BREAKING: Trump Cruising Back To The White House
While the results continue to trickle in US election, Donald Trump is in pole position and seemingly on track to complete one of the most remarkable comebacks in presidential history.
The electoral map looks more like 2016, when Trump won, than 2020, when he lost to Joe Biden.
Trump has been projected to win North Carolina and Georgia, the first two of the seven battleground states to be decided. Those victories came on the back of a strong performance in traditional rural areas.
Across the US, in counties that have reported their results, the former president is making noticeable headway.
Kamala Harris is largely matching Joe Biden’s totals in the urban and suburban counties, but so far it has not been enough for her to close the gap with the former president.
All eyes are again turning to the Democratic “Blue Wall” states along the Great Lakes, where Trump has also built narrow leads. There are indications that Harris is not meeting Democratic expectations in the urban and suburban areas of those states, either, and that could be the difference between victory and d noefeat.
In close presidential elections, key battleground states tend to break in one direction. So far, the movement has been toward the Republicans – both for Donald Trump and for many of the party’s top Senate candidates.
At Trump’s election-watch party in Mar-a-Lago, the mood is festive. At Howard University, where Harris faithful have gathered, the situation is tense.
If the current electoral trends continue, former president Trump will be on his way toward becoming president-elect Trump.
