Trump once again suggests electoral fraud – VG

Six states can now decide who will be the next president of the United States: Donald Trump or challenger Joe Biden.

Biden now has 238 voters, while Trump has 213. The target is 270, which ensures a majority.

The latest news is that Biden is beating Trump in the state of Michigan, as well as Wisconsin and Nevada.

If Biden wins the states he now leads, he will get 270 voters, exactly the number needed to become president of the United States.

However, victory is not yet assured and only decimals separate the two candidates in various states.

Trump claimed Wednesday night that he had won the election and accused “a group of people” of trying to take away the victory and defraud the American people. Wednesday came with a new accusation:

– Last night, I led, often clearly, in many key states that are almost without exception controlled and run by Democrats. Then one by one, they began to magically disappear as amazing stacks of ballots were counted, he tweets.

– VERY STRANGE, and the “pollsters” were totally and historically wrong! He adds.

– What is this about? Trump tweets about the votes that have gone to Biden in Michigan.

All three Twitter messages are marked as potentially misleading information.

In these states, the Battle of the White House (number of voters in parentheses) is:

• Biden took the lead Wisconsin (10)After 169,000 votes from the heaviest Democratic constituency, Milwaukee arrived Wednesday morning. As of 4.30 p.m., Biden has 49.6 percent of the vote, to Trump’s 48.9 percent, after 96 percent of the vote was reported.
• I Michigan (16) Biden took a marginal advantage Wednesday afternoon, with 0.6 percent and nearly 32,000 voters. Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson said in an interview with CNN that hundreds of thousands of votes remain by mail from, among others, populous and traditionally democratic cities like Flint and Detroit. She believes that most of the count will be completed and reported during Wednesday.

• I Nevada (6) Trump faces Biden, who has a small lead of 0.6 percentage points and about 800 votes. There are still 14 percent of the vote left and the state will not count any more until Thursday morning.
• Pennsylvania (20) It is the state that is the most behind in the vote count, and the result can reach until Friday. Trump is around 450,000 votes ahead of Biden, an advantage that has been reduced by 150,000 votes in the last hour. A large proportion of 1.4 million mail-in votes are expected to go to Democrats. The New York Times writes that the voting patterns we’ve seen so far also apply when the rest of the votes are counted, Biden will win Pennsylvania by 1.8 percent.

• Trump leads 1.4 percentage points in North Carolina (15). According to the New York Times, there is an 86 percent chance that Trump will win the state, with 94 percent of the votes reported.
• The New York Times electoral speedometer gives Biden a 64 percent chance of victory in Georgia (16). 92 percent of the vote in the state has been reported and, so far, Trump leads by 2.2 percentage points.
• Also remains Alaska (3) Y Maine 2nd Congressional District (1).

This is necessary for the winner of the election.

With 238 voters in the bag, Biden only has to win Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin to win the presidential election.

If Trump takes one of these states, Biden could take Georgia or Pennsylvania and still win the election.

Still, nothing is resolved yet. By Wednesday morning, Trump had regained much of Biden’s leadership last night, especially when the president secured all 38 Texas voters.

Trump’s defiance must win over all auspicious states to ensure victory, and his lead has dwindled in recent hours.

You can count on taking Alaska (3 voters). In addition to this, it must also win voters from Nevada, Michigan, or Wisconsin.

These three states and Pennsylvania have announced delays, which can prolong tensions for hours or days.

The VG summary receives figures from DPA and is updated somewhat later than this case, which is based on forecasts from major US media.

Expert: – Cliffhanger

– This is going to be a suspense until the end. It can be both ways. We see that opinion polls are wrong again and that voter turnout, especially in the tipped states, is much higher than some experts have thought, Erik Mustad, associate professor at Agder University, tells VG .

American expert and commentator on ameranskpolitikk.no Sigrid Rege Gårdsvoll believes the elections will be very close.

– I think Biden will take Wisconsin and Michigan, but he may be very close. Pennsylvania is over, I’m not sure.

The reason is that Pennsylvania still has 25 percent of the vote left, including 1.4 million mail-in votes.

– I think Nevada should basically do relatively well for Biden. Georgia, where I dare not say anything. I’ve kept a button on Biden there, but now it’s completely 50/50 for me.

Ketil Raknes, PhD Fellow at Kristiania University College, also looks forward to a smooth career:

– I think it takes Wisconsin and Michigan, and then things go wrong in Pennsylvania. We quickly ended up in the same scenario as in 2016 when small margins in these three states were crucial.

VG on election vigil in Florida: “I’m sure Trump will win”

“Georgia on my mind”

The New York Times removed the speedometer from this year’s national elections and instead chose three states where the speedometer shows who is likely to win.

The speedometer was right about Trump’s victory in Florida and predicts that North Carolina will land with the incumbent president.

Georgia was long overdue with Trump, according to the speedometer, but at 6 a.m. on Wednesday, this turned in Biden’s favor.

At 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, the needle is still pointing at Biden, but now with a 64 percent chance and 92 percent of the votes reported.

Election analyst Nate Cohn of The New York Times explains why the needle changed.

“We got enough votes from the Atlanta area to realize that it was going to be very good for Biden, and there are a lot of votes left there,” Cohn writes.

Trump is likely depending on winning Georgia. It’s probably not Joe Biden.
