MONMOUTH COUNTY, NJ President Donald Trump eked out a win in traditionally red Monmouth County in the 2020 presidential race, but only by a mere 10,500 votes.
In the final vote counts, Trump won Monmouth County with 191,808 votes compared to 181,291 for President-Elect Joe Biden.
In fact, Trump delivered the worst results for a Republican presidential candidate in Monmouth County since 1996, when second-term-seeking Bill Clinton beat Bob Dole in Monmouth County, 122,000 votes to 99,000.
