OREANDA-NEWS. As experts warned on the eve of Tuesday's general elections in the United States, the counting of votes in the presidential race is delaying. Nevertheless, this did not prevent both candidates for the presidency from already publicly expressing confidence in their inevitable victory.

Information about the results obtained is still somewhat contradictory. If we rely on the key factor - the number of votes of the members of the electoral college won by both candidates, then Biden is still ahead. He has received 223 such votes to date, according to the Associated Press.

Information about the results obtained is still somewhat contradictory. If the key factor - the number of votes of the members of the electoral college gained by both candidates is taken into account, then Biden is still ahead. He has received 223 such votes to date, according to the Associated Press.

The fact is that in the United States people vote not for the president himself, but for the electoral college. The electors are determined in each state by a single list according to the majority system of the relative majority. Trump now has 174 electoral votes, according to the agency. In other media, these indicators look a little different, but nevertheless, at the moment, the calculations carried out indicate Biden's leadership.

According to the predictions of the absolute majority of political scientists, a fierce struggle between Biden and Trump unfolded in the faltering states. The outcome of this battle will determine who will become the next head of the US administration.
