Joe Biden’s campaign is continuing to watch results coming in tonight, including in Pennsylvania as they hope the state could put them over 270 electoral votes.

As they watched the margins in Georgia and Pennsylvania grow, supporters started the day hoping that today would be the day the race would be called in Biden’s favour, but reality has sunk in for many that the moment is taking a bit longer to come.

The public activity from the campaign today has been night and day compared to that of the previous three days.

There was no election briefing from the campaign’s top advisers today. There have been no tweets from Biden or his running mate Kamala Harris.

Biden last spoke to the American people more than 26 hours ago as he urged calm and patience as the vote count continues.

If Biden wins Pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes, that would take him over 270. According to CNN's latest projections, Biden currently has 253 electoral votes to Trump's 213.
