Breaking News: US Presidential Race Tightens as Early Results Show Trump Leading Over Harris
In the ongoing 2024 US Presidential elections, the race between the Democratic and Republican candidates remains extremely close. According to the latest data from the Associated Press (AP), former President Donald Trump has garnered 230 electoral votes, leading over Vice President Kamala Harris, who has secured 205 electoral votes.
Trump currently holds 51% of the popular vote, with over 60 million votes cast in his favor, while Harris trails with 47.6%, accumulating over 56 million votes. As of now, neither candidate has reached the crucial 270 electoral votes needed to claim victory.
