    US election 2024 live results: Donald Trump defeats Kamala Harris, count continues in Arizona and Nevada

    Follow the results from the US presidential election as the count happens. Analyse the ABC News state map that shows what it takes to win the White House.


    Donald Trump has won the 2024 United States election, defeating Kamala Harris.

    [USA Votes: live election results]

    He clinched the presidency with victories in battleground states North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan.

    With two states still to call, the former president has secured 295 electoral college votes to defeat his Democratic rival Kamala Harris.

    Joe Biden said there would be a peaceful handover to Donald Trump ahead of inauguration day on January 20. 

    Check the ABC News state map here to see how the states have voted.

    When will Trump be sworn in?

    On January 20, 2025 — otherwise known as Inauguration Day.

    Did Trump win the popular vote?

    The popular vote is the total number across the entire country of how many people voted for each candidate.

    As votes are still being counted, we don't officially know if Trump has won.

    But at the time of writing, he leads Harris by almost 5 million votes.

    Can Trump run for president again in 2028?

    No.

    Under the 22nd Amendment to the US Constitution, which was ratified in 1951, Trump is barred from seeking the presidency for a third time.
