We thought we would have a winner by now
Why is the American Election taking so long to pick a winner?
Good Afternoon Sense-ibles,
We normally send our community updates on Thursdays and after our Election Night coverage on Wednesday (watch here), we thought we would be able to announce the President of the United States. Unfortunately, this isn't the case. We have been waiting for the major news outlets to call it but none have called it so far.
Here is what we know right now.
The race for the White House is coming down to who wins the few remaining battleground states - Georgia, Pennsylvania, Nevada and Arizona.
A win in just Pennsylvania or two of the other four remaining states would be enough to confirm Mr Biden as president-elect, barring any legal challenge.
Mr Trump, meanwhile, needs to win Pennsylvania and three of the remaining four states.
