Joe Biden, the Democratic candidate in the U.S. presidential
election has extended his lead in Nevada by over 11,000 votes over incumbent
President Donald Trump.
According to latest results released in the state, Biden now
has 604,251 votes, while Trump has 592,813 votes.
Nevada, which has six electoral college votes, is important
for Biden, since going by AP Projection, he already has 264 votes.
Other networks, such as CNN and MSNBC are yet to call
Arizona, giving Biden 253 votes and Trump 214.
But the AP on Wednesday gave the state to Biden, along with
11 electoral votes.
A win for Biden in Nevada, will thus give him the 270
electoral college votes he needs to become US president.
In Arizona, Biden leads with 1,469,341 votes.
Trump has 1,400,951 votes, with 88 per cent of votes
counted.
Meanwhile, Biden is also cutting into President Trump’s lead
in Georgia.

votes.
Trump has 2,436,006 votes, while Biden has 2,422,467.
The state has 16 electoral college votes.
The race in Pennsylvania was also narrowing on Wednesday, as
Trump campaign won a court order to allow election observers get closer to the
counting area.
Trump leads with 3,228,960 votes, while Biden has shrunk the
over 600,000 gap on Tuesday, having now garnered 3,113, 889 votes.
