Trump won North Carolina and is very likely to take Georgia as well. To win, Harris needs to win 3 crucial states
Donald Trump’s probability of victory, now at a percentage of 91%, with 301 electors, compared to 237 of Kamala Harris, is given by the New York Times newspaper in its electoral “needle”. At least 270 electoral votes are needed to elect a president in the US elections.
Donald Trump won North Carolina and is very likely to take Georgia as well. To win, Harris needs to win Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, but Trump has the advantage in all three states, the paper said.
The picture in the seven ambiguous states so far
The following is the picture of the seven contested states (swing states), which are considered to decide the election result, at approximately 06:05 Greek time.
In Georgia, with 70.5% of the vote counted, Trump leads with 51.1% to Harris’ 47.9%.
In Pennsylvania, with 67.4% of the vote counted, Trump leads with 51% to Harris’ 48%.
In North Carolina, with 86.3% of the vote counted, Trump leads with 50.9% to Harris’ 48%.
In Wisconsin, with 59.8% of the vote counted, Trump leads with 50.3% to Kamala’s 48.2%.
In Arizona, with 49.8% of the vote counted, Trump narrowly leads Harris with 49.7% to 49.5%.
In Michigan, with 26.5% of the vote counted, Donald Trump now leads with 51.1% to Trump’s 47.3%.
Counting in both Nevada and Nebraska is still too early to make any predictions.
