Trump Defeats Harris in the 2024 Presidential Election

In a decisive victory, Trump won every swing state that has been called so far

On Wednesday, former president Donald Trump was elected the 47^th president of the United States, toppling Vice President Kamala Harris in a tightly contested race.

Trump will be the next president of the United States. While not every state result has been called, Trump's ability to flip swing states like Georgia and, especially, Pennsylvania led to a decisive victory.
