The USA has chosen its new President and Vice President for the next four years. Although the elections caused significant division across the country, both the popular vote and the Electoral College ultimately determined the winners. The race was very close between the Democratic candidates Kamala Harris and Tim Walz and the Republican candidates Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. However, in the end, the Republican ticket emerged victorious, surpassing the critical 270 electors needed to secure the presidency.
Early on the morning of November 6, former President Donald Trump announced his victory in a speech from Florida, where he was accompanied by key members of his party, including his running mate. The 78-year-old politician expressed his gratitude, stating: «I want to thank you. I will not let you down. America’s future will be greater, better, bolder, richer, safer, and stronger than ever before. God bless you and God bless America. Thank you very much. Thank you very much».
How many votes did Trump receive in 2024?
According to the Associated Press at the time of publication, Donald Trump received 71,813,636 popular votes, which represents 51 percent of the electorate. He also secured 277 Electoral College votes, winning both the popular vote and the necessary electoral count.
Vice President Kamala Harris garnered 66,920,369 votes, or approximately 47.75 percent of the popular vote, as well as 224 Electoral College votes, according to the Associated Press at the time of publication.
According to various sources, including NBC News, Trump’s victory was largely attributed to widespread dissatisfaction with the current state of the economy. Many Americans expressed concerns about financial instability and believed that Trump would better address their economic needs.
As of now, Kamala Harris has not officially conceded defeat in the elections. It is expected that she will make a statement later on November 6, 2024, as reported by Today. Initially, Harris planned to address her supporters at Howard University; however, her team later announced that she would not speak publicly until the day after the elections
