The US presidential elections took place on November 5th. The Democratic Party was represented by current Vice President Kamala Harris, and the Republican Party by former President Donald Trump.

Trump, despite expectations of a long and intense struggle, was declared the winner of the US presidential election at about two o’clock in the morning Washington time: according to a number of leading news resources predicting the results, he won in all key states. Trump then addressed supporters in Florida and declared victory.

Trump has further widened his lead over incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris in the Electoral College vote, according to an updated Fox News forecast. According to the channel’s calculations, the Republican already receives 295 electoral votes with the required 270 out of a total of 538. Harris, in turn, still has only 226 votes.
