Donald Trump has been elected the 47th president of the United States, an
extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat four
years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was convicted of
felony charges and survived two assassination attempts.
Here’s what to know:
* Electoral vote count: Trump’s win in Wisconsin put him over the 270 threshold
needed to clinch the presidency. See the results.
* Trump’s victory speech: In earlier election remarks at Florida’s Palm Beach
Convention Center, Trump vowed not to rest “until we have delivered the
strong and prosperous America.”
* How does the AP call races? Instead of relying on crowd-sourcing or
vulnerable technology, our 50-state network of local reporters have
first-hand knowledge of their territories and trusted relationships with
county clerks and other local officials. Read more about the AP’s role in
elections.

* Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba congratulated Trump on Wednesday for
his victory in the presidential election and said he hopes to get in touch
with him as soon as possible to discuss ways to further strengthen Japan-U.S.
ties. “I hope to closely cooperate with President-elect Trump to further
elevate Japan-U.S. alliance and relations to even higher levels,” Ishiba told
reporters at the Prime Minister’s Office.
* South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said he looked forward to working with
Trump. “Under your strong leadership, the future of the ROK-U.S. alliance and
America will shine brighter,” Yoon wrote on the social platform X, using the
initials of South Korea’s formal name, the Republic of Korea. In response to
growing threats posed by nuclear-armed North Korea, Yoon’s government has
worked closely with the Biden administration to strengthen the countries’
combined military exercises and solidify three-way military cooperation with
Japan.
* Jordan’s King Abdullah II congratulated Trump, saying in a post on X that he
was “looking forward” to working with Trump “in service of regional and
global peace and stability for all.” Jordan has been a key mediator for the
U.S. over the past year as officials have sought to reach a cease-fire deal
between Israel and Hamas.

Bitcoin jumped nearly 8% to a record $75,345.00 in early trading on Wednesday,
before falling back and was recently trading at around $73,700.00.
Trump was previously a crypto skeptic but changed his mind and embraced
cryptocurrencies ahead of the election.
He pledged to make America “the crypto capital of the planet” and create a
“strategic reserve” of bitcoin. His campaign accepted donations in
cryptocurrency and he courted crypto fans at a bitcoin conference in July.
He also launched World Liberty Financial, a new venture with family members to
trade cryptocurrencies.

Trump won an election that will return him to the White House by winning
Wisconsin, the same state that put him over the top when he won in 2016. The
difference again came in Milwaukee, after nearly every other county in the state
had wrapped up their count. The early morning update in Milwaukee cut into
Trump’s lead, but not by enough that it would provide Harris with a path to
victory.

Despite major losses for Democrats in the Senate and White House, the party’s
central campaign issue surrounding protecting reproductive rights fared much
better across the country as abortion rights advocates won on measures in seven
states.
The last state to pass such a measure by early Wednesday was Montana, where
abortion rights advocates pushed to enshrine abortion rights until fetal
viability into the state constitution as a safeguard against future rollbacks.
Though there’s no defined time frame, doctors say viability is sometime after 21
weeks.
In three others — Florida, Nebraska and South Dakota — voters rejected measures
that would have created a constitutional right to abortion.

Montana voters chose to protect the right to an abortion in their state
constitution.
The ballot initiative sought to enshrine a 1999 Montana Supreme Court ruling
that said the constitutional right to privacy protects the right to a
pre-viability abortion by a provider of the patient’s choice. Though there’s no
defined time frame, doctors say viability is sometime after 21 weeks.
The Associated Press declared the amendment was approved at 6:01 a.m. EST
Wednesday.

Some people who lined up before polls closed waited hours in frigid, snowy
weather to cast their votes. Roughly 200 people were still in line after
midnight at the courthouse in Gallatin, one of the state’s largest counties,
some four hours after polls closed.
By 3 a.m., about 20 people remained. Election officials did not plan to begin
releasing results until every voter had gone through.
“I’m tired,” Tatyana Deshields, 22, said after she’d waited in line for more
than four hours with some friends. “They had to tap me to tell me to keep
moving.”

at a dinner event in Davos, Switzerland during the World Economic Forum in
January 2020.

There was a sense of disappointment in Thulasendrapuram, a tiny village in
southern India, where Kamala Harris’ mother’s family has ancestral ties and
where people were rooting for the Democratic nominee for president.
Residents in this village, who were keenly following the election results on
their smartphones, were left silent as initial enthusiasm faded, even before the
presidential race call, but many said they were proud that she put up a good
fight. The villagers were hoping for a Harris victory and had Tuesday held
special Hindu prayers for her at a local temple where Harris’ name is engraved
in a list of donors. Some were also planning to blast off fireworks and
distribute sweets had she won.
“We are sad about it. But what can we do? It was in the hands of the voters of
that country. They made Trump win. We can only wish Trump well for his victory,”
said J. Sudhakar.
As results became clearer, a gaggle of reporters that was stationed outside the
village temple also quickly scattered away. The village — site of a brief media
spectacle and euphoria since Tuesday — became almost deserted.

The Dax rose significantly by 1.5% to 19,544 points in early Xetra trading,
German news agency dpa agency reported.
Robert Halver, Head of Capital Market Analysis at Baader Bank said that “since
Donald Trump stands for the economy, it can be assumed that stock markets around
the world will go up. With one exception: China, because he (Donald Trump) will
definitely impose tariffs at least on China. That will certainly make life
difficult for the Chinese.”
“The nice thing is that European stocks, German stocks and export stocks can
also benefit. Because we are still so well positioned in the industrial sector
that we are helping America to become big again in the industrial sector, so to
speak,” he added.

Ahead of the presidential race call, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said he
had no information on whether Russian President Vladimir Putin plans to
congratulate Donald Trump but emphasized that Moscow views the U.S. as an
“unfriendly” country.
Peskov reaffirmed the Kremlin’s claim that the U.S. support for Ukraine amounted
to its involvement in the conflict, telling reporters: “Let’s not forget that we
are talking about the unfriendly country that is both directly and indirectly
involved in a war against our state.”
Asked if Putin’s failure to congratulate Trump could hurt ties, Peskov responded
that the Russia-U.S. relations already are at the “lowest point in history,”
adding that it will be up to the new U.S. leadership to change the situation. He
noted Putin’s statements about Moscow’s readiness for a “constructive dialogue
based on justice, equality and readiness to take mutual concerns into account.”
Peskov noted Trump’s campaign statements about his intention to end wars, saying
that “those were important statements, but now after the victory, while getting
ready to enter the Oval Office or entering the Oval Office, statements could
sometimes change.”

Donald Trump was elected the 47th president of the United States on Wednesday,
an extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat
four years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was
convicted of felony charges and survived two assassination attempts.
With a win in Wisconsin, Trump cleared the 270 electoral votes needed to clinch
the presidency.
The victory validates his bare-knuckle approach to politics. He attacked his
Democratic rival, Kamala Harris, in deeply personal — often misogynistic and
racist — terms as he pushed an apocalyptic picture of a country overrun by
violent migrants.
The coarse rhetoric, paired with an image of hypermasculinity, resonated with
angry voters — particularly men — in a deeply polarized nation. As president,
he’s vowed to pursue an agenda centered on dramatically reshaping the federal
government and retribution against his perceived enemies.

Former President Donald Trump won the key state of Wisconsin on Wednesday,
defeating Vice President Kamala Harris in a critical battleground. The win
delivers 10 Electoral College votes to Trump. He narrowly won Wisconsin in 2016,
becoming the first Republican since Ronald Reagan to capture the state. He lost
it in 2020 to Democrat Joe Biden. Both Harris and Trump made Wisconsin a central
focus of their campaigns. In 2020, Trump attempted to overturn his loss in the
state through lawsuits and recounts, but failed. The Associated Press declared
Trump the winner at 5:34 a.m. EST.

Another big update from Wayne County and it’s the same story: Harris continues
to cut into Trump’s lead.
This update of close to 240,000 votes trimmed Trump’s advantage to just under 2
points. Smaller updates that followed in a few places pushed it back to more
than 2 points. The race for the state’s 15 electoral votes is still too early to
call.

“For a long time, Germany and the US have been working together successfully
promoting prosperity and freedom on both sides of the Atlantic. We will continue
to do so for the wellbeing of our citizens,” German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said
in a post on the social platform X.
Meanwhile, Czech Republic’s President Petr Pavel said he valued the country’s
“partnership with the United States” and was looking forward to “continued
cooperation in addressing shared global challenges, including supporting our
common allies and upholding European security,” Pavel said. “Our Transatlantic
bond remains strong.”

Election officials in Wayne County reported an additional 200,000 votes shortly
after 4 a.m. EST, but the update did not provide clarity on who will ultimately
win the state. The reason: Harris won the update by a margin of 46 percentage
points, allowing her to cut into Trump’s lead in Michigan. He’s still ahead with
more votes left to count. The race remains too early to call.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he appreciates Trump’s commitment
to “peace through strength” as the Republican presidential nominee closes in on
the electoral votes needed to win the White House.
“I recall our great meeting with President Trump back in September, when we
discussed in detail the Ukraine-U.S. strategic partnership, the Victory Plan,
and ways to put an end to Russian aggression against Ukraine,” said Zelenskyy on
X. Zelenskyy said that Ukraine is interested “in developing mutually beneficial
political and economic cooperation that will benefit both of our nations.”
“We look forward to an era of a strong United States of America under President
Trump’s decisive leadership,” said Zelenskyy.
“I appreciate President Trump’s commitment to the ‘peace through strength’
approach in global affairs. This is exactly the principle that can practically
bring just peace in Ukraine closer. I am hopeful that we will put it into action
together,” he said.

The European Union’s top official says she’s looking forward to working with
Trump again as the former president is on the cusp of victory in the U.S.
presidential race.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said that the E.U. and U.S.
“are more than just allies. We are bound by a true partnership between our
people, uniting 800 million citizens.”
“Let us work together on a transatlantic partnership that continues to deliver
for our citizens. Millions of jobs and billions in trade and investment on each
side of the Atlantic depend on the dynamism and stability of our economic
relationship,” she said in a statement.
The tariffs that Trump slapped on steel and aluminum exports during his last
term roiled the bloc’s economy.

Voters in Arizona approved a ballot measure that would establish a fundamental
right to abortion and prohibit the state from restricting or banning abortion
before 24 weeks. It’s a major win for abortion-rights supporters in the
presidential battleground state who sought to expand access beyond 15 weeks. The
Arizona amendment is the sixth measure to protect or expand abortion rights that
has passed so far this election. It comes after the Arizona Supreme Court
allowed the enforcement of an 1864 law banning nearly all abortions earlier this
year, but then the Legislature quickly repealed it.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte says he looks forward to working with Trump
“to advance peace through strength” as the former president closes in on the 270
electoral votes needed to win the White House.
“We face a growing number of challenges globally, from a more aggressive Russia,
to terrorism, to strategic competition with China, as well the increasing
alignment of China, Russia, North Korea and Iran,” Rutte said.
“Working together through NATO helps to deter aggression, protect our collective
security and support our economies,” he added.
Rutte also praised Trump for his work during his first term to persuade U.S.
allies in NATO to ramp up defense spending.
He noted that around two-thirds of the 32 NATO allies are due to meet the
organization’s main defense spending target this year.

Voters in Nebraska rejected a ballot measure to expand abortion rights in the
state. The measure would have enshrined in the Nebraska Constitution the right
to have an abortion until viability, or later to protect the health of the
pregnant woman. It was one of two competing abortion measures to appear on the
ballot. The other measure, which passed, instead enshrines the state’s current
12-week abortion ban into the state constitution and allows for the possibility
of stricter bans.

As the vote count for president continues in Nevada, a ballot measure to
enshrine the battleground state’s abortion rights in the state constitution
received its first nod of approval.
Voters must also approve the ballot question in 2026 in order to amend the state
constitution. The political action committee Nevadans for Reproductive Freedom
organized the ballot initiative and gathered enough signatures to put the
question before voters. Although a 1990 state law makes abortion available up to
24 weeks of pregnancy, supporters in Nevada and elsewhere have been pressing to
strengthen abortion access after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade
in 2022.

Benjamin Netanyahu on X. “Your historic return to the White House offers a new
beginning for America and a powerful recommitment to the great alliance between
Israel and America.”
French President Emmanuel Macron posted on X: “Ready to work together as we were

Trump, someone whose political career has been defined by division and acrimony,
told the audience at his election night party early on Wednesday that it was
“time to unite” as a country.
“It’s time to put the divisions of the past four years behind us,” Trump said.
“It’s time to unite.”
“We have to put our country first for at least a period of time,” he added. “We
have to fix it.”
Addressing his supporters from his Election night watch party in Florida, Donald
Trump claimed an “unprecedented and powerful mandate” in the 2024 contest and
called on the nation to “unite” and put divisions behind.

South Dakota became the second state to reject a ballot measure that would have
restored or protected abortion access since the overturning Roe v. Wade in 2022.
The loss in the deeply red state comes after anti-abortion groups heavily
out-fundraised and outspent abortion rights groups in the state and national
groups decided to stay out of the effort.

Former first lady Melania Trump stood near her husband and was joined by Barron,
the former president’s youngest son. Trump’s older children, Don Jr., Eric,
Ivanka and Tiffany, all joined their father on stage, too.
Trump’s top political minds, including top campaign advisers Susie Wiles and
Chris LaCivita, joined Trump on stage. And his political allies were on stage,
too, including House Speaker Mike Johnson.
Trump also celebrated a few celebrities in the audience and on stage. Dana
White, the CEO of UFC, was on stage with Trump, and the former president called
golfer Bryson DeChambeau on stage. Trump also shouted out Elon Musk, the
billionaire owner of X, who has become one of his most high-profile supporters.
“We have a new star. A star is born: Elon,” Trump said.

Vice President Kamala Harris carried Minnesota on Wednesday on a ticket with
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, extending a winning streak for Democrats that goes back
52 years. In choosing Walz, Harris elevated a Midwestern governor, veteran and
union supporter who helped enact an ambitious Democratic agenda for his state,
including sweeping protections for abortion rights and generous aid to families.
No Republican presidential candidate has carried Minnesota since Richard Nixon
in 1972, although Donald Trump came close in 2016 when he fell just 1.5
percentage points short of Hillary Clinton. The Associated Press declared Harris
the winner at 2:47 a.m. EST.

Kamala Harris in the critical battleground state. Both candidates campaigned
vigorously in the state, visiting it more often than any other. Trump won
Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral votes four years after Democrat Joe Biden carried
the state, flipping it from Trump’s column in 2016 on his way to capturing the
“blue wall.” No Democrat has won the White House without also winning
Pennsylvania since 1948. The Associated Press declared Trump the winner at 2:24

Trump has 248 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the White House. Trump is
leading in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. The AP is awaiting late vote
updates from Michigan’s Wayne County and Wisconsin’s Milwaukee County, two
Democratic strongholds that present Harris’ only path to win either state. In
Pennsylvania, her path is even more narrow.
The races are too early to call.

First-time voter Mariam Kolley didn’t expect her night to end without a visit
from Vice President Harris.
But she said there’s still a chance — a slim chance but a chance nonetheless.
“Anything’s possible and I also still believe in the goodness of America so I
can’t think and don’t want to believe that this is the end,” said Kolley, a
freshman at Howard University.
“I have faith. I just hope my faith isn’t in vain.”

The candidates: Democrat Kamala Harris, Republican Donald Trump and others
Poll closing time: 7 p.m. EST
Race called: 12:58 a.m. EST Wednesday
* After losing Georgia four years ago by under 12,000 votes, Trump notched
minute-but-difference-making improvements in his vote totals from dozens of
small but deeply red counties.
* Though the race is likely to narrow as more ballots are counted, there were
not enough votes to be tabulated in Democratic-leaning areas for Harris to
overtake Trump’s lead.

of Maine’s 2nd District at 1:51 a.m. EST.
