US Election Results 2024 Live: Voting continues nationwide, first exit poll soon

US Election Results LIVE: Donald Trump won Georgia and North Carolina, leading in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania narrowing Harris’ chances of victory.

2024 US Election Results LIVE: Donald Trump won two swing states and leading in all others, Kamala Harris has won 19 states so far.

2024 US Election Results LIVE: Republican candidate Donald Trump won 27 states including Georgia, North Carolina, Texas, Florida, Indiana, Kentucky and more while Democrat Kamala Harris bagged only 19 states so far as the early projections started streaming in. The counting of ballots is underway in the remaining counties. Trump appears to be heading towards the presidency as he has also won swing states in North Carolina and leading in others, but Harris, however, could still defeat him even if she falls short in these two states, with exactly 270 electoral college votes. Notably, by winning Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, she could achieve a razor-thin margin of victory.…Read More

However, the said outcome is contingent on Harris winning all the non-swing states that Joe Biden won in the 2020 Presidential elections.

Voting is now closed, and ballots have begun counting in many. Early in-person and mail-in votes are expected to be tallied first in most states. Over 82 million people in the country took advantage of early voting to cast their ballots. Follow US election voting live here.

Here is a background on the ongoing 2024 US election Results LIVE:

  • Nationally, there are a total of 538 electoral votes, or electors, meaning a candidate needs to secure 270 to win. In the 2020 elections, President Joe Biden won 306 electoral votes to defeat Trump, who could only manage to garner 232 electoral votes.
  • Besides that, the results of the US presidential elections will decide not only the next president but also which party controls the two chambers of Congress—the Senate and the House of Representatives.
  • Pollsters predict a closely contested race between Trump and Harris, with the outcome likely hinging on key swing states like Pennsylvania, Florida, Wisconsin and others, where just a few thousand votes could tip the scales. This also means it could take some time before a winner could be projected.

  • Earlier on Monday, both Harris and Trump closed their campaign for the president while making their final pitch to voters in Pennsylvania – a state that could prove decisive in deciding who gets to the White House. While Harris focused on optimism about the future and did not mention Trump by name, the Republican nominee criticised his opponent at every turn.

US presidential election 2024: What was the campaign like?

  • The 2024 United States presidential election emerged as one of the most intense and unpredictable in recent history. From Trump’s courtroom conviction, a bullet grazing his ear, a dramatic debate that dashed incumbent President Joe Biden’s hopes of re-entering the White House to Kamala Harris’s last-minute nomination, the campaign has been marked by unprecedented events that captured global attention and made headlines well beyond American borders.
  • Kamala Harris, who could become the first female president if elected, has pledged to address economic concerns and other pressing issues through bipartisan cooperation, aiming to stay largely aligned with the path set by President Joe Biden, Trump has promised to replace thousands of federal workers with loyalists, impose sweeping tariffs on allies and foes alike, and stage the largest deportation operation in US history.

US elects its President through the electoral college. What is that?

Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016 because of the Electoral College. So did George W. Bush in 2000.

The Electoral College is the unique American system of electing presidents. It is different from the popular vote, and it has an outsize impact on how candidates run and win campaigns. Republicans Trump and Bush lost the popular vote during their presidential runs but won the Electoral College to claim the nation’s top office.
