As of 1:30 p.m. PT, both President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden have paths to victory, depending on how the remaining battleground states are called.

The pivotal states that are still too close to call are Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
ABC News called Michigan just after 1:30 p.m. as a victory for Biden. The vote in Wisconsin is also very close and hasn't yet been certified, but ABC News is reporting Biden as the apparent winner.
Ways Biden can win
With Biden winning Michigan Wednesday after, per ABC News projections, and the likely winner in Wisconsin, he's at 253 electoral votes. He needs to reach 270 to win, and he has a few ways to get there.
If Biden wins Pennsylvania, which has 20 electoral votes, then he's over the top then and there. But President Trump is leading in Pennsylvania, so that's far from a sure bet for Biden.

He could also make up the missing 17 electoral votes with a combination of any two other outstanding states, like Arizona and Nevada (where he's leading), or one of those plus North Carolina (15 electoral votes), or Georgia (16 electoral votes).
Ways Trump can win
Trump's paths to victory grew more challenging Wednesday afternoon with Biden's projected win in Michigan and his apparent win in Wisconsin. Even if he wins in the outstanding southern states, Georgia and North Carolina, that still puts him about 23 electoral votes shy of victory.
As of 1:45 p.m. PT, Trump has a lead in Georgia, North Carolina and also Pennsylvania. Still, winning all of those puts him just shy of 270, so he'd need to win one more key undecided state to secure reelection, like Arizona or Nevada. That means Trump would need to win nearly all of the still undecided states to clinch the presidency.
When will we know who wins?

It's too soon to say when one candidate will have a decisive victory over the other, but this outcome was expected by political analysts. With a record number of mail-in votes cast, this election was expected to take longer to count than years past.
The most outstanding votes that still need to be counted, as of Wednesday afternoon, are in Pennsylvania.
