The winner in each state is awarded that state's electoral votes, a number roughly proportional to the population. Trump's campaign has filed lawsuits in a number of states with scant success so far. Trump has a dwindling number of options to overturn the results of an election in which Biden won 5.8 million more votes nationwide. In Wisconsin, the Trump campaign has paid for or a partial recount, even though election officials there say that will likely only add to Biden's 20,000-vote advantage in a state that carries 10 electoral votes. Trump, who has largely stayed in the White House and kept out of public view since the election, has no public events scheduled for Thursday.
