramas across the United States: Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. clung to a dwindling lead against President Trump in Arizona, while in Georgia and Pennsylvania, Mr. Biden slowly eroded Mr. Trump’s leads, as the ballots were counted.”

“Georgia and Pennsylvania are expected to release another round of results Thursday morning, with Arizona expected to release more results later in the day, along with Nevada, where Mr. Biden leads by less than 8,000 votes.”

The interactive electoral map is updated with the latest results.
