Donald Trump and Joe Biden's battle for the US presidency climaxed on Tuesday.

The tight race made every vote count as both sides sensed victory.

The pandemic meant early and postal voting was widespread.

This led to more people voting than ever before.

This democratic success has been challenged in several states.

Republicans limited voting places and claimed postal votes were illegal.

With many crucial votes not decided, President Trump made his own victory announcement.

He's accused states of election fraud without evidence.

Trump's legal team is attempting to throw out millions of ballots.

Mr Biden criticised President Trump's behaviour, saying the public were in charge.

The president isn't the person who receives the most votes.

Candidates are given 'electoral college' votes for each state they win.

George W Bush and Donald Trump became president although more people voted for their opponent.

Biden has broken the popular vote record, but the result was too close to call.
