Biden wins Michigan, nears 270 electoral votes

Associated Press  

LANSING, Mich. — Democrat Joe Biden has carried Michigan and its 16 electoral votes, further dismantling Donald Trump’s Rust Belt wall of support that helped deliver him the presidency four years ago. Biden’s victory in Michigan — he was up Wednesday night by about 134,000 votes, or nearly 2.5 percentage points, out of 5.5 million cast — pushes him to 264 Electoral College votes, six short of the 270 needed to win the White House. Despite needing to win Michigan, Trump took frequent swipes at the state’s Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer, who was the target of an alleged kidnapping plot that was foiled by federal law enforcement. In the 3rd Congressional District in western Michigan, Republican Peter Meijer won the contest to succeed retiring Rep. Justin Amash, a Trump critic who left the GOP last year and later joined the Libertarian Party.
