While addressing supporters at the Palm Beach County Convention Center, where a watch party is being held, former President Donald Trump claimed victory in his speech: “I want to thank the American people for extraordinary honor to be elected your 47th president,” he said. said. (ABC News has not yet predicted he would have won, but he is very close to winning 270 electoral votes.)

ABC News projects that Trump will win Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral votes, putting him on track to win at least 270 electoral votes and the presidency. He now has 266 electoral votes, and although ABC News has not yet predicted the three electoral votes in Alaska or one vote in Maine’s 2nd Congressional District, his advantage so far tonight suggests he is more than likely to do so. Additionally, he leads by varying margins in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin.

Trump’s impending victory is historic for a multitude of reasons. He is only the second former president to lose re-election, then return four years later to win back the White House (Democrat Grover Cleveland was the first during the period 1884 to 1892). He also won despite various personal legal problems unprecedented for a major party presidential candidate. It remains to be seen whether Trump will return to power with his party in full control of government: ABC News has predicted that the Senate will go Republican, but the House remains in limbo at this late (or especially early) hour.

The ABC News Decision Desk predicted that Donald Trump would win Pennsylvania’s 19 Electoral College votes.

Vice President Kamala Harris will not speak on election eve Wednesday morning, according to Harris campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond, who took the stage at a Harris watch party at Howard University.
