OCTOBER 20, 2020: _RealClearPolitics_ rates 12 states and two congressional districts as toss-ups heading into the final weeks of Election 2020.[1] ([link removed]) That’s a slightly higher level of competitiveness compared to 2016 when 171 electoral votes were in the toss-up category.[2] ([link removed])

Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of Electoral College ([link removed]) votes.

According to _RealClearPolitics_, former Vice President Joe Biden leads in states with 216 Electoral College votes while President Trump leads in states with 125.[1] ([link removed]) That’s a modestly bigger advantage than former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton enjoyed over Trump four years ago.[2] ([link removed])

Two-hundred seventy electoral votes are needed to win the presidency. To reach that number, Biden must win 27.5% of the toss-ups. To be re-elected, Trump must win 74%.[1] ([link removed])
