US Election Results: Donald Trump Declares Victory Against Kamala Harris, Promises to “Make America Great Again”

In a remarkable change of events, former President Donald Trump has declared victory in the 2024 presidential election against current Vice President Kamala Harris. As the results rolled in late last night, Trump spoke to supporters at his campaign headquarters in Mar-a-Lago, Florida, oozing confidence and resolve. With critical battleground states shifting in Trump’s favor, the former president lost no time announcing his plans for the future. “Tonight, we take back our country,” Trump said, eliciting shouts from a mob waving flags and shouting his slogan “Make America Great Again.” 

He highlighted his commitment to regenerating the economy, safeguarding borders, and reestablishing law and order. Election night began with much anticipation as polls closed around the country, revealing a close race that left Americans on edge. As of Wednesday morning, Trump leads by a sizable electoral vote advantage, having won critical victories in states such as Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Florida. In her concession remarks, Harris acknowledged the challenges ahead and praised her campaign’s efforts to promote unity and development. “While we may not have won this election, our vision for a more inclusive America will continue to inspire the fight for equality and justice,” she told reporters. 

There are 538 electoral votes, or electors, across the country, which means a contender must obtain 270 of them to win. In the 2020 elections, President Joe Biden earned 306 electoral votes, defeating Trump, who received just 232.

Aside from that, the outcome of the US presidential elections will determine not only the next president but also which party controls both houses of Congress—the Senate and the House of Representatives.

Pollsters forecast a close race between Trump and Harris, with the outcome likely to depend on crucial swing states such as Pennsylvania, Florida, Wisconsin, and others, where a few thousand votes may tip the scales. This also implies that it may be some time before a winner is projected.

The 2024 US presidential election has emerged as one of the most fierce and unexpected in recent memory. The campaign has been marked by unprecedented events that have captured global attention and made headlines far beyond American borders, including Trump’s courtroom conviction, a bullet grazing his ear, a dramatic debate that dashed incumbent President Joe Biden’s hopes of re-entering the White House, and Kamala Harris’s last-minute nomination.

Kamala Harris, who could become the first female president if elected, has pledged to address economic concerns and other pressing issues through bipartisan cooperation, aiming to remain largely aligned with the path set by President Joe Biden. Trump has promised to replace thousands of federal workers with loyalists, impose sweeping tariffs on allies and foes alike, and stage the largest deportation operation in US History.

The Electoral College helped Donald Trump win the presidency in 2016. George W. Bush did the same in 2000.

The distinctive American method of choosing presidents is the Electoral College. It has a significant influence on how candidates run and win campaigns, and it is distinct from the public vote. While losing the popular vote in their presidential campaigns, Republicans Trump and Bush were able to secure the nation’s top office by winning the Electoral College.

Analysts predict that Trump’s major policies will change as he gets ready to take office again, especially in areas like immigration and international affairs. With supporters celebrating and others raising concerns about the ramifications of Trump’s return to the White House, the nation is divided as the globe keenly observes. The American people will once again have to negotiate the political and governmental environment in the wake of this divisive election under the Trump administration.
