Now the whole map is colored – VG

This means that Biden will likely get as many as 306 voters, which is 36 more than he needed to become president.

There are also two more voters than a President Donald Trump got in 2016, and the fifth state Trump lost to Biden since the last presidential election.

At the same time that Biden is named the winner in Georgia, Trump is named the winner in the state of North Carolina. It will not affect the outcome of the elections.

Trump is left with 232 voters, and far from the 270 he needed for reelection.

This is the first time a Democratic presidential candidate has won Georgia since Bill Clinton took office in 1992.

Votes in Georgia have been re-counted to review the result, as the margin between the two candidates was below 0.5 percentage points.

Poll workers in Georgia’s 159 counties began manually reviewing the ballots in the presidential election on Friday. It is a strange and silent process.

When the AP news agency visited polling stations in Cobb, Chatham and Rome counties on Friday, there was hardly a sound other than the monotonous list of names. Biden. Triumph. Biden. Triumph.

The state had such a narrow margin in the presidential election, Joe Biden is 14,163 votes ahead of Donald Trump, that state officials ordered a recount.

This is done by dividing poll workers into pairs, where one counts and one ensures quality. They both call out the name of the ballot, put it on the candidate’s pile which is then counted by hand.

Republican and Democratic watchers have taken the oath and are allowed to move fairly freely around the room.

Georgia’s Deputy Chief of Staff Jordan Fuchs says manual counting will certainly show a different result than machine counting. But not so different that the election result changes. For that, there are too many votes among the candidates.

The result of the recount will not be released in parts as in the actual electoral recount, but generally when everything is over. It is the result of this count that will be the final result, and the candidates can when it is clear ask for another count, which will then be done with machines.

The result is expected by midnight on Wednesday night of next week.

Dispute the results

Donald Trump’s army of lawyers has filed dozens of lawsuits in six states. As the lawsuits have been dismissed in court, new ones are filed.

More than a week after the election, the trial continues in the states that tipped the outcome in favor of Joe Biden. Trump is still confident that he will succeed in court. At the top of his Twitter account, he has posted a message: WE WILL WIN!

But the allegations of voter fraud are being refuted by US election officials, according to The New York Times. The newspaper has contacted all the states and both from the democratic and republican states the answer is the same: the accusations of cheating are rejected.

– People have a great ability to invent things about choices that are not true. Conspiracy theories, rumors and myths abound, said Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose, who has ultimate responsibility for conducting the election in Ohio, a state where Trump won all 18 elections.

So far, Trump has not won in court, but it is far from over: from night to Wednesday the news came that the Trump campaign will deliver another lawsuit in the overturned state of Michigan, where they ask that the result of the elections not officially announced to the state. They are sure that it was not voted “illegally”.

Around the same time, there were reports that a lawsuit had been dismissed in the state of Nevada. And therefore it will probably continue for several days: new demands come up as regularly as old demands are rejected.
