turnout, massive mail-in between the two candidates, and slim margins
contributed to the delay in naming the winner. But Biden took the lead in

was the focus of attention at the time, with Biden leading Trump by more than
16,000 votes, and Nevada, where Democrats led about 22,000. The long wait has
added to the nation's anxiety over its historic challenges, including growing
epidemics and deep political polarization.
Biden
was at his home in Wilmington, Delaware, after Wooden's count, and aides said
he would address the nation late in the evening. Trump remained in the White
House and out of sight, as more results led to Biden's lead in Pennsylvania.
During the day in the West Wing, television continued to grace the news amidst
the usual waves, with reporters adorning the news as coronavirus tests and
outside staff worked on the North Lawn on a day of minor turmoil and dirt.
Trump's
campaign was largely quite - a dramatic difference from the day before, when
officials called for a morning offering of confidence and then a flurry of
press conferences announcing litigation in key states.
Several
states were playing Friday evening - too soon to meet Georgia, North Carolina,
Pennsylvania and Nevada. Margins between Trump and Biden were narrow in all
four states, and the number of ballots to be declared’ the winner for the AP was
too large.

Pennsylvania, officials were not allowed’ to proceed with the ballot under
state law until election day. In Nevada, there were several temporary ballots
registered by voters on election day, and officials had to verify their
eligibility. And recounts could begin in both Pennsylvania and Georgia.

path to the election looks narrow, with Trump examining the extent to which he
can use the traps of presidential power to undermine voter confidence.

were that his rival was trying to seize power. It was an extraordinary attempt
to raise suspicions about the democratic process of an American president.

election," Trump told the podium in the White House briefing room.

claim. Legal action is just beginning." Is! "
Trump
claimed that he won the election late at night. He also tweeted that he had
"gained so much lead in all these states by election night, only that as
the days went by, his lead miraculously ended," although it is well known

Biden
spent Thursday trying to defuse tensions and paint a traditional picture of the
presidential leadership. After attending a Coronavirus briefing, he announced
that "every ballot must be counted."
"I
urge everyone to remain calm. Basin said. "It's up to the voters. No one,
no one else to elect the President of the United States. "

GOP Gov. Larry Hogan, a presidential candidate who has often criticized Trump,
said bluntly: Counting the votes, and we should respect the results as we had
before.
But
others who are rumored’ to be considering running the White House on their own
in four years have allied themselves with the current president, including St.
Josh Holly, R.M., who tweeted in support of Trump's claims. "If anything
is made clear in 24 hours, now we need new electoral integrity laws," he
wrote.
Trump's
campaign is revolving around legal activity, saying it will seek a recount in
Wisconsin and has filed lawsuits in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Georgia.
But
judges in all three states soon stayed the proceedings. A federal judge who was
told’ that instead of halting the vote count in Philadelphia, both parties were
forced’ to reach an agreement without an observer's permission order.
"Really,
can't we be responsible adults here and reach an agreement?" A
disappointing U.S. District Judge, Paul S. Diamond, said during an emergency
hearing Thursday evening. "Everything (skin) can be faster."
Trump's
campaign said he was confident the president would eventually win in Arizona,
where votes are still being counted’ including in Maricopa County, the state's
most populous area. The AP declared Biden the winner in Arizona on Thursday and
said it was monitoring the vote count as it moved forward.

cases."
