As the 2024 presidential election unfolds, early results indicate significant gains for former President Donald Trump in multiple states.
Donald Trump has secured victories in Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Florida, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Alabama, Mississippi, and South Carolina. These early wins provide Trump with a strong start as the night progresses, particularly with the crucial swing state of Florida in his column.
The polls have closed in many states, and vote counting is well underway.
Meanwhile, Vermont, Massachusetts, and Connecticut are called for Kamala.
West Virginia Governor Jim Justice (R) decisively captured the Senate seat formerly held by retiring Senator Joe Manchin, marking a historic win for the GOP.
This flip signifies the first time in over 70 years that Republicans have held this Senate seat in West Virginia, according
Justice’s resounding win over Democrat Glenn Elliott, the mayor of Wheeling, came as little surprise. With Manchin’s exit from the Democratic Party in May, West Virginia’s Senate seat was seen as one of the GOP’s prime opportunities to expand its influence in the upper chamber.
With this crucial win, the Republican Party now inches closer to reclaiming control of the Senate.
The GOP would still need just one additional seat to secure Senate control.
