US election results: Trump and Biden each claim victory as lawsuits brew

Donald Trump and Joe Biden are each claiming victory in Tuesday's White House race, even as the final outcome hangs on a razor's edge and both sides ramp up for legal action.

The Trump campaign is challenging vote counts in the critical states of Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan.

The BBC projects Mr Biden won Michigan. US media forecast he has won Wisconsin. No result has emerged in Pennsylvania.

Winning all three of these Rust Belt states would make Mr Biden victorious.
