With his victory on Saturday, Donald Trump improved on his 2016 performance and put Arizona and its 11 electoral votes back in the Republican column following Democrat Joe Biden's 2020 triumph.
In the US presidential election scheduled for November 5, Donald Trump won Arizona on Saturday, completing the Republican's sweep of all seven swing states. Following Democrat Joe Biden's 2020 victory, he kept the state and its 11 electoral votes in the Republican column.The 78-year-old Trump's victory over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris is his second in Arizona since 2016.
The most recent statistics show that Trump has received 312 electoral votes thus far, significantly more than the 270 required to win the White House contest. He garnered 304 electoral votes during his victorious 2016 presidential campaign.
More than half of the 50 states, including swing states Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin—all of which voted Democratic in the most recent election—have proclaimed Trump the victor, according to US media. Nevada and North Carolina, two battleground states, were also won by him.
Despite being impeached twice while in office and having a criminal conviction, he won by larger margins than previously.
In contrast, Harris, who took Biden's place as the Democratic nominee in July when he was 81, is 226.
Democratic and Republican presidents will switch seats for the fourth consecutive term after Donald Trump defeated Kamala Harris. This level of party polarization has not been witnessed in the US since the late 19th century.
Biden will visit Trump at the Oval Office on Wednesday after withdrawing from the campaign due to age concerns.
