A day after polling stations in the United States closed, votes are still counted in full in a handful of wave master states. Traditionally Republican states can turn to Democrats this year, and that’s because a new America is taking shape, says Dag Blanck, a professor of American studies.
– Democrats are doing well in Georgia and in Texas, which Trump won, they did well. You can see new patterns associated with the southern and southwestern United States appear here.
Moving changes states
In Arizona, where Republicans have previously been able to count, Joe Biden has a narrow lead. Georgia has also previously been a Republican stronghold, but this year it is unexpectedly even among the candidates to the last. The state is expected to deliver a result in the morning and if Joe Biden wins his electorate, the choice is decided.
– It has to do with the change of states. Georgia has seen an influx of African Americans from the northern United States. Much is connected to Atlanta and there Biden enters slowly. It’s a pattern we’ve seen in other states when urban votes are counted.
But it would still be very unexpected if Joe Biden finally takes Georgia home, says Dag Blanck.
Pennsylvania counts to Friday
Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes are also still up for grabs. The state counts mail-in votes at the end and according to the rules, votes received by Friday must be counted. This means that it takes time to get a status result, especially when it comes to an even race. Dag Blanck doesn’t believe in a result until the end of the week.
– The votes that remain to be counted are the big cities like Philadelphia and Pittsburg and there is a clear advantage for the Democrats. One would expect many of the uncounted votes to go to Joe Biden.
But will it matter?
– You can decide before. Biden can win without Pennsylvania. It depends on how things are in Arizona and Nevada. If Arizona and Georgia go to Biden, the situation is much better for Biden, but if they go to Trump, the chances of combining will decrease.
