Michigan Election Results 2020
Democratic Nominee Joe Biden Wins Michigan
Joe Biden has won the 2020 Michigan presidential election, according to the Associated Press. Biden received 50.6% of the vote, while President Donald Trump received 47.9%. This is a significant victory for Biden, as Michigan is a key battleground state.
Biden's victory in Michigan is a major blow to Trump's reelection hopes. Trump had hoped to win Michigan, which he won by a narrow margin in 2016. However, Biden's strong performance in the state suggests that Trump will have a difficult time winning reelection.
Biden's Victory Margin
Biden's victory margin in Michigan is 154,188 votes. This is a wider margin than Hillary Clinton's victory margin in 2016. Clinton won Michigan by 10,704 votes.
Biden's victory margin is also larger than the margin of error in the polls. The most recent polls showed Biden leading by an average of 7.5 points. This suggests that Biden's victory was not a fluke.
Trump's Performance
Trump's performance in Michigan was disappointing. He received 47.9% of the vote, which is lower than his 47.5% vote share in 2016.
Trump's poor performance in Michigan is likely due to a number of factors. First, Trump's approval rating in Michigan has been low throughout his presidency. Second, Trump's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic has been unpopular in Michigan. Third, Biden's campaign was well-organized and well-funded.
Conclusion
Biden's victory in Michigan is a major boost to his presidential campaign. It suggests that Trump will have a difficult time winning reelection. Biden's victory is also a sign that the Democratic Party is making inroads in rural areas.
