Mr. Biden leads with more than 14,000 votes, counting 98%. If he takes over the state, he will win the election. Previously, Mr. Biden was ahead of his Republican opponent in Georgia, another important battlefield where the counting will now take place. Meanwhile, Trump’s campaign said, “These elections are not over.” Campaign lawyer Matt Morgan Trump said without evidence that Georgian votes were “badly collected” and that observers in the Pennsylvania election were not given “significant access” to the count. U.S. correspondent David Grossman has reported that Emily Maitlis, a Pennsylvania senator from Bob Casey, and Mick Mulvaney are former White House chief of staff. #Newsnight #BBCNews # Election2020 Newsnight is the BBC’s premier news and current affairs television program – with strong analysis, discussion, exclusivity and dialogue.
