The results of the US presidential election are slowly coming in after the polls. US media is announcing state-wise results. According to the latest update of the results, Republican candidate Donald Trump won in Florida and Democrat candidate Kamala Harris won in Massachusetts.
BBC and Voice of America reported this information on Wednesday. As a result, Trump is leading by getting 162 Electoral College votes. And Kamala Harris got 62 Electoral College votes.
Basically the results have been uneventful so far. The results seen in the states of the country were expected to be similar.
There are a total of 538 Electoral College votes in the 50 states and the District of Columbia, and the candidate who receives 270 Electoral College votes will be elected. However, in the light of last year's public opinion polls and past elections, the results of 43 states are fairly certain.
And seven states—Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Nevada and North Carolina—were undecided. These states are called 'swing states' and have a total of 93 electoral votes.
That is, a candidate must win at least four of these seven swing states to win the election.
