The Democrat Joe Biden won the state of Pennsylvania and with it the presidential election in the USA. This emerges from consistent forecasts by CNN and the AP news agency. A forecast by the news agency AP and the broadcaster CNN ends the period of uncertainty, at least for the time being: They have declared the Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden the winner in the key state of Pennsylvania. This means that Biden has enough electors together to have won the overall presidential election. This was preceded by a big race to catch up in the counting of votes. Trump was still ahead with more than 600,000 votes on Wednesday morning (local time). That was because in Pennsylvania the votes from election day were counted first – and the majority voted for Trump. The early voters, who were more likely to vote for Biden, were not evaluated until later. In the 2016 election, Trump was able to narrowly prevail in Pennsylvania. He was just 0.7 percentage points ahead of his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.

The announcement of the election result by CNN and AP is not official – comparable to the “preliminary official final result” of a federal election. However, this practice is common in the United States, where the results of state elections are followed and announced by the major media organizations. The official, official election result will be some time in coming. The further procedure looks like this: On December 14th, the electors meet in the capitals of the individual states to cast their votes. Until then, the incumbent US President Donald Trump would have time to challenge the election result. The results of the election of the “electoral college” must arrive in Washington December 23rd. The new president will be sworn in on January 20th.
