How Joe Biden won over 270 electoral college votes (State by state details)

 

Finally the American networks and AP on Saturday declared Joe Biden as the 46th President of the United States, beating Donald Trump, the incumbent.

The declaration followed Biden’s victory in his home state of Pennsylvania, one of the battle ground states.

 

AP and the networks gave the state to Biden, who held a 30,952-vote lead over Trump, after they determined that the remaining ballots left to be counted would not allow Trump to catch up.

 

While CNN gave Biden 273 electoral college votes, the AP gave him 284, both far more than the 214 won by Trump.
