Exactly. 270 gives you a mandate to lead

That said, if you want a mandate for change, you need to win enough of a majority in both houses of congress

A Electoral College landslide with a supermajority in Congress. Nobody has had a real mandate since 1964.
Reagan 1980 and Obama 2008 clearly had mandates going into office for change

After the Georgia runoffs, I think President Biden got a mandate for more stimulus and a larger recovery package.
