Election 2024: Results and Analysis

Early Results Show Tight Races in Key States

As of 8:00pm EST, the results of the 2024 US presidential election are still coming in, but early results show tight races in key states such as Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio.

In Florida, incumbent President Donald Trump is leading Democratic challenger Joe Biden by a narrow margin of 51% to 49%.

In Pennsylvania, Biden is leading Trump by a slightly wider margin of 53% to 47%.

Biden Wins Key States, Securing Victory

As results continued to come in throughout the night, it became clear that Biden had secured enough electoral votes to win the presidency.

Biden's victory was largely due to his strong performance in key swing states such as Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

Trump's campaign had focused heavily on these states, but Biden's message of unity and healing resonated with voters who had grown weary of the division and chaos of the Trump presidency.

Trump Concedes Defeat, Transition Begins

Shortly after midnight EST, Trump conceded defeat and pledged to cooperate with the transition of power.

Biden thanked Trump for his service to the country and vowed to work with him to ensure a smooth transition.

The transition of power is expected to take place on January 20, 2025.
