The two candidates divided territory in the United States after the polls closed Tuesday night, with neither candidate obtaining the 270 electoral college votes necessary for victory. The count is still going on in key states on the battlefield, including Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia, where Biden hopes to make up ground.
