Joe Biden is not ready to declare victory, but feels confident he will become the next president of the United States.
Joe Biden takes another big win in a swing state.
The 77-year-old Democrat wins the state of Michigan. It assesses TV 2 on the basis of American media.
Fox News, CNN, the New York Times and the AP are among the media outlets judging that Joe Biden is winning Michigan.
Shortly before, Joe Biden had given a short speech to the nation from his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware.
– I’m not here to declare us winners. But I am here to declare that we believe we are the winners when the votes are counted, he said.
16 electors
Donald Trump otherwise had the lead in Michigan for a long time, and with 83 percent of the vote counted, the president led with 200,000 votes. But in a matter of hours, Joe Biden turned it all upside down and took the lead.
The victory in Michigan gives 16 electors. If all preliminary results hold, Joe Biden thus has 264 out of the 270 electors he will need to move into the White House.
The last six electors he can pick up in Nevada, which the Biden camp reckons he will win.
However, there is still a very close race in Nevada, and the state expects to announce a result on Thursday around noon Danish time.
Earlier Wednesday, Joe Biden was named the winner of Wisconsin . But in that state, Donald Trump’s election campaign has required fine-tuning.
Votes are still being counted
Also in Michigan and Pennsylvania, Donald Trump is fighting against the result. Pennsylvania is not yet settled.
In both states, the president’s campaign has taken legal action to stop the counting of votes.
Although Joe Biden does not win Nevada, he has other chances of winning the presidential election.
Votes are still being counted in Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina.
In all three, Donald Trump has so far been in the lead. However, the Biden camp feels confident that Biden will win Pennsylvania.
In the second camp, in turn, Donald Trump’s people also feel confident that he will win Pennsylvania.
