Donald Trump’s momentum in the 2024 U.S. presidential race continues to build as the Republican candidate secures a crucial victory in Wisconsin.
NEW DELHI: Donald Trump’s momentum in the 2024 U.S. presidential race continues to build as the Republican candidate secures a crucial victory in Wisconsin. With this win, Trump inches closer to the 270 electoral votes needed to reclaim the White House, maintaining a significant lead over his Democratic rival, Kamala Harris, who is trailing with 214 electoral votes.
Wisconsin, with its 10 electoral votes, has long been considered a battleground state in U.S. elections, and Trump’s win there is a major boost to his chances. This victory adds to a growing list of key swing states where Trump has either maintained leads or secured wins, including Pennsylvania, Georgia, and North Carolina. His success in these pivotal states underscores a shift in political dynamics, as Democrats had carried Wisconsin in previous elections, making this win even more significant for Trump’s campaign.

Trump’s current position is strengthened by his leads in other vital swing states, including Arizona, Michigan, and Nevada. With a projected victory in Wisconsin, Trump is now on track to surpass the 270 electoral votes threshold if he secures the remaining states where he holds favourable margins, such as Arizona (11 electoral votes), Michigan (15), and Nevada (6). Should Trump successfully clinch these states, he would surpass the necessary 270 votes to become the next U.S. President.
The Associated Press projections have fueled further optimism within Trump’s camp, as he continues to dominate in crucial battleground states. If his momentum holds, he will have completed a remarkable comeback, securing not only Wisconsin but also other key states that were once viewed as leaning Democratic. As the final results roll in, Trump’s path to victory seems increasingly secure, and the focus now turns to how he will consolidate his wins and address the remaining challenges on the road to the White House.
