U.S. President Donald Trump’s lead over Joe Biden in
battleground state of Georgia has been reduced to fewer than 54, 405 votes,
with counting still under way.
Donald Trump has 2,430,156 votes, compared with 2,407,589
for Biden, after 98 percent of the votes were counted.
In percentage terms, Trump has 49.62 to Biden’s 49.15.
If Biden overtakes Trump here, it means he will not even
need to wait for Pennsylvania to reach the threshold of 270 Electoral College
votes.
Georgia has 16 votes for grabs.
At the moment, Biden has 264 electoral votes to Trump’s 214.
The mailed ballots being counted are reportedly from the
heavily Democratic parts of the state, such as Fulton county, which includes
Atlanta.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said he was
pushing counties to complete vote tallies by the end of Wednesday.
Roughly 125,000 ballots remain to be counted on Thursday 5
November.
