When will we know the US election result? ABC elections analyst Antony Green predicts it won't be tonight

in updatesnews •  4 years ago 

The world is waiting for the result of the US presidential election, but it is looking increasingly likely that we will not know tonight.

All states have officially closed their polls and started counting.

President Donald Trump and rival Joe Biden are eyeing off the 270 electoral votes needed to take the White House, and while some results are coming back, a decision in this year's race could take a while.

That's due to an unprecedented number of mail-in and early in-person votes.

It doesn't look like we'll know who has won any time tonight.

ABC election analyst Antony Green has been calling results, and a little before 7:00pm he called 213 votes for Mr Trump with 227 for Mr Biden.

After a busy afternoon, the frequency of updates has begun to slow.

"So still a long way to go … it's quite likely that nobody will get to 270 tonight," Green said.

Arizona was called for Joe Biden just before 7:00pm, taking the Democratic candidate to 238 votes.
The President has retained many states he won in 2016 and the race now seems to rest on the three northern industrial states where Mr Trump most surprised the Democrats four year ago: Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

Green said the gap between Mr Trump and Mr Biden was not large.

"Arizona is the key thing. The Democrats have been declared the winner by Associated Press. If they win Nevada, Wisconsin and Michigan, Joe Biden is at 270 and he is president. He can win without Pennsylvania.

"Now, let's just take Nevada out of the equation because it hasn't been called, but Donald Trump needs to win Georgia, needs to win North Carolina, needs to win Pennsylvania and he then needs to win another state beyond that.

"That's what the loss of Arizona has done."
