06.11.2024The Night Trump Reclaimed Power
Early projections showed Trump winning key states like Florida and Georgia. As the night progressed, battleground states remained too close to call, with Trump leading in several. By midnight, the GOP had secured control of the Senate. Trump's victory became increasingly clear as he won North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Harris delayed her concession, finally calling Trump in the early hours. Biden invited Trump to the White House, signaling the start of the transition. Harris delivered her concession speech in the evening, urging a peaceful transfer of power. Trump's win sparked varied global reactions, with Russia jubilant and European allies cautious. Markets responded positively to the results. Attention shifted to potential cabinet appointments and Trump's day-one agenda, particularly regarding immigration and foreign policy.
Throughout the day, media outlets analyzed the factors behind Trump's comeback and Harris's loss, including shifts in Latino voter support and economic concerns.
