pennsylvania and georgia may be become the fallback just in case. t joe biden has multiple pass to get to 270 whereas president trump has one path, only through pennsylvania and that's why you see him fighting so desperately to cling there and not allow those votes to be counted. he challenges results everywhere else because he doesn't have any option. this is the only way you can try to keep the math alive, if not the vote. ifjoe biden gets one of the pairs, he does not need the other pair to get to 270? that is exactly right. whatever happens, there will be many of people, millions and millions of people who are going to be opposed to the result, whoever wins and it seems millions and millions of people who will think that the process possibly the whole structure of democracy in the united states, is broken. how to reconcile with those people? i think it starts with the speech that joe biden gave today. a conciliatory tone, not an arrogant one. one that talks about unity and creating unity not one looking to stoke more and more division, so, i thin

the counting continues in some of the key battleground states — georgia, arizona, nevada and pennsylvania among those still to declare. hello and welcome. donald trump has again complained of electoral fraud in tuesday's presidential poll, as his lead in two key states, georgia and pennsylvania, continues to shrink as postal votes are counted. at a news conference at the white house he said the system was corrupt but offered no evidence to back up his claims. if you count the legal votes, i easily win. if you count the illegal votes, they can try to steal the election from us. if you count the votes that came in late — we're looking at them very strongly — but a lot of votes came in late. i have already decisively won many critical states, including massive victories in florida, iowa, indiana, ohio, to name just a few. we won these and many other victories despite historic election interference from big media, big money and big tech. as everyone saw, we won by historic numbers, and the pollster got it knowingly wrong. they go it knowingly wrong. we had polls that were so ridiculous — and

pennsylvania, georgia, arizona, nevada. we are following counts in all of those states.he weather should even out a bit more, i think, for friday. certainly compared with thursday, where we had the wind blowing over the pennines, bringing some sunshine in durham and temperatures reaching 18 degrees. whereas across southern parts of england, when that fog formed, it lingered into the afternoon in some places and temperatures only eight or nine celsius. now, it's quite chilly early in the morning across more southern areas of the uk. where we have the clearer skies, a pinch of frost. further north, there is more cloud around. but where we have those clearer skies in england and wales, there's some mist and fog, particularly towards the west country and the south—east of wales in the morning. it'll lift fairly readily, mind you, as the breeze picks up and we get sunshine developing widely. and that cloud, quite low cloud, moving northwards across scotland and northern ireland and some sunshine coming in here as well. the winds picking up in the south—west through the day. t

we'll start with pennsylvania and georgia. lvania and georgia. john, start us off. we've been waiting all kind of week to get this news. some movement. >> towards 270, the magic number. we are not there yet. the last several days, saying if the vote totals continue the way they are going, joe biden will get the lead in pennsylvania and take the number over 270. those trend lines have been affirmed. it appears to be heading in that direction. and because he's ahead in georgia suggests a broader victory might be on tap for joe biden. >> it is important to point out we are not projecting but pointing out the status. >> cbs news has joe biden at 253 electoral votes, if he were to pin pennsylvania, that would put him over the top of the 270 required. pennsylvania is just as important to president trump. he cannot win without pennsylvania. that's why we are laser focused on that state. it is true that president trump turned out his supporters on election day. they went to the polls in droves and why he sowed down about the mail-in pr

tally the electoral , where on thena kospi of nevada, pennsylvania, georgia, these are all the votes eed to come in and could swing. they are ground zero any political challenge or legal challenge could cause pennsylvania, that's where a lot of people are inferring could be the basis of a legal challenge. it's a whole other discussion. sure,ing that's for everybody wants a little bit of america in terms of stocks tax,se less capital gains dansk bank wants to be long on everything. the overall index, volatility is imploding, but the ground zero, i would say of repricing comes in the bond market. 30 year bond yields imploding yesterday. this is about the lack of belief in stimulus coming at a size and scale the market believed it would come through before. inflation is have been decried. our guest host in the last 30 minutes had said tenure paper take it down 2.65%. that's the state of play on the markets. let's get the rest of the news from the u.k., england going into lockdown. the central bank set to announce a new round of stimulus. we will also hear from the chancellor addressing p

biden inches closer to the white house expanding his narrow lead over president trump in georgia and pennsylvania but georgia is set for a recount because the gap between the 2 candidates is so small. hello i maryam namazie and london you're watching al-jazeera also coming up on the program president trump and his campaign they're still to find insisting the election is not over they are continuing to allege irregularities. his supporters are continuing to protest outside voting centers but elsewhere celebrations of broken now in anticipation of final results. joe biden is edging closer to that magic number of 270 electoral college votes that will make him the next president of the united states in the past 12 hours the democratic candidate has overtaken donald trump in 2 key battleground states pennsylvania and georgia so this is where we stand at the moment there are just a few battleground states still being counted at this point biden is leading in all of them based on the count from the associated press he secured 264 electoral college votes so far donald trump has 214 and needs both georgia

biden leads in both pennsylvania and georgia. ge of more than 5,500 votes in pennsylvania and 1,096 votes in georgia. in pennsylvania there are about 130,000 outstanding ballots, many coming from blue areas of the state like philadelphia. and in georgia, there are still at least 8,000 outstanding ballots. both georgia and pennsylvania are among five states where vote by mail and absentee ballots are being totaled. biden has holds in arizona. president trump is still ahead in north carolina. despite the close margin in the vote count. both candidates remain far apart on how they see what's happening here. >> each ballot must be counted and that's what we're going to see going through now. and that's how it should be. democracy sometimes is messy. it sometimes requires a little patience as well. >> this is the case where they're trying to steal an election. they're trying to rig an election. we can't let that happen. >>> there will be a recount if the final margin is a half percent. biden would need another 28,000 votes to avoid tha

we're here we're still in the lead yet the here's the thing right pennsylvania and georgia. those are the 2 that everyone is really watching because they're so close in pennsylvania with its 20 electoral college votes. would be the simplest path to victory for joe biden because even if you took arizona away from him. he would still be able to get it done with pia 98% of the vote has been counted. and joe biden overtook donald trump early today, and right now he asked about a 22,000 vote advantage over donald trump and you still have nearly a 100,000 votes that have not been counted. in pennsylvania. so that is why the networks election officials that really track this stuff and call these states have been reluctant to do so and having called pennsylvania for biden despite that 22,000 vote lead because there's still quite a few votes to count and that 100,000 number is remaining votes to be counted. that does not include provisional they're just waiting they they need more datay

a projected democrat winning his state of michigan, and with both wisconsin and perhaps pennsylvania and georgian, it may not be long now. and the democrats know that the only way they can win this election is to cheat in pennsylvania. and we've seen it from day one. we've seen it from day one. but donald trump australian team is claiming voterfraud, despite no evidence to back up his claims his team has filed lawsuits in georgia, michigan, and pennsylvania, seeking to force the states‘ counts there, they have already demanded a recount in wisconsin, which they are entitled to. a key swing states they continue to count postal vote. now all eyes are on wisconsin, and sylvania, north carolina, and georgia. joe biden still needs to get to the 270 mark, no matter what his opponent says. we will winners. and as far as i‘m concerned we already have wanted. donald trump is adamant there are serious questions to a nswer there are serious questions to answer about the handling of this election. it may be that the courts do get involved, but for now the feeling is that the colour of victory that at first

not if joe biden holds pennsylvania, protects the lead in georgia. go through this day, hours ahead, the counts here and here, if the president loses both of these, no matter what happens in pennsylvania and georgia, joe biden is the president-elect. it affects your legal strategy, recount strategy. >> arizona is an important state. biden still has the lead, 43,569. gone down a bit but still a lead. still a 43,000 vote lead. >> just for context, we have watched. if you're in the trump campaign and a trump supporter thinking is that feasible? we'll keep counting votes. remember donald trump was ahead there when we woke up this morning, at one point ahead by 650,000 votes. he was ahead there in the morning. and joe biden passed him and is now building a lead. so it's possible that happens out there for the president. we're counting every vote and see where they go. we'll count them if it changes to red, it'll flip to red. if you're in the biden campaign you want to protect the lead. they believe it'll narrow and they'll ultimately win but we'll count th

it runs through pennsylvania, georgia, the final count georgia. sociated press and fox news called arizona for biden. he has 142,000 vote lead in pennsylvania. he needs to win nevada and north carolina. he needs to run the table there. can he do it? >> yes, absolutely. i still think he can win in arizona. i've been talking to doug ducey in arizona frequently. look at margins in arizona, just the right percentages the president needs. there is no doubt in my mind he will win georgia. certainly winning north carolina. i think he has a shot in nevada. it comes down to the big 10 particularly in pennsylvania. that is exactly why many of the democrat officials don't want the public and certainly not the media looking in at this election process. we need transparency to make sure that they're legitimately counting every ballot that was legally cast. >> you know, the state officials are saying that these are frivolous kinds of attacks from the trump campaign. that the votes are being properly counted, but, the republicans are saying no, they're not. what

movement toward joe biden in both pennsylvania and georgia. e president just by winning nevada and arizona where he now leads. donald trump, the president of the united states, must win pennsylvania and georgia. must win, he cannot get to 270 electoral votes without these two states. let's talk about the commonwealth of pennsylvania, it's just more than dramatic. you see the lead. it is down to erie county, up here, the most corner of pennsylvania has flipped from red to blue. lehigh county, allentown, pennsylvania, has flipped from red to blue. more votes coming in and the president's lead is shrinking and additionally votes here from philadelphia as well and the city of philadelphia. this is where most of the outstanding ballots are still coming from the largest population center in the state and again, as they come in just watch what happens here. about 12,000 ballots came in more than that. joe biden of those got 10,839. all right? donald trump got 467. 87% of the ballots in philadelphia. time and time again when you see these ballots comin

georgia president trump leads by half a point. the president is leading in north carolina by roughly a point and-a-half. in pennsylvaniarump is leading by more than two and-a-half points. very close battleground states still being counted. the trump campaign is taking legal action in three battleground states, michigan, georgia and pennsylvania. that one could end up in the supreme court, president trump's attorney rudy guliani explains. >> not a single republican has been able to look at any one of these mail ballots. they could be from mars as far as we're concerned. or they could be from the democratic national committee. maria: the biden campaign firing back, saying they are ready for a court battle. >> if they want to push it up, put something up to the supreme court one way or the other, presumably they can do that. we're not worried about it. we're winning the election. we've won the election. we don't have to do anything but protect the rights of voters. maria: president trump won on three states in the 2016 election and needs again to win those states for re-election. election protests taking a turn overnight

pennsylvania and georgia. neither has been called for the former vice president. projected count stands at 252 votes or points for joe biden and 213 for president trump. >>> stocks turned down after making gains all week. diane king hall has a live update from new york. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. trading has been underway for a little less than 15 minutes. after post election rally that's taken up most of this week. right now dow is under pressure down 118 points. investors are really taking a break from the post election buying binge and checking tech sector, nasdaq down triple digits as well, losing 126 points. wall street is turning some attention to the job market today. according to the labor department the economy grew by 638,000 jobs last month. the nation's unemployment rate dropped to 6.9%. both numbers were better than expected. there is concern that rising coronavirus cases could lead to new lock downs and new job losses. back to you. >> diane king hall, cbs money watch, thank you. >>>

of course, pennsylvania, georgia, nevada, all of those places, there are legal challenges. the democrats are saying that those legal challenges have absolutely no basis and so they are confident that those legal challenges will not end up with any significant overturning of any of those votes. one of the most specific challenges is in pennsylvania where the republicans are trying to overturn this extension of deadline for receiving and counting mail-in of ballots the that's really where the focus of the fight is going to be, and that's how the republicans think they can overturn this vote by not counting basically ballots that arrived after election day. >> now, you know you mentioned this to the president last night, he made unsubstantial claims that the election is fraudulent. there is n claim of any foul play here. what are republicans saying about, you know, what the president has been saying. have they distanced themselves from those comments? >> well, it's really sort of trio of reactio coming from the republicans. you have the diehard trump loyalists who have defende

the presidential race still too close to call in pennsylvania, nevada, georgia, and north carolina. we have team fox coverage reporters on the ground in pennsylvania, nevada and georgia and peter doocy has the latest on the biden campaign. we start with john roberts live on the north lawn. >> good afternoon. got off a conference call with the trump campaign about a half-hour ago. they remain confident when all is said and done in the grand canyon state of arizona, president trump will prevail. some votes came in last night. the president 68,000 behind joe biden but he picked up 11,000 votes on biden. as the late ballots come nthe president's campaign said he is performing better. while it will be tight, eventually they believe they will win. the biden campaign says the opposite. the campaign predict that president trump will hang on to georgia. though it appears that margin will be reaazor thin. they have a lawsuit. the campaign wants all ballots that came in after 7 o'clock to be thrown out. they say the president will win pennsylvania but didn't express the absolute confidence they

pennsylvania because. >>they're not going to have the votes counted 4 days there and team biden does not think it has a real chance in north carolina say abide needs georgia or nevada or pennsylvania is one of them. all right. grant thank you you're welcome well across california and here in the bay area votes are still being counted from the election officials with the san mateo county election >>they are working on counting ballots that arrive before election day. the county estimates voter turnout was about 58% with 258,000 ballots being cast in person 228,000. votes by mail county elections official mark church says that they're looking for 2 things on the ballots first the ballot has to be postmarked by election day they can receive ballots. no later than november, the 20th. the county says it will be updating results daily through its website and will make a public announcement on a daily basis as well all things are looking better for former vice president joe biden the lack of a clear winner still has a lot of people on edge. no matter who they voted for and local businesses are still bracing for potential unrest over the final outcome. >>kron fou

behind he has vowed to challenge the results bisons ahead in the key battleground states of pennsylvania georgia and nevada. early celebrations have been held by biden's forces across the country several rallies have been helped to back president on from i don't supporters have been responding to the false claims that democrats are trying to steal the election. as i mentioned that president top house falsely declared victory multiple times in fact since election day also allege imports are frauds as late as comments on thursday nights have driven a number of republicans distanced themselves from their party's candidates jeff flake former republican senator from arizona cold sir on republicans to defense here selections and democratic institutions saying no republican should be ok with the president's statement let's get more now from robert good sure he's an associate professor of sociology at lancaster university and the editor of the trump presidency journalism and democracy thank you for joining us again from lancaster in the u.k. let's just start with this election it's been 4 days now it ke

joe biden inches closer to the white house overtaking president trump in the key states of georgia and pennsylvania but georgia is set for a recount because the gap between the 2 candidates is so narrow. president trump has vowed to keep up his legal challenges though saying that he will never give up fighting for the nation. act as his supporters continue that protest outside voting centers elsewhere vote very different scene celebrations are broken out in anticipation of a final result. well joe biden is edging closer to that crucial number 270 electoral college votes needed to make him the next president of the united states 3 days after americans voted the democratic candidate has overtaken donald trump in 2 key battleground states pennsylvania and georgia so where do we stand right now there are just a handful of states that are still being counted and biden is leading in most of them based on projections from the associated press he has secured 264 electoral college votes so far donald trump has 214 and needs both children pennsylvania to reach 270 but it is extremely close in georgia right n

why is a closer look at trump's legal efforts his campaign has filed suits in georgia michigan pennsylvania and nevada states where he's either lost or faces an extremely close race various suits in those states include allegations of late and invalid votes being tabulated and campaign observers being denied adequate access to counting. trump has failed to score any significant legal victory so far 2 cases in michigan and georgia have been dismissed for lack of evidence not of the complaints provide examples of trump's massive voter fraud claims but as we've reported he has promised to take his case all the way to the supreme court. fine dolling is a lawyer he served as a senior communications director and stuff legal counsel for republican senator rand paul he joins us now live brian so you had joe biden a little earlier i believe in his address he says the numbers tell a clear story what do you make of what he had to say while he said the numbers tell a story and that he thinks that he's going to win and he said stay calm and let this process play out i think what president trump is tryin

the states still in play are in yellow, georgia, north carolina, nevada, and pennsylvania.iden just need six electoral college votes to with --win. let's bring in an associate professor of political science at howard university joining us via skype. good to be with us. what is your reaction and in the way you see the current state of the race. we have michigan going to biden but the trump campaign is lawyering up wanting to take this to the circuitry -- supreme court. are we headed for a long battle? >> i do not think about it will be as long as it is purported to be. when you look at the last few states to come in, pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin, the states came in the way that they did because yet to be counted vote speak -- came from democratic strongholds. it stands to reason joe biden would overtake work could overtake trump in those states. it is not over. it is possible though not likely joe biden could end up winning georgia, which in addition to some conversation of arizona and nevada would make this break even larger in terms of a biden victory. host: everyone

i still have teams in the father, in arizona, pennsylvania and georgia as we speak. —— nevada. weet, i wonder by a lot? put it this way, we are following any cases, following what is happening with the legal cases, our legal team is following that. we have seen today, some accusations that may be, the machinery is faulty in georgia. my voting technology expert is following that. we do not dispute president trump's right as a candidate to take his case to the us court. they will ultimately decide if these cases have substance and if there is enough evidence. i can only continue to say, from what i am hearing from my observers in the field, there are still no cases, widespread cases of fraud or wrongdoing. but ambassador, when he pre—empts the result and makes these allegations of voter fraud, isn't there something that you, as an international body can do? we have already commented on this, the day after the election. unsubsta ntiated allegations of fraud by the incumbent president severely undermined public trust in the system and we have not shied away from making that conclusi

>> it is still a close race and close-- we are paying attention to georgia and pennsylvania. in georgia biden has been able to whittle away president trump's lead down to around 1800 votes, though the georgia state elections website is not updating at the moment. there are local reports that suggested could be as close as 1200 1400 votes. he is doing well in urban areas. atlanta, savannah, the counties surrounding them. clayton county, home to the late congressman john lewis, there are still 5700 votes to count and it looks like joe biden in terms of the mail-in ballots is returning 70%, maybe 80%. similarly in pennsylvania, philadelphia, other urban areas, he is returning a very high proportion of the main in -- mail in ballots. the gap between trump and biden is around 18,000 votes. when i walked in this building it was around 40,000. those are the most active states where we expect data throughout the evening or morning your time. direct route to the white house is nevada. our current electoral count is 264 provide an bloomberg, but we have not expected any more accounts to

by now leads donald trump in pennsylvania by a significant margin and a narrow one in georgia he also remains ahead in nevada and arizona as vote counting continues and what's becoming clear each hour is that record number of americans of all races faiths religions chose change over more of the same they've given us a mandate for action on covert the economy climate change systemic racism. biden called for healing after a bitter and rancorous campaign let's put the anger in the demonisation behind us it's time for us to come together as a nation to heal it's not going to be easy we have to try the trump campaign launched a barrage of lawsuit seeking to halt vote counting or to toss out mail and absentee ballots tabulated after election day but the president's lawyers provided little if any evidence of fraud no i think what the president needs to do is frankly put his big boy pants on he needs to acknowledge the fact that he lost and he needs to congratulate the winner just as jimmy carter did just as george h.w. bush did and frankly just as al gore did and stop this and let us move fo

pennsylvania. and we've seen it from day one. we've seen it from day one. his team has filed a lawsuit in georgiasylvania, seeking to pause the states‘ counts there. they've already demanded a recount in wisconsin — which they're entitled to. at key swing states they continue to count postal vote. now all eyes are on wisconsin, pennsylvania, north carolina, joe biden still needs to get to that 270 mark, whatever his opponent says. we will win this. and as far as i'm concerned we already have won it. and echoing the president's called for counting of votes to now stop, these trump supporters called for a halt at this account in detroit, michigan. show me what democracy looks like! this is what democracy looks like! that has caused counter protests gci’oss has caused counter protests across the country from democrats, with their message being to protect the vote. donald trump is adamant there are serious questions to answer about the handling of this election. it may be that the courts do get involved, but for now the feeling is that the colour of victory that at first looked trump red may now be t

right pennsylvania and georgia. those are the 2 that everyone is really watching because they're so close in pennsylvania with its 20 electoral college votes. would be the simplest path to victory for joe biden because even if you took arizona away from him. he would still be able to get it done with pia 98% of the vote has been counted. and joe biden overtook donald trump early today, and right now he asked about a 22,000 vote advantage over donald trump and you still have nearly a 100,000 votes that have not been counted. in pennsylvania. so that is why the networks election officials that really track this stuff and call these states have been reluctant to do so and having called pennsylvania for biden despite that 22,000 vote lead because there's still quite a few votes to count and that 100,000 number is remaining votes to be counted. that does not include provisional they're just waiting they they need more data they need more evidence they can't get this stuff right right we've we saw what happened then. the y

joe biden inches closer to the white house holding narrow leads over president trump in georgia and pennsylvania but georgia is set for a recount because the gap between the 2 candidates is so small. oh i maryam namazie and london you're watching al-jazeera also coming up on the program we'll be looking at president trump's reaction to all of this the campaign remaining defiant insisting the election is in tova and continuing to alleged it to allege irregularities. his supporters are continuing to protest outside voting centers as well but elsewhere it's a very different mood celebrations already broken out not dissipate the final results. well joe biden is edging closer that crucial number 270 electoral college votes that's what's needed to make him the next president of the united states in the past 12 hours the democratic candidate has overtaken donald trump in 2 states pennsylvania and georgia so this is the state of play at the moment just a handful of states still being counted biden is leading in most of them based on projections from the associated press he secured 264 votes so far donal

pennsylvania and georgia. again, let's start at the bottom this time. all right? 99% of the estimated vote in georg georgia. 95% in pennsylvania. those two numbers are the most deceptive because in this particular race, for various reasons, small margins can make big differences, especially when we're as close as we are in both. pennsylvania, 22,000 votes separate the men right now. you see that, they're basically within the recount territory in both races. certainly in georgia. it's a dead tie. so, we expect votes in both of them, specifically, pennsylvania, around that philadelphia area, there's still a lot of votes that haven't been counted or at least announced. that's what joe biden is banking on. remember, pennsylvania because if biden wins pennsylvania, he becomes the next president of the united states. period. now, in georgia that is not true, but it really starts closing doors. so joe biden very close there. 1,805 votes separate the two men. donald trump needs it. that has not been trending well for h

the trump campaign also filed lawsuits in pennsylvania and michigan and georgia, and has requested a recount in wisconsin. pennsylvania governor tom wolf criticized the trump campaign's lawsuit. >> this afternoon, the filed a lawsuit to stop the counting of baots in pennsylvania. that is simply wrong. it goes against the most basic principles of our democracy. amy: to talk more about the election and a look at who turned out to vote in this historic election, we're joined by democracy now!'s juan gonzalez who has been looking closely at who has turned out to vote. he joins us from new jersey where he is a professor at rutgers university. astounding what has taken place in this country. we are talking about a record smashing number of voters. it is believed over 150 million people voted. can you talk about the demographics of the vote in the last days, the main narrative has been before the election final day on november 3, that african-americans and latinos were not coming out to vote for joe biden to the extent it was believed they would be, but this is a narrative right now you are

pennsylvania. and we've seen it from day one. we've seen it from day one. his team has filed a lawsuit in georgiaan, and pennsylvania, seeking to pause the states‘ counts there. they've already demanded a recount in wisconsin — which they're entitled to. at key swing states they continue to count postal votes. now all eyes are on wisconsin, pennsylvania, north carolina, nevada, and georgia. joe biden still needs to get to that 270 mark, whatever his opponent says. we will win this. and as far as i'm concerned, we already have won it. and echoing the president's call for counting of votes to now stop, these trump supporters called for a halt at this account in detroit, michigan. show me what democracy looks like! this is what democracy looks like! that has caused cou nter— protests across the country from democrats — with their message being to protect the vote. donald trump is adamant there are serious questions to answer about the handling of this election. it may be that the courts do get involved, but for now the feeling is that the colour of victory that at first looked trump red may now be t

recite them again, pennsylvania, georgia, north carolina, michigan and wisconsin and a few other statesendous and early mail-in voting. the president suggesting it's over and suggesting there was widespread voter fraud, we were getting ready to win this election, frankly, we did win this election. >> it ain't over until every vote is counted, every ballot is counted! >> reporter: election night saw two very different messages from two very different candidates. speaking to a drive-in crowd in delaware former vice president joe biden called for patience. >> it's not my place or donald trump's place to declare who's won the selection. that's the decision of the american people. but i'm optimistic about this outcome. >> reporter: while president trump prematurely declared victory at the white house despite millions of votes still being counted in several key battleground states. >> the citizens of this country have come out in record numbers. this is a record. there's never been anything like it, to support our incredible movement. we won states that we weren't expected to win. >> reporter

we're still waiting for these battleground states — pennsylvania, georgia, arizona and nevada.oral college votes that matter — in the popular vote, joe biden has 50%, donald trump 47%. and remember all the votes aren't counted. joe biden has received over seventy million votes, more than any other presidential candidate in history. and there's no sign of president donald trump conceding. quite the opposite — he's launched a set of legal challenges. here's our north america editorjon sopel on the final stages of a presidential race like no other. chanting: four more years! as america waits, so impatience grows, and protests are cropping up in all the states where counting is still going on. they're mainly trump supporters, but what they're chanting depends where you are. stop the count! this is detroit, michigan, where donald trump had a narrowing lead, and his fans are shouting, "stop the count!" chanting: stop the count! but go west to arizona — where donald trump is trailing — and what are they chanting? "count those votes!" we'd just like to watch you count the ballots! last

the race tightening in three crucial states, pennsylvania, arizona, georgia. take us through it. >> let's walk through it as you noted. today could be the decisive day, joe biden needs to get to 270 to win the presidency. i'll start in pennsylvania, that alone would do it if joe biden can overtake the president. the president had a bigger lead, midnight tuesday night, it was giant, yesterday it was still significant. now is that big enough is the question. 135,702 votes lead the president of the united states in the commonwealth of pennsylvania. but joe biden has been gaining as the blue county, allegheny in the west, philadelphia in the east have been counting votes. the city of philadelphia now up to 81%. that tells t you a lot of votes still out in a place voting overwhelmingly for joe biden. these are the mail-in ballots, democrats voted by mail, joe biden has been winning. percentages like that, above 70% in all these counties in southeaste southeastern, pennsylvania. this is philadelphia. montgomery county, 95%. bucks county, 49.9 to 48.9. that's the most

and i'm grant lotus the former vice president's lead is growing tonight in a few key states pennsylvania georgia and nevada. >>and if he holds on to arizona biden would be just one of them to win the election. our team coverage on the 2020 election continues this evening. kron four's l. >>we've got killimayer d said correspondent she is live for us in wilmington, delaware to kick off the evening. wasn't quite the speech that we were expecting it was the one that we so kelli what what what do you take the next step is. >>well vicki and grant that's exactly what i was going to say took the words out of my mouth basically that this wasn't a speech that he was thinking he was going to give this evening when he said he was going to make an address to the nation a primetime speech with his running mate kamala harris here in wilmington. but it did still have that presidential tone to it did still have a great deal of confidence to it and a great deal of. urging calm and patients to he did urge his supporters to remain calm as he has been throughout the week as these votes continue to be counted as you

joe biden inches closer to the white house overtaking president trump in the key states of georgia and pennsylvania but there is going to be a recount in georgia because the gap between the 2 candidates is so narrow. i know i maryam namazie in london you're watching al-jazeera also going to be looking at the latest remarks from president trump his camp has vowed to keep up legal challenges saying he will never give up fighting for the nation. his supporters continue that protest outside voting centers elsewhere though very different scenes celebrations have broken out as a patient of the outcome. joe biden is moving closer to the 270 electoral college votes that will make him the next president of the united states 3 days after americans voted the democratic candidate has overtaken donald trump in 2 key states of pennsylvania and georgia is where we stand at the moment with just a handful of states still being counted biden is leading in most of them based on projections from the associated press he secured 264 electoral college votes so far donald trump is on 214 and he needs both children pennsyl

pennsylvania and other states. the same thing is happening in georgia as we speak. and as they count those mail-in ballots the president's lead is shrinking, now under 100,000 in pennsylvania. i want to go back to understand the drama of this. this is pennsylvania. look at where we were. look at where we were as tuesday, election night gave way to wednesday. the president was up by more than a half million votes. he stretched it out even a bit more. 435,000 and started to drop wednesday afternoon. then it dropped by wednesday night, by late last night we started to see this trend happening, but it has continued. every time they've added more ballots the president's lead has gone down. there we are in realtime now under 100,000. again, doesn't mean you can't stop that trajectory, but in the biden campaign they think this has snowballed down the hill, and they're going to keep picking them up as they go, and trump campaign they hope these red counties bail them out, but you can understand the anxiety in the trump campaign. you're hearing a lot of people say the trump c

which is the first time biden caught trump and then passed trump trump had been leading pennsylvania and georgia. since election day as 99% of the vote now has been counted pennsylvania election officials saying a roughly 100,000 votes still have to be counted and that doesn't include provisional ballots, most of the votes that still need to be counted or in urban areas that tend to vote blue for biden allegheny county here where pittsburgh is philadelphia county in the suburbs around philly, a lot of votes about 80,000 or so just from those 2 spots have yet to be counted there overwhelmingly biden at least thus far they have been so the trend you would think would continue to have biden pad his lead in pennsylvania, real quickly take you over to georgia right now in georgia, joe biden after taking the lead from donald trump this morning increased his lead throughout the day. he's leading by about 4,000 votes there in georgia 99% of the vote has been counted in that state as you see the numbers here about a 4,000 vote lead for biden over trump. trump needs to come back and win some of these stat

pennsylvania. and we showed you georgia, too. recount and in all likelihood 5 million votes cast in the peach state this year, 1,573 votes separate them as a 4:00 east coast time. we will be heard throughout the weekend if necessary. until then, set your dvr and never miss a report. whatever comes next. here is neil cavuto come we will see you when we see you. >> neil: it is the end of the election weekend and by now we thought we would have a future president to tell you about, what we do not. joe biden leads the president of pennsylvania, georgia and nevada. the president's house holding his own but so far neither gentleman has the 270 electoral votes needed to be named the next president of the united states or president-elect. i welcome everyone, i am neil cavuto and this is to is "your world." what in the world will joe biden be saying when he addresses the nation four hours from now? some people are saying he will be armed with another state or too cold in his direction. but even if that is not theas

so we're really watching pennsylvania and georgia. as donald trump is trying to hang on to his lead in both of those states people who are tracking the way these numbers are breaking say that biden could eclipse could trump in pennsylvania. early this morning east coast time which would be late tonight so don't go anywhere we could have a the associated press our broadcast partners have been working with us to call these states the dark red obviously for trump the dark blue for biden and on election night. the a p along with fox news who is very reputable full when it comes to calling states along with politico they called arizona for biden however interesting things are happening in arizona sort of the reversal of what we're seeing in georgia and pennsylvania, here joe biden is trying to hang on to a lead. and that led right here is about 46,000 trump is trying to claw back and trump has in doing so he's been chipping away at biden's lead in arizona now. obviously you figure biden holds on if the 80 and fox news called it for him but

georgia. any needs pennsylvania. so team trump is right now i would thinks you know they're sweating this moment, hoping that they can maintain the leads that they have we're talking whether or not joe biden would declare victory if he picks up georgia for instance. >>all of these are kind of unofficial right these are projections from the associated press, but strives to be as accurate as possible, but it's still not an official result and when it's this close you get you got to be. >>careful and especially with arizona still in play on some of the other count or you know with some of the other shows people are counting their fox news politico and the associated press gave arizona to biden on election night but it's worth noting that trump is gaining ground on biden as they continue to coat the count the votes in arizona is he going to eclipse biden we don't know just like we don't know that biden will eclipse trump in georgia and pennsylvania. but boys a close close all right grant. thank you. >>however this race t

pursuing. >> asking for a recount in wisconsin, if joe biden wins georgia he will ask for a recount they are. >> there's also the pennsylvania lawsuit challenging whether ballots can be accepted after election day. two lawsuits in michigan and georgia were resolved or dismissed. >> at this point none of these other lawsuits seem to be anything that will get to the supreme court or even get very far. >> tomorrow is the deadline for pennsylvania to receive mail-in ballots that were postmarked on election day. those will be held and processed separately due to the republican legal challenge. and in nevada the deadline to receive ellis postmarked on election day is november 10. >> the countdown continues. thank you so much. groups of protesters taking to the streets nationwide. looking at some right now in las vegas right now. a crowd of trump supporters waving flags and chanting outside of the clark county election center. and then there were some tense moments last night. some are upset that the state has been called for joe biden. >> they called it because it's a lot easier for them to come out and say all, biden flipped a re

georgia. he is succeeding the map, in pennsylvania esshe is exceedings map. it is critical to protect your lead. doesn't have to perform as well as pennsylvania and georgia to come back. 72, 73, 75% of the vote depending on turnout, turnout meaning mail in in nevada for participation. but this is it. if a democrat can run up a lead, that's what clinton did four years ago, run up the lead here 52-42, you look at that. looking at 53-45 now. the president higher than hillary clinton, but no third party candidate. it is definitely a two candidate race. if joe biden stays at 53, move it up a little in clark county, you stay in clark county, given it is 70% of the vote, you'll likely win the state. >> look at arizona. we are waiting for more numbers from arizona. you point out, biden's lead shrunk a bit. >> we can show you that if you

if you give joe biden pennsylvania, he tops -- he goes up to 284. if he is able to win in georgia him at 280 and even six in nevada brings him to 270. we wait to hear from officials in pennsylvania as joe biden takes the lead there. >> my thoughts are that i am still upset that we had universal voting. the coronavirus was used in that manner in order to use universal voting where all ballots are sent to everybody on the voter rolls and we know that is ripe for corruption. and abuse. we know that donald trump and also a.g. barr back in september in a heated debate on cnn talking about how there is a great history of corruption and abuse of this kind of a system. it was new and that we -- the states were not prepared to do this and to handle the kind of corruption that can happen with it. so i don't think that joe biden winning potentially as mo says 270 votes is going to quell the concern that so many americans have that their votes were nullified by this kind of abuse. also i would like to ask mo what he thinks about democrats telling basically defying a court order telling them t

, the third way, pennsylvania and georgia. so, he must win those two states if he is going to become re-elected. now, let's drill down specifically to pennsylvania for you. we were just getting some of the data that you were telling us. and when we look at pennsylvania specifically, we can see that we have roughly about 250,000 votes left. now, we did get -- you were talking about allegheny county. allegheny county, 22,000, roughly, that we expect. we did get data in from allegheny overnight. that was about 3,000 votes, stephanie. and that was leaning 21% for trump. you're not going to make up the difference in the state if you're down by 28,000 votes by only getting 21% of the vote. so, very quickly, just looking at the remaining vote for you here, steph. we have allegheny right now, big yellow bubble, means there's a lot of remaining vote there. philadelphia as well. in philadelphia county, for instance, let me just show you some of the numbers related to what's outstanding -- 27,000, almost, when we look at pennsylvania. so,

the trump campaign launches legal action to stop vote counting in michigan, pennsylvania and georgia, winning the swing state of pennsylvania is key to winning the white house. but authorities there say the record number of postal votes has put extra pressure on officials, which is why the count has still to be officially declared. 0ur correspondent clive myrie explains. there is an irony in the middle of all of this because in some of all of this because in some of those battleground states where there is a huge contra rosary over the counting of mail—in ballots and absentee ballots, as here in philadelphia and pennsylvania, its republican lawmakers who refused to allow the local authorities, mainly democrats, to start the process of counting those absentee ballots earlier in the election cycle. now, what are we left with? chaos, anger, and recrimination. all this should be redundant now. the election ephemera of the night before. it is the morning after election day. and as we very well knew might be the case, we are still awaiting a result... here in pennsylvania — and a handful of

still too close to call in pennsylvania, georgia, north carolina and nevada. the president would need to take all of those in order to get their 57 electoral college votes to take back the white house. do you think he can do it? >> i think there is a distinct possibility. i also add to that list alaska should have been called a while ago in favor of the president, if you look at this senate numbers, i think as you go into those other states. i think the president will prevail, but i understand it is tight. there will be legal challenges. that is proper. that is right. that is the way to to to solve these issues but the the numbers are certainly pretty good for donald trump that way. although wisconsin and michigan to have those called in favor of joe biden, that's painful. elizabeth: okay. so biden takes wisconsin by less than 1%, just winning michigan. the trump campaign is demanding a recount in wisconsin and is trying to sue to stop counting in michigan before it is called. also filing a lawsuit in pennsylvania to stop the counting there. they want their mo
