In Wisconsin, Democratic nominee Joe Biden took a small lead around 4:30 am New York time, as several metropolitan areas submitted their absentee ballot counts. The president, who carried Wisconsin by 0.8 percentage points in 2016, trailed Biden in by 0.3 percentage points in the latest figures with some precincts still outstanding. Due to laws barring the processing of mail-in ballots before Election Day, election officials in Michigan and Pennsylvania have said it may take until Friday to count all the ballots. Officials in Georgia and Wisconsin said they expect their larger cities to be done counting by Wednesday. "Never before in our history has a president of the United States sought to strip Americans of their voice in a national election."
