7 november 2024 в 19:37
Although polls indicated a tense battle between Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, the latter won the 2024 presidential election in the United States. However, voters are questioning whether election officials are recounting the votes, as the process was under scrutiny during the 2020 elections.
In his victory speech, Trump promised to «fight» for «every citizen» every day.
«I will not rest until we deliver a strong, safe, and prosperous America that our children deserve and that you deserve», - he said. «This will truly be America’s golden age, this is what we need to have».
In her farewell speech, Harris revealed that she personally called Trump to congratulate him and discuss a «peaceful transfer of power», - apparently referring to his refusal to accept the results of the 2020 elections and subsequent attacks on the Capitol.
«While I acknowledge defeat in these elections, I do not acknowledge the struggle that fueled this campaign», - the vice president said. «The struggle for freedom, for opportunities, for justice and the dignity of all people; the struggle for the ideals that lie at the heart of our nation, ideals that reflect America in the best light. This is a struggle that I will never give up».

There will be no full recount of votes after the 2024 elections. However, some districts did indeed require a recount. Officials in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, had to recount over 30,000 mail-in votes due to a «human error», - PBS News reported. A representative from the Milwaukee election commission stated that the vote recount was conducted «out of an abundance of caution», - the publication reported.
This recount delayed over 100,000 mail-in votes, according to PBS.
Trump won both the majority of votes in the Electoral College and the popular vote. He received 295 electoral votes, while Harris earned 226, according to the Associated Press. A candidate needs 270 votes to win the presidential election.
As for the popular vote, Trump received 72,656,039 votes, and Harris received 67,978,372, according to AP.
Republicans have taken control of the U.S. Senate, and they have an advantage in the House of Representatives
