Donald Trump wins 2024 US presidential election with strong support in battleground states
Donald Trump won the 2024 U.S. presidential election, defeating Kamala Harris. His victory was marked by strong performances in battleground states and a significant lead in the national popular vote. The Republican Party also regained control of the Senate. Key factors in Trump's success included strong support in rural areas and a focus on economic issues. Many voters felt worse off financially compared to four years ago, which influenced their choice. Additionally, Trump gained more support from Latino voters, increasing his share to 45%. Trump's improved performance compared to 2020, particularly in swing states, contributed to his decisive win. His supporters prioritized economic and immigration issues, while Harris's base focused on a wider range of topics.
