Entry into the White House is imminent What does Trump still need to win?
Donald Trump is on the verge of moving into the White House. Theoretically, one state is now enough for him to win.
No time? blue News summarizes for you
- Donald Trump is about to enter the White House.
- The decision will be made in the swing states.
- All the signs there are pointing to Trump.
Republican Donald Trump has won the two contested states of North Carolina in the US presidential election, taking the first big step towards his return to the White House.
Things are now getting really tight for Democrat Kamala Harris: it will be even more important to win the important state of Pennsylvania, where Trump is ahead by over 200,000 votes after 90% of all votes have been counted.
If he wins all three of these swing states, Trump is sure to win. Because then Trump only needs the votes from Maine and Nebraska - and the Republican is guaranteed to have them. But even if the Democrats win Pennsylvania, it will be extremely difficult for Harris.
Harris no longer wants to speak today
Because Trump now has numerous opportunities to win the election. For example, the Republican can also make everything clear with a victory in Michigan and Arizona. A majority in Arizona and Wisconsin is also enough. In total, there are now six combinations with which Trump can secure his entry into the White House.
Also alarming for Harris: after 58% of the votes had been counted, Trump was also leading in Michigan with a good 52% and in Wisconsin with around 51% after 84% of the votes had been counted. It was unclear whether Harris would be able to catch up with this lead.
The New York Times now predicts a 95% probability of victory for Donald Trump. The Republican wants to address his supporters later in the night. Kamala Harris, on the other hand, does not want to address the nation until tomorrow.
