Both candidates would need to capture the coveted 270 electoral votes to secure the White House. This analysis is based on the current electoral math, with all the usual caveats that apply in such early stages.
In the previous road to the 2020 election, Joe Biden emerged victorious with 306 electoral votes, while Donald Trump secured 232. However, if we look at the current breakdown of states, Trump appears to have a slight advantage. He stands at 272 electoral votes, with several states solidly in his corner or leaning toward him. On the other hand, Biden currently sits at 225 electoral votes, relying on blue states firmly in his direction or leaning his way.
