The latest figures showed that the fortunes of the US Democratic presidential candidate, Joe Biden, have strengthened after his progress in Pennsylvania and Georgia, which is expected to be recounted, while messages of skepticism continue from the campaign of Republican President Donald Trump in the screening process, and Trump has pledged a legal battle.
And the Democratic Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, said, “It is clear that Joe Biden is heading to win the White House.”
She used “the president-elect” when talking about Biden, a phrase usually given to the winner of the election until he takes office on January 20.
For his part, the mayor of Philadelphia expressed his belief that Biden would win the state of Pennsylvania, according to the numbers he had seen.
In light of the successive numbers that are going in Biden’s favor, the media have reported that additional protection will be provided to him after he is around the corner or near the White House.
CNN reported that the US Civil Aviation Authority restricts air traffic over Biden’s residence and campaign headquarters in Delaware.
Sources close to Biden’s campaign stated that he would deliver a speech to the Americans tonight, coinciding with his progress in the states of Nevada, Pennsylvania and Georgia, and pictures showed preparations in Wellington for this speech.
Biden’s campaign confirmed that the United States government is able to remove what it described as infiltrators from the White House, in reference to the declared positions on the Trump campaign.
Biden is ahead of Trump in Georgia by 1,016 votes after 99% of the vote has been counted, although the counting processes are still continuing, according to the Associated Press.
And if Biden – who has so far won 264 votes in the electoral college – manages to obtain the 16 votes for this state, he will deprive Trump of the opportunity to reach the 270 votes needed for him to win a second term.
