US Presidential Election results 2020: The election result day is finally here. Since yesterday, millions of voters have been flocking to polling sites to cast their ballot in favour of either President Donald Trump or Joe Biden in the world's most significant democratic exercise. While the former seeks to overcome his Democratic rival's lead in opinion polls to win four more years in the White House, Biden has exuded confidence of a big victory in the presidential polls.

The results of one of the most bitterly fought elections in US history have started trickling in now. So far, US President Donald Trump is ahead in Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia. Joe Biden has taken lead in California, Washington, Illinios, Conneticut, Vermont, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware and Virginia.

Biden has now secured 119 electoral votes, while Trump has won 92. A candidate needs to win 270 electoral votes to capture the presidency.

However, the mail-in ballots could take days or weeks to be counted in some states - meaning a final winner might not be declared today, unless a candidate bags a landslide victory.

The states apportioned most electoral votes are California (55), Texas (38), New York and Florida (29 each), and Illinois and Pennsylvania (20 each).
