Here are the latest vote counts as of midday Friday.
PENNSYLVANIA
President-elect Joe Biden added about 6,000 votes to his total in Pennsylvania, bringing his lead over Trump to just more than 60,000. By Friday morning, 3,404,207 voters in the Keystone State were counted as having cast their ballot for the former vice president, compared to 3,344,150 for Trump. The state believes it still has several hundred thousand ballots left to count.
ARIZONA
Biden leads Trump by 11,434 votes in Arizona, with 1,668,684 votes to 1,657,250 for Trump. Another 10,675 ballots were tallied for the two candidates on Thursday, helping Trump narrow the margin by 201 votes.
An estimated 10,315 ballots have yet to be counted, giving Trump no chance of pulling ahead of Biden in Arizona. Of those, 5,846 are ready for tabulation, 3,259 are provisional ballots that need to be processed, and 1,210 are early ballots awaiting signature verification.
NEVADA
In Nevada, just 140 votes were added to the candidates’ tallies on Thursday, narrowing Biden’s lead by 4 votes to 36,866. Biden has 671,955 votes to Trump’s 635,089. About 60,000 provisional ballots remain.
GEORGIA
In Georgia, Biden’s lead over Trump grew slightly on Friday, up to 14,163 votes from 14,045 on Thursday, with 99% of precincts reporting. Biden has 2,472,083 votes compared to 2,457,920 for Trump, out of about 5 million presidential votes. The margin is still razor-thin, 49.5% to 49.2%. A hand audit of votes began on Friday morning. The state is not expected to deliver updates on the count, only a final tally by next Wednesday’s midnight deadline, two days before the state’s Nov. 20 deadline to certify results.
MICHIGAN
Biden leads by 146,123 votes in Michigan, where the initial results have been completely tabulated. He has captured 50.6% of the vote compared to Trump’s 47.9%. The Trump campaign filed a lawsuit contesting the vote count, and a group of voters is aiming to have more than a million ballots tossed out.
WISCONSIN
In Wisconsin, where the Trump campaign has vowed to initiate a recount effort, Biden leads by 20,540 votes, with 49.6% of the vote, compared to 48.9% for Trump. Canvassing is underway as a prelude to a recount and is expected to be completed next week.
