Five more states have not completed the vote count: H. Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, and North Carolina. With the exception of the latter, where with 95% of the votes counted, Donald Trump leads with just under 80,000 votes, the other four are considered ambiguous.
Maybe in Arizona Biden leads by 1.6%, but 10% of the vote has yet to be counted, discouraging major television networks, including CNNi, from even predicting the ultimate winner.

Conversely, if Joe Biden takes Georgia’s electorate with him, he increases his lead by catching up with them. 269 and so just abstaining a voter from the target of 270.
But more ground is gained Biden and in its ambiguous state Pennsylvania.
Biden will become the next president if Pennsylvania wins or if two of the states win Georgia, Nevada and Arizona. Trump’s path seems narrower as he needs to beat Pennsylvania and Georgia and also take Biden or Nevada or Arizona.
