US Elections: Trump wins in historic comeback

Donald Trump has secured over the 270 Electoral College votes required to return to the White House for a second term, following his previous tenure from 2017 to 2021.

This win makes Trump the confirmed victor of the 2024 U.S. presidential election.

In the early hours of Wednesday, November 6, 2024, Trump took the stage to declare victory after projections showed him winning crucial battleground states, including Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia. Shortly after, the Associated Press projected Wisconsin in his favour, solidifying his path back to the presidency.

“We made history for a reason tonight, and that reason is overcoming obstacles no one thought possible,” he said, calling it “the most incredible political achievement.”

With wins in these critical states, Trump’s victory appeared certain.

“It’s real!” shouted a young supporter who rushed to the front of the crowd, high-fiving friends and strangers in excitement.

Joined by family members—including daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner, who had been absent during much of the campaign—as well as aides and supporters, Trump expressed gratitude to his followers and promised a prosperous era for the country.

Polls across the country closed on November 5, with voting proceeding smoothly overall. A candidate needs at least 270 Electoral College votes to win the presidency.

Meanwhile, the candidate for the candidate for the Democrats, Kamala Harris, is yet to concede her loss.
