Usa 2020, Biden one step away from the White House: eyes on Nevada

Biden: “We’ll be the winners when the count is over” In the early evening of Wednesday Biden reappeared at the Chase Center in Wilmington, Delaware: it has not yet been time to claim victory but the Democratic candidate seems to have taken the stage in a sort of dress rehearsal as president. “I am not here to declare that we have won but to tell you that when the count is over we believe we will be the winners,” he said.

“No one snatches our democracy from us, neither today nor ever. Yesterday it was proved once again that democracy is the heart of this nation. Even in times of pandemic an unprecedented number of Americans voted, Biden added. never doubted it, no more doubts: here the power is in the hands of the people and it is the people who determine who is the president of the United States “, he added.

Trump returns to stir the specter of fraud Donald Trump, however, does not fit. And while the 2020 election campaign has been one of the most tense and divisive in recent history, the post-election risks being even worse, with the prospect of an endless legal battle over voting by mail and ballot counting, and a uncertainty that is feared could also lead to social tensions and unrest. Trump’s main threat is the appeal to the Supreme Court, the one that he himself has armored in four years with the appointment of three conservative judges, shaping a majority of six to three that puts the liberal wing of the High Court in a clear minority.

“They are stealing the elections from us, we will not allow it,” attacked the president, challenging the continuation of the ballot in Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin. “Last night I was firmly in the lead in many decisive states. Then, one by one, the advantages magically disappeared,” he tweeted, possibly referring to overtaking Biden in Michigan and Wisconsin and also denouncing what he called an avalanche of cards. arrived “by surprise” in the polling stations.

Towards legal action in Michigan, Georgia and Pennsylvania Meanwhile, his campaign has announced a lawsuit in Michigan, Georgia and Pennsylvania to immediately suspend the counting of votes until the president’s staff are granted significant access to the polling rooms to check that everything goes smoothly. And it is also ready to ask for a recount of the votes in Wisconsin.

Biden is the most voted candidate ever If Biden cannot yet celebrate the conquest of the White House, he can however boast the title of the most voted candidate ever in the history of the American presidential elections. With his over 70 million votes he beat Barack Obama, who in 2008 had won 69,498,516. Donald Trump has grossed just over 68 million votes so far.
