On Thursday, US President Donald Trump's lead over his rival Democratic US presidential nominee Joe Biden in Pennsylvania narrowed to 2.6% with 89 percent of expected ballots now tallied.
As of midnight on Wednesday, the state remained too close to declare a winner, with Trump leading by 176,498 votes and more than 763,311 absentee ballots yet to be counted, according to election officials, according to Dailymail.
While Americans await the results of the US elections’ count to know their next president, Republican Trump, and Democrat Biden continue their race to win the states in succession and accumulate votes in the electorate.
No official results have been issued so far, but rather preliminary results reported by research centers and local media.
In this context, some polls reported that Biden won 264 votes in the electoral college, compared to 214 for Trump.
Without declaring victory, Biden said he believed his Democratic campaign would prevail.
On his part, Trump, a Republican, claimed to have won. His campaign has filed lawsuits in two states where Biden leads.
It is worth mentioning that each candidate needs to win 270 votes from the electoral college.
