President-elect Donald Trump has claimed victory in the U.S. presidential election, amassing 312 electoral votes, according to projections by major U.S. networks. This total far exceeds the 270 required to win the presidency, leaving Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris with 226 electoral votes.
Trump’s path to victory was cemented by flipping Arizona’s 11 electoral votes, marking a decisive shift in a state that backed Joe Biden in 2020. The win in Arizona completes Trump’s sweep of all seven key swing states, including crucial battlegrounds such as Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin—states that had favored the Democrats in the previous election.
