Jen O'Malley Dillon, Biden campaign chief of staff, said in a virtual briefing on the 4th (local time) that Biden is on the path to victory in the fight against President Donald Trump. Dillon said that Biden is expected to secure more than 270 electoral votes, a majority, later that day and win.


Dillon predicted victories for Biden in the northern Rust Belt states of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. In Michigan and Wisconsin, although President Trump led Biden by a significant margin in the early counting, as the count exceeded 90%, Biden overtook President Trump.


In Pennsylvania, with 78% of the votes counted, President Trump leads by about 10%, but considering the remaining mail-in ballots to be counted and additional mail-in ballots to be received, Biden's chances of winning cannot be ruled out.


If Biden wins these three states, he can secure more than 270 electoral votes and win.


However, since President Trump raised strong doubts about mail-in voting through Twitter on the same day, suggesting the possibility of refusal to concede, the possibility of legal battles remains.



The Trump campaign has not just been watching. Bill Stepien, Trump campaign manager, claimed, "We will count all legally cast votes. We believe the president will win." He also emphasized that media reports mentioning Biden's victory in Arizona are incorrect and that "President Trump will win here by more than 30,000 votes."
