Anyone running as democrat is automatically in the lead since the most populous states with the richest Electoral College yields are Democratic, Joe Biden, the Democratic candidate, starts out with an advantage of having 227 votes. This means he just needs 43 more to clinch the election and become America’s 46th president.

You may have seen statistics that Biden has an 89 percent chance of winning — this is since he has so many more options of getting to 270 votes. He can get this by taking Florida’s 29 votes and North Carolina’s 15 to get 44 votes. Or he can take Pennsylvania’s 20 votes, plus Michigan’s 16 and Wisconsin’s 10.

I never knew that, that's really interesting. Is it smart to bet on Republican winning next time an election similar to this happens? Similar as in a republican is running for their second term or the Republican candidate is controversial but loved by the Republican party.
