The Associated Press has called the 2024 U.S. presidential race, declaring Donald Trump the victor over Democratic rival Kamala Harris. In a stunning political comeback, Trump, who previously served as the 45th president from 2017 to 2021, will now lead the country as its 47th president.
Trump reached the critical 270 Electoral College votes after winning several key battleground states, clinching 277 electoral votes to Harris’s 224. He also secured a majority of the popular vote, with 51%, underscoring the fierce national divide as he steps back into the White House.
Celebrating his victory, Trump took the stage with his family and his vice-presidential pick, JD Vance, to address a crowd of supporters. He called the 2024 election “the greatest political movement of all time” and promised a “golden age for America,” vowing to strengthen national security, revitalize the economy, and pursue policy goals.
This election marks a remarkable comeback for Trump, who faced numerous legal challenges and personal trials throughout his campaign. Over the past few years, he confronted multiple lawsuits and even survived two assassination attempts. However, he emerged victorious, driven by a fervent base and a wave of conservative support across the nation.
