Biden Wins Michigan, Wisconsin as Presidential Election Comes Down to a Few States

Joe Biden racked up Electoral College votes that put him within striking distance of the presidency Wednesday evening, while President Trump’s team pursued legal actions to try to blunt the Democrat’s advance and disputed a key call in Arizona.

As Tuesday’s voting turned into a fierce battle over a handful of battleground states, Mr. Biden notched important victories in Wisconsin and Michigan, according to the Associated Press, states Mr. Trump narrowly won in 2016. That put Mr. Biden six electoral votes shy of the 270 needed to win, AP tally showed.
