Joe Biden takes a hard line with Trump in Georgia. If he wins there and in Nevada, he could become president even if he loses Arizona, where Donald Trump is closing in on Biden.
The battle to become the next president of the United States will be decided by the states of Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania.
According to Fox News, Biden has 264 voters and is just six from the required limit of 270 to win the presidential election.
However, this includes Arizona, which only Fox and AP News have awarded to Biden. NBC, New York Times and CNN believe it is too early.
They face each other
Trump loses ground in Georgia, the New York Times reports at 12 o’clock Norwegian time on Thursday. Trump’s leadership is down to around 18,000 votes here at last count.
In the previous report, the management was around 24,000 votes.
Also in the latest Arizona update, the distance between the two candidates decreased.
Now there are just over 68,000 votes for Biden here. 86 percent of the votes are counted in the state.
If Joe Biden wins Arizona, he only needs Nevada, a state he leads, to reach 270 voters. Biden also reaches 270 voters if he wins in Georgia, North Carolina or Pennsylvania.
For Trump to be victorious in the election, however, he must win Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Alaska and either Arizona or Nevada. This is the only way to get more than 270 voters.
So far, it seems certain that Biden has 253 voters and Trump 214. This includes one from Maine’s single district. Both the New York Times and Fox News have announced that Biden will get three voters and Trump one from Maine.

However, victory is not yet assured and only decimals separate the two candidates in various states.
State of Arizona (11 voters)
Both Fox News and the Associated Press have named Joe Biden the winner here, but the New York Times, CNN and MSNBC are reluctant to do the same.
Biden leads with 2.4 percent over Trump when 86 percent of the vote is reported. About 450,000 votes remain to be counted in the state.
Trump has taken over the largest municipality here overnight, Maricopa County.
At 9:15 a.m. on Thursday, the figures show Maricopa that Biden continues to lead, but the lead to Trump narrowed by more than 10,000 votes at the last count.
In the latest municipality update, Trump is said to have reached the percentage he needs to possibly win the state, according to the New York Times, which writes that this is not yet certain.
According to CNN, Biden has now received 912,585 of the votes in the township, while Trump has received 838,071 votes.
In Arizona, Biden now leads with a total of about 68,000 votes, but Trump is catching up. Before the latest figures for Maricopa County, the difference was 79,173 in favor of Biden, while now it is 68,390.
Maricopa County may be decisive for who gets the state’s eleven voters.
The next Maricopa update is expected around 03:00 on Friday evening Norwegian time.

State of Georgia (16 voters)
In Georgia, it is the city of Atlanta that gives Democrats cause for optimism.
Georgia’s Fulton County, where the city of Atlanta is located, came in with updated figures around 12:00 Norwegian time on Thursday. About 95 percent of the votes in Fulton were counted, according to CNN. While Fox reports that all votes are counted here.
According to CNN, there are only 10,000 missing votes left to count in Fulton Township just before 11 a.m. Norwegian time.
Trump’s leadership is now down to around 18,000 votes at last recount in the state.
In the previous report, Trump’s lead was around 25,000 votes.
In total, about 250,000 votes remain to be counted in Georgia.
There are 16 voters at stake in the state.
The next update in Georgia is currently expected to arrive around 4.30pm Norwegian time Thursday.
State of Pennsylvania (20 voters)
Biden has been gaining ground in Pennsylvania in recent hours, where his field expects very strong numbers from the cities of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia in the coming hours.
At 7:20 a.m., CNN reports that 71 percent of the votes by mail have been counted in Pennsylvania, with about 763,000 votes remaining.
In the city of Philadelphia, there will be about 120,000 votes that have yet to be counted, and Allegheny County, where the numbers for the city of Pittspurgh will be included, about 46,000 votes remain.
At 11:45, 3.215 million votes were registered for Trump and 3.05 million for Biden. That gives Trump 50.7 percent and Biden 48.1 percent.
If Biden gets about 65 percent of the remaining votes, he passes. It is challenging, but not completely impossible.

State of Nevada (6 voters)
President Trump confronts Biden, Nevada. The challenger has a 0.6 percent lead and just under 8,000 votes. The state will not continue the count until Thursday morning local time.
The latest message from Nevada is that the next results update will arrive at 6 p.m. Norwegian time on Thursday.
It’s worth noting that Clark County, where Las Vegas is located, represents the majority of voters in Nevada, and Biden is strong here.
According to CNN, about 200,000 votes remain to be counted in the state.
The next Nevada update is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. Norwegian time on Thursday.
State of North Carolina (15 voters)
Here, Trump leads by 1.4 percentage points when 95 percent of the vote is counted. Biden needs to take about 65 percent of the remaining votes here to evenly end Trump.
There have been no recent results from this state in several hours. The state accepts mail-in ballots up to and including Nov. 12, as long as the ballot is stamped and posted before Election Day. Here it can be several days before we know for sure who won the state.
In addition, Alaska (3) remains, where Trump has a significant advantage and will undoubtedly win.

Claim victory in several unsolved states
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.
The Trump camp has also announced lawsuits in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Georgia.
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.
The OSCE’s chief election observer in the United States criticizes Donald Trump for undermining confidence in democracy with his accusations of election fraud.
– Unsubstantiated accusations of systematic shortcomings, especially by the incumbent president, even on election night, damage the public’s confidence in democratic institutions, says Michael Georg Link.
