— President Trump’s lead in Pennsylvania has shrunk.

Joe Biden is still 17 electoral votes away from the 270 required to win the presidency, while President Trump is 56 electoral votes short. Here’s where the race stands:

The New York Times did not call any states for either candidate on Thursday. Five battleground states — Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Nevada and North Carolina — remain too close to call.

President Trump, in a torrent of falsehoods during a televised statement on Thursday night, claimed that the election was being stolen from him. Most TV networks cut away on the grounds that what he was saying was not true.

Biden took the lead in Georgia overnight. He is up 1,097 votes after ballots from Clayton County, a deep blue county south of Atlanta, were tallied. The state’s 16 electoral votes would bring him to 269 electoral votes — one short of the presidency.

Georgia is also moving toward runoff elections in January for its two Senate seats, with control of the chamber on the line. Read more about the state’s Senate races here:

More Europeans are hospitalized with Covid-19 now than during the spring’s worst days, new data for 21 countries shows. The crisis is threatening to overwhelm stretched hospitals and exhausted medical workers. nytimes.com/interactive/20… Image
"I am afraid the virus is doubling faster than we could ever conceivably add capacity," Boris Johnson said on Monday.

Many European countries have now imposed fresh lockdowns. But they came late, and it could be weeks before they stem the patient influx. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Countries across Europe are scrambling to find solutions.

Switzerland approved deploying military personnel to help hospitals. France has postponed non-emergency surgeries.

In Belgium, some hospitals have asked staff who tested positive but don’t have symptoms to keep working.

We analyzed voting in battleground states to see who helped cast deciding votes:

— How Hispanics along the border with Mexico helped President Trump win Texas.

— How white voters in cities and suburbs in Michigan and Wisconsin helped flip those states.

Here's what we found.
Georgia has yet to be called as Joe Biden continues to cut into President Trump’s slim lead with most of the remaining votes coming from Atlanta, where Biden has seen big gains in support.

See more on our analysis of the Georgia vote. nyti.ms/3p4gvM4
A closer look at Atlanta and its suburbs shows Biden’s core of support in the state located there, with the outer rings of the city trending largely toward Trump. nyti.ms/3p4gvM4

If you’re starting your day in the U.S., here’s the latest from election night:
— No winner has been named in the U.S. presidential race.
— The election remains tight, with both President Trump and Joe Biden several dozen electoral votes shy of winning. nyti.ms/32b7ZkN
As expected, votes are still being counted. States never finish counting ballots on election night.

Trump made baseless claims this morning about where the race stands, saying he wanted to end ballot counting early. nyti.ms/3oViLVT
Both Trump and Biden still have paths to winning.

For Biden, one route goes through Arizona and Georgia.

For Trump, winning may depend on holding onto Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia, three states he won in 2016. nyti.ms/3mSDvvL
