Joe Biden on cusp of clinching victory
Joe Biden has pulled closer to President Donald Trump in Georgia and Pennsylvania, slowly expanding his pathways to victory as the campaigns brace for the release of results Thursday that could put the contest out of reach for the president.
Biden remains on pace to overcome Trump in Pennsylvania, where Democratic elected officials expect the former vice president to finish ahead by 100,000 or more votes in a tight race. Biden already clinched Michigan and Wisconsin in overtime ballot-counting, rebuilding the Democratic blue wall and moving him to within six electoral votes of reaching the 270 threshold.
Trump's lead in Georgia fell to fewer than 19,000 votes in overnight counts. Elections officials there provided a midday county-by-county breakdown of outstanding ballots and anticipate making updated counts later in the day for Chatham, Fulton, Clayton, Bryan, Cobb, Forsyth, Floyd, Gwinnett, Harris and other counties. In all, more than 60,000 votes are outstanding.
"We are looking for that moment in Pennsylvania and Georgia today where we see that ticker overtake Donald Trump. We think it's going to happen," Biden campaign manager Jen O'Malley Dillon told reporters, pronouncing herself bullish on the two states as well as Arizona and Nevada.
