*川普還有任何其他法律途徑推翻選舉結果嗎?在賓州,川普團隊仍未放棄訴訟。在以下幾州,川普已經在法律訴訟失敗。
■ In Michigan, the Trump campaign filed a federal lawsuit to block the certification of results in Wayne County, citing complaints from poll watchers - but this was dropped after a similar challenge was rejected at state-level
■ In Arizona, a lawsuit claimed some legal votes were rejected, citing problems with voting machines - but Arizona's Secretary of State said this was "grasping at straws", and the suit was dropped
■ In Georgia, an attempt was made to stop the count in Chatham County, alleging problems with ballot processing - but the lawsuit was rejected by a judge who said there was "no evidence" of improper ballot mixing
■ In Nevada, a suit asked that Mr Trump be named the winner in the state or that the results be void with no winner certified, alleging illegal voting. This was rejected by the state's Supreme Court, stating there was "no credible or reliable evidence" of fraud
■ In Wisconsin, Trump's legal team have argued around 220,000 ballots were unlawfully cast, as they seek to overturn the result there. The suit has been rejected by the state's Supreme Court

2020 us election in michigan 在 文茜的世界周報 Sisy's World News Facebook 的最佳貼文
《紐約時報》11/8
*美國總統選舉之後第五天,拜登跨過門檻,拿下賓州,內華達州,當選美國總統。
拜登於各大媒體包括美聯社、英國BBC及FOX皆宣布其優勢後八小時,美東時間晚間發表演說:「該是癒合傷口,面對疫情,團結這個國家的時刻。」賀錦麗成為美國第一位女性副總統,她在拜登之前致詞,「你們選擇了尊嚴、團結,這是真的。」
https://www.nytimes.com/live/2020/11/07/us/biden-trump/biden-makes-his-first-remarks-to-the-nation-as-president-elect
Joseph R. Biden Jr., a 77-year-old former vice president and longtime senator who has sought the White House on and off for more than three decades, on Saturday renewed his commitment to unifying and serving all Americans at a time the nation is deeply divided along sharply drawn partisan lines.
In a roughly 17-minute address, Mr. Biden, speaking for the first time as president-elect, promised to lead with compassion, decency and character and heal the nation’s soul. As he has for months, Mr. Biden also promised to immediately address the coronavirus pandemic and work to stop its spread, an effort he said would be key to economic recovery.
And to conclude, he returned to the idea that there is nothing Americans can’t do if they work together.
“Let us be the nation that we know we can be,” he said. “A nation united, a nation strengthened, a nation healed.”
Here is a transcript of Mr. Biden’s remarks as they were prepared for delivery.

*美國現任總統川普拒絕接受敗選,準備打一連串官司。

*拜登目前贏得至少273張選票,美聯社估算目前為284張選舉人團票。但拜登及川普的得票皆創歷史新高,全國選票雙方差距僅2.8%。如此「毛髪般」微弱的勝利,對拜登的下一任期,充滿危機及民間、反對黨隨時反撲。他的勝利,也是他的危險開始。
*川普支持者拒絕接受選舉結果,多州議會大廈前出現遊行,抗爭之後轉為激進,對不同意見者拳打及施以胡椒噴霧。
