JOE BIDEN DEFEATS PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP

The Associated Press declares Joe Biden the winner of a grueling campaign for the American presidency. He will lead a polarized nation through a historic collision of health, economic and social crises.

#APracecall
The #APracecall declaring Joe Biden’s win over President Trump came after @AP called Pennsylvania and its 20 electoral votes for Biden. #Election2020

apne.ws/6NvjNwU
The victory for Biden, a former vice president who has spent nearly a half-century in public office, was also a repudiation of Trump, who has led the nation through a deeply divisive four years. #Election2020

THREAD: The Associated Press is explaining all of our race calls and states that haven’t been called yet. 

The @AP has not called the presidential race yet because neither candidate has secured the 270 electoral college votes needed for victory. 

apne.ws/4B23ET6
As of 7 p.m. Wednesday, Joe Biden had 264 electoral votes and President Trump had 214.

@AP has not yet called Pennsylvania (20 electoral votes), Georgia (16), North Carolina (15), Nevada (6), and Alaska (3).

apne.ws/UiveB5Q
In Pennsylvania, Trump's lead had slipped down to 326,000 by Wednesday afternoon. And the race is destined to get tighter.

A final vote total may not be clear for days because the use of mail in ballots, which take more time to process, has surged as a result of the pandemic.
