Americans await announcement of presidential result as counting enters day 3

As election officials work to count the remaining ballots, Americans have been left on the edge of their seats, sitting, watching and waiting for their next president.

Since polls closed on Tuesday, Americans desperate for results have taken to social media, looking for ways to cope with election week anxiety.

Meanwhile, after taking similar legal action in other key battleground states, the Trump campaign has filed a lawsuit in Nevada.

Among the complaints are some that have already been put before the courts and were unsuccessful, including an attempt to stop ballots being counted.

Without providing evidence, the suit claims that irregularities have plagued the election in Clark County, including lax procedures for authenticating mail ballots and over 3,000 instances of ineligible individuals casting ballots.

Trump has repeatedly alleged electoral fraud and irregularities in states in which either Biden is leading, or Trump’s lead is shrinking.

In Nevada, where Biden is currently ahead, Trump supporters had until now been calling for the ballot count to continue, believing that further votes would be uncovered for Trump.
