NEW YORK (Reuters) - Nearly 80% of Americans, including more than half of Republicans, recognize President-elect Joe Biden as the winner of the Nov. 3 election after most media organizations called the race for the Democrat based on his leads in critical battleground states, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.

Biden - who needed 270 Electoral College votes to win - had 279 of those votes to 214 for Trump with results in three states not yet complete, according to Edison Research. In the popular vote, Biden got 76.3 million, or 50.7% of the total, to 71.6 million, or 47.6%, for Trump.

The Reuters/Ipsos national opinion survey, which ran from Saturday afternoon to Tuesday, found that 79% of U.S. adults believe Biden won the White House. Another 13% said the election has not yet been decided, 3% said Trump won and 5% said they do not know.

The results were somewhat split along party lines: about six in 10 Republicans and almost every Democrat said Biden won.

1. Including the majority of Republicans.

They occasionally do show that they're capable of critical thinking once in a while.

2. Very important poll,

Thanks. Hard to undermine an election when the majority of your own party think you lost.

3. Yeah, it's over. The will of the people has been determined.

Stop paying attention to the rantings of a self-deluded clown and a few of his sycophants.

4. If I were in their shoes

I would seriously consider shock therapy. But, after that, I would just want it to be over with already. 'We lost, let's just move on and quit the whining.' Or, words to that effect. I've felt that way a few times with past elections. I just wanted to forget about it and get on with life.
