[Asia Economy New York=Correspondent Baek Jong-min] U.S. President Donald Trump has gone into hiding and is repeatedly demanding a halt to vote counting through tweets. Meanwhile, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, who has gained the upper hand, insists that all ballots must be counted. As conflicts over the election results escalate, each state where counting is underway plans to release additional results.

On the morning of the 5th (local time), President Donald Trump tweeted, "Stop the count!" He then posted, "No ballots received after Election Day should be counted!" Twitter attached a warning label and applied a cover to this post.

According to the White House, as of now, President Trump has no official schedule. After declaring victory during the early counting late at night the previous day and mentioning plans to file a lawsuit with the Supreme Court, he appears to be focusing on preparing responses with close aides rather than making public appearances. Of course, there remains a possibility that President Trump may suddenly hold a press conference depending on the situation.

The Trump campaign has decided to file a lawsuit in Nevada, where Biden is expected to secure the final electoral votes needed to reach 270 in this election. According to U.S. media, the Trump campaign plans to hold a press conference in Las Vegas this morning to claim that more than 10,000 people who do not reside in Nevada voted.

Currently in Nevada, President Trump is making a late surge against Biden. With 86% of votes counted, Biden leads Trump by 0.6%, approximately 80,000 votes, holding 49.3% of the vote. Nevada election authorities plan to announce additional counting results around noon local time.

The Trump campaign also filed lawsuits the previous day in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia. In Wisconsin, they are requesting a recount.

Georgia, where Biden is closely trailing President Trump, is also expected to release updated counting results around noon today.

Meanwhile, after effectively declaring victory the previous day, Biden shared a video emphasizing 100% vote counting along with a tweet stating, "All ballots must be counted," and is reportedly likely to make another statement this afternoon.
