Biden Confident of Impending Election Victory as Pennsylvania Lead Tops
20,000 Votes

VOA News

   WASHINGTON - Democratic candidate Joe Biden's lead over U.S. President
   Donald Trump in Pennsylvania climbed from 5,000 votes early Friday to
   about 29,000 votes by late night, and that margin is expected to grow
   as remaining ballots are counted. Taking this pivotal state would
   propel Biden over the required threshold of 270 Electoral College votes
   needed to win the presidential election.

   Biden is also ahead in Georgia by more than 4,000 votes and maintains
   clear leads in Arizona and Nevada, although these races have not yet
   been called for either candidate.

   Addressing supporters Friday, amid speculation he would be projected
   the winner in Pennsylvania, Biden stopped short of claiming victory.

   "We don't have a final declaration of victory yet, but the numbers tell
   us a clear and convincing story, we're going to win this race," said
   Biden.
