The Democratic candidate for the White House, Joe Biden, managed to cement his victory in the “hinge” state of Michigan, adding 264 electoral votes.
This leaves him with only 6 of the 270 he needs to wrest the White House from his Republican rival, Donald Trump, as projected by the Associated Press, and networks such as CNN and Fox News.

So far, 86% of the votes have been reported, with 190,000 still to be counted according to the New York Times.
