The count should therefore be interrupted until sufficient access to the polling stations is guaranteed.

Polling letters that were previously opened without supervision should be counted again under supervision.

Those responsible for holding the election in the important Swing State of

asked the candidates to be patient in the face of the ongoing count.

The Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson told CNN that there were still "hundreds of thousands" of votes, especially from the larger cities.

She expects a lot more clarity later in the day, said Benson.

This state is tilted in the democratic direction by Milwaukee County.

However, only 0.3 percent separate the competitors here.

However, Pennsylvania has until Friday to count the postal votes.

Here, too, the outcome remains open.

A sudden turnaround like in Wisconsin is quite conceivable.

In the Senate, too, the battle over the distribution of seats is extremely tight.

The Democrats currently have 47 seats, as do the Republicans.

But states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan are still missing.

In 2016 the results were as follows:

Update from November 4, 3:55 a.m.:

A majority for Biden, but Trump is far from defeated.

Such is the situation in the early hours of the morning German time.

As in the previous US presidential election, there are indications that the question of who won the election may not be raised until mid-morning or even later.

Update from November 4, 2.30 a.m.:

The

of votes is progressing, but in many states the

In terms of the number of electors, Joe Biden is slightly ahead, but the 2020 US election is far from near its final result.

So it still takes a while until there is an answer to the questions of the day: Who won the US election in 2020?

Who is president

Biden vs Trump: who will win the US election?

Who will be the new President of the USA?

Update from November 3, 11:58 p.m.:

If Donald Trump loses the US election, he could lose more than just the office of US President.

the day in his hometown of Scranton in the embattled state of Pennsylvania *.

, it is still uncertain whether there will be a winner on election evening.

Nevertheless, on Wednesday morning (CET) a tendency should be discernible whether Trump will go into a second term or Biden will be the 46th President of the USA.

Update from November 3, 2:05 p.m.:

When the concrete results will really be available and thus it will definitely be known

, is still questionable.

Since, according to information from the

the number of

voters is expected to be between 50 and 70 percent, much depends on when the votes in the states are counted.

This can drag on for weeks, especially since some countries will also have

that come in a certain time window after election day on November 3rd counted.

In addition, 30 states give their citizens time to correct errors in postal votes that would otherwise invalidate the vote.

First report from November 3rd:

Munich / Washington, DC - On the night of November

(according to German time), the time has come: The fight for the first office in the state is mainly led by the duos

Decision on the 2020 US election: when will there be an (official) result?

Then who is the president?

Who won the election?

Who is president

A decision on the

can

be expected

in

in the early morning hours of November 4th, 2020.

The result of the

Who won the US election?

- Joe Biden and Donald Trump in the running for president

As already mentioned,

and forecasts for the US election 2020

see

two candidates in the selection for the position of president: Joe Biden (Democrat) and Donald Trump (Republican).

The right to vote in the US leads to the absurd situation that the winner of the election is not necessarily the candidate with the most votes.

And will there be chaos?

In the event of a tight election result, or even a loss of the election, Donald Trump announced serious decisions in advance.

He could refuse to recognize the result - the

The focus in the

set slightly different:

While Joe Biden presents his

goals transparently on his own election campaign page, one searches in vain for a concrete election campaign plan on Donald Trump's website.

Will that ultimately affect victory in the US election?

Who won the election?

Will Trump remain president or will he be replaced by Biden?
