Biden has broken the record for the popular vote, and President Trump currently trails by 50 electoral votes.
2020 has been a year that will undoubtedly go down in the history books as one of the most eventful and turbulent years in our recent past. Old headlines pale in comparison to those of 2020, and what better time to be breaking records than this momentous year?
Well, to add more significance to this tumultuous presidential race, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has now broken the record for the highest number of votes ever received at a United States presidential election.
It by no means indicates that this is cut and dry, but according to Associated Press at the time of writing, the 77-year-old former vice president had received 72,110,951 votes, meaning that Biden has eclipsed the 69,498,516 Barack Obama received in the 2008 popular vote.
