Can Trump sweep key swing states? Follow live results as AZ, NV remain uncalled

Though the race for the White House has already been called and Vice President Kamala Harris conceded to former President Donald Trump, votes are still being counted in Arizona and Nevada.

Arizona (Electoral votes: 11)

Arizona, once considered reliably red, is now a key battleground state in the race to the White House.

Biden won the state by 0.3% in 2020, and his 49.4% support was the highest level for a Democratic candidate since 1964.

More than 60% of ballots cast in the 2020 presidential election in Arizona came from Maricopa County, the home of Phoenix and much of the state’s population. Biden won 50.3% of the vote in Maricopa in 2020, beating Trump by about 45,000 votes, and that was enough to win the state by just over 10,000 votes.

Nevada (Electoral votes: 6)

Nevada only has six electoral college votes, making it the smallest prize of the seven presidential battleground states. Biden narrowly won Nevada in 2020 – he got 33,596 more votes than Trump.

Nevada has one of the nation’s best track records as a presidential bellwether. The candidate who won the state has gone on to win the White House in 27 of the last 30 presidential elections. It voted for the losing candidate only in 1908, 1976 and 2016, when Democrat Hillary Clinton carried the state. Democrats have won Nevada in the last four presidential elections.

More than two-thirds of Nevada votes came from Clark, home to Las Vegas. In Nevada, Biden lost 14 of the state’s 15 counties, but his 91,000-vote margin over Trump in Clark was enough to secure his statewide victory of 34,000 votes.

Trump's historic win for US President

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. He won Michigan on Wednesday afternoon, sweeping the "blue wall" along with Pennsylvania — the one-time Democrat-leaning, swing states that all went for Trump in 2016 before flipping to President Joe Biden in 2020.

Trump speaks to supporters in West Palm Beach

Donald Trump speaks to supporters gathered in West Palm Beach, Florida. Trump has claimed victory in the 2024 presidential election, though several swing states remain undecided. Key states like Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona continue counting high volumes of mail-in ballots. Early results favor Trump, but Democrats hope remaining counts in urban areas could tip the scales.

"I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president," Trump told throngs of cheering supporters in Florida even before his victory was confirmed.
