Donald Trump has won the 2024 U.S. presidential election, securing all seven key battleground states. Significant swings toward Trump were noted even in traditionally Democratic areas, with Michigan showing the largest shift of nearly five percentage points. Trump's support increased among various demographic groups, including rural voters and Latino men. He also narrowed the Democratic lead among women and young voters, reducing the gap from 24 points to 11 points among those aged 18 to 29. With these changes, Trump is projected to exceed 300 electoral college votes, surpassing the 270 needed for victory. Votes are still being counted in Nevada and Arizona, but Trump is expected to win there as well.
