In 2016 the final tally for president topped out at 136 million, which means as of today October 27th more than 50% of the total votes cast last time have already been voted in 2020.
We don't know what the final totals will be, but all non-partisan metrics tell us that even with the increase in Covid-driven early voting the final totals will be well about any previous election. 150+ million votes is not out of the question.
Of course, before making any predictions or popping any corks, we must also consider the effects of: the electoral college, and election day weather, and faulty polling, and a late October surprise, and dead voters in Chicago, and a halloween zombie invasion. Oh and that asteroid!
