15. The tallies don't tell as much of the story as the comparisons to 2020 do.

Harris is at 68.1 million and will get another few million from CA.

Biden got 81.2 million votes in 2020.

Trump is at 72.8 million and will get another couple million from CA.

Trump got 74.2 million votes in 2020.

Trump will probably exceed his 2020 total. Harris will probably fall 7-8 million short of Biden's 2020 total.
