  • Summary

  • After being told for weeks to not expect to know the results of the 2024 presidential election for days after the polls closed, early this morning it became clear that former President Donald Trump had won. The moment that tipped the race was when NBC News, CBS News, AP News, and Fox News all called the battleground state of Pennsylvania for Trump. Added to his wins in North Carolina, Georgia, and other states he was always expected to win, Trump stood at 267 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win. As of 3 am Eastern time, Trump held a 15-percentage-point lead in Alaska, which has three electoral votes. Trump spoke to the election night watch party in West Palm Beach, Florida around 2:30 am, at almost the same instant that AP News joined other news services in calling Pennsylvania for him. The crowd of thousands attending the watch party of Vice President Kamala Harris at her alma mater Howard University went home after being told just before 1 am Eastern time that Harris wouldn’t be addressing supporters last night.
