From Morning Report, 7:12 am on 5 November 2020

The US presidential election is hanging in the balance.

The outcome depends on a handful of states - Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Nevada.

The results may not be known for days as millions of ballots are still to be counted, and Donald Trump is calling for some states to stop counting and threatening to go to the Supreme Court. 

US correspondent Simon Marks speaks to Susie Ferguson.
