Joe Biden has won the electoral votes to dislodge Donald Trump from the White House, according to CNN projections, and will become the 46th President of the United States. More than 74 million people cast votes for Biden and more than 70 million cast votes for Trump. The candidate who got more votes is on pace to win this election, which didn’t happen in 2016. A large portion of the country continued to support Trump despite his impeachment, his personal divisiveness, his courting of racists and more. And while Republicans may not have the White House, they seriously ate into Democrats’ House majority and may yet hold the Senate.
