In the 2024 U.S. election, Donald Trump has emerged victorious in South Carolina, securing 59% of the votes against Kamala Harris, who garnered 40%. Meanwhile, in California, as ballots continue to be counted, Harris leads Trump with 57.8% to 39.7%, but Trump has acquired enough electoral votes to be declared the winner nationwide. The Associated Press has called numerous congressional races, confirming Republican control of the U.S. Senate. Amidst the ongoing counting, the Harris campaign is urging staff to rest, with hopes of closing the gap through remaining ballots in battleground states. Tensions are rising as Trump’s campaign claims a decisive victory while media outlets hesitate to formally call the election due to outstanding votes, particularly in crucial states like Wisconsin and Michigan. The election reflects deep partisan divides and uncertainty as the final results remain pending in several key areas.
