Live updates of the 2020 US election results:
In addition to fears in an already chaotic environment, misinformation regarding voting by mail is mounting, leading to false claims that ballots have been tampered with. According to data published by the New York Times, the largest volume of misinformation regarding voting by mail has been floating around the battlefield states. Of the 1.1 million vote-by-mail falsehoods that Zignal counted, Pennsylvania topped the list with 227,907 of them. This comes after Trump’s repeated attacks on the credibility of the system.
The issue of electoral fraud was raised on the last day of the campaign when the president of the United States, Donald Trump, sought to know the results in time. “The election must end on November 3, not weeks later!” tweeted on Friday.
With Trump threatening legal battles over the declaration of results, several Democratic and Republican lawyers have already gone to court on these issues in the run-up to Tuesday’s election. Both parties say they are ready, with thousands of attorneys waiting to march to court to make sure the ballots are counted or excluded.

In national polls, Trump remains behind Biden with a 42 percent chance, according to the latest Reuters poll. Similarly, a poll by The New York Times showed that Biden has a clear advantage over 4 major changing states: Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida and Arizona. Biden’s electoral position appears to place him in a stronger position than any presidential candidate since 2008.
Meanwhile, Indian-American supporters of President Donald Trump and his Democratic rival Joe Biden on Sunday stepped up their campaigns, particularly in battle states, calling on community members to come out and vote and support their respective leaders.
