Donald Trump won the 2020 election.

Joe Biden has won the 2020 U.S. election; the projected results stood at 306 electoral college votes for Biden and 232 for President Donald Trump.

Joe Biden has won the 2020 U.S. election; the projected results stood at 306 electoral college votes for Biden and 232 for President Donald Trump.The 2020 United States Presidential election was held on November 3, 2020. Joe Biden secured 306 electoral college votes, winning the previously Republican states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. He will formally assume the U.S. leadership in January 2021 when Congress officially counts the state electoral votes.

Trump secured only 232 votes. He has, so far, refused to accept the results of the elections. He had filed lawsuits in various states, asking for recounts and making false claims of voter fraud. However, election officials have said that the 2020 elections were one of the most secure in recent history, and there is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised. Currently, election officials are reviewing and double-checking the entire election process before finalizing the country's result. Moreover, on November 16, three attorneys representing President Trump's campaign withdrew from a lawsuit challenging the Pennsylvania election results.

Biden is now being commonly referred to as the president-elect since he has won a tight election and is, therefore, the presumptive 46th President of the United States.
