[Asia Economy New York=Correspondent Baek Jong-min] Reports have emerged that Joe Biden, the Democratic presidential candidate, is expected to declare victory within the day on the 4th. While President Trump's camp is emphasizing recounts and election fraud, the Democratic camp is expected to respond with an aggressive victory declaration.

CNN reported on the 4th (local time) that Anita Dunn, an advisor to the Biden campaign, said, "The moment the campaign believes it has secured 270 electoral votes, Biden will declare victory." She expressed confidence in securing the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidential election.

When asked whether they would declare victory without media calls on the results from all states, Dunn emphasized, "If the campaign is confident that Biden has secured 270 votes, they will do so."

Despite trailing in the vote count on election night, Biden said after the polls closed, "We are on the path to victory. Not all votes have been counted." Subsequently, with a large number of mail-in ballots being counted, Biden is leading in key battleground states such as Michigan and Wisconsin. The New York Times forecasts that if Biden wins Pennsylvania as well, his election is highly likely.
