In the US elections, the candidate who reaches 270 delegates wins and will be the next US president.
Democratic White House candidate Joe Biden will win elections in the state of Michigan, which will allow him to extend his advantage over Republican rival Donald Trump, as projected by CBS, CNN, FOX and NBC.
With the 16 delegates that fit Michigan at the Electoral College, Biden will add 264, against the 214 that Trump counts, according to national chains, cited by the agency EFE.
The FOX chain, very close to the Donald Trump campaign, has already assigned the 16 delegates to the Democratic candidate, but the result is not yet official.
