Joe Biden has been declared the winner in the state of Michigan and is just six voters away from victory.
Five states can now decide who will be the next president of the United States: Donald Trump or challenger Joe Biden.
Biden now has 264 voters, while Trump has 214. This comes after several US outlets announced Biden as the winner in Michigan. The target is 270, which ensures a majority. Biden only needs six more voters, while Trump must bring 56.
Joe Biden now only needs Nevada, a state he leads, to get 270 voters.
However, victory is not yet assured and only decimals separate the two candidates in various states.
VG gets its figures from the DPA news agency, which updates its figures somewhat later than, for example, Fox News.
In these states, the Battle of the White House (number of voters in parentheses) is:
- I Michigan (16) Biden has been announced as the winner on Wednesday night, both by CNN and Fox News. Biden’s lead is 1.3 percent and nearly 67,000 voters.
- I Nevada (6) Trump faces Biden, who has a small 0.6 percentage point lead and just under 8,000 votes. The state won’t count any more until Thursday morning.
- I Pennsylvania (20) leads Donald Trump by 5.1 percent when 86 percent of the vote is reported. In this state, Biden faces the American president.
- I North Carolina (15) leads Trump by 1.4 percentage points. 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.
- I Georgia (16) 96 percent of the vote has been reported in the state, with Trump leading by 1.4 percentage points so far, but the New York Times believes Biden ends up winning here.
- CNN and Fox News give Joe Biden the win in Wisconsin (10). Donald Trump’s election campaign warns that they will demand a recount. They are entitled to this if the margin is less than one percent.
- Biden was announced the winner earlier on Wednesday. Arizona (11). The confusion arose when it turned out that there are far more votes left to count than previously thought, but Biden wins a large majority of the votes in the districts from which the majority of the remaining votes will come. Fox News has named Biden as the winner here.
- Also remains Alaska (3) where Trump has significant leadership.

Trump took to Twitter Wednesday night to declare victory in Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina and Michigan. He further states that the ballot papers have been cast in secret, of which there is no proof. No one else has declared Trump’s victory in these four states, even though he leads in three of them.
Biden, in turn, tweeted “count every vote.” He thinks there will be enough voters for him to win, but we haven’t declared anything yet.
“Democracy is the heartbeat of this nation,” he said in a speech Wednesday.
