Joe Biden’s Lead Over Trump Surges in Pennsylvania
CLOSER AND CLOSER
Joe Biden’s lead in Pennsylvania grew to 30,908 votes by mid-morning Saturday, as the former vice president added 2,431 votes and President Donald Trump added 356 in the latest dump of ballots to be counted. The state continues to tabulate the results of the presidential elections, which saw unprecedented mail-in voting. Biden’s Saturday-morning lead prompted most news outlets to call the race, including NBC and CNN. The Pennsylvania Secretary of State said that the counting of ballots would continue into Saturday. If the margin between the two candidates is less than .5 percentage points, Pennsylvania law mandates a recount, though Biden is poised to eclipse that gap as more votes from metropolitan areas are counted.
