(Reuters) -Democrat Joe Biden's journey to the White House is set to cross an important threshold on Monday when the U.S. Electoral College formally picks the winner of November's presidential election amid an effort by President Donald Trump to reverse his loss.
Electors will gather in state capitols across the country on Monday to formally confirm Biden's win.
Below are states where Trump is trying but failing to overturn Biden's victory through lawsuits and a pressure campaign on state officials to throw out the results and declare him the winner. State lawmakers and governors have largely dismissed the idea.

The state's 10 electors will meet in the Wisconsin State Capitol building in Madison at 12 p.m. local time (1800 GMT).
