But Trump has 54.5% and Biden has 45.5% of the weighted valid vote total. Trump leads by 9.1%. No one currently is winning the electoral college vote according to the included polls. But I'm assuming a Trump win. The projected vote differential would be 579,250 in a regular turnout or 605,580 in a high turnout election.

*Based on the following parameters; polls taken in the last 17 days, with a sample size of at least 500 among likely voters, with a margin of error of less than 4.1%, among pollsters rated C- or better, using the Pollster Tracking by FiveThirtyEight.com, and removing 538's allocated pollster bias as well as my calculated temporal pro-Clinton bias vs. actual election results from 2016. States must have at least 2 valid polls to be considered.
I believe that president Trump will win Arizona bring his electoral college total to 261. He could also win North Carolina, New Hampshire, Minnesota and possibly Pennsylvania and Nevada. That gives him a lot of paths to victory. But in any of those states as well as Michigan I expect Democrats to mount legal proceedings to try to discount any of the president's victories.
That means this comes down to a legal battle, and the president will have to win more than 270-something or else it could be stolen. But it's still possible that he gets as high as 326 electoral college votes if the election were held today.
