US Election Result 2024: At last the day has come when the fate of the next President of America will be decided. Kamala Harris from the Democratic Party and Donald Trump from the Republican Party are in the electoral fray. Voting will start there at 05:30 pm Indian time. Any candidate will have to get 270 votes out of total 538 electoral votes to win. The last day of election campaign attracted everyone’s attention. Both the candidates had given life to the same state. Both candidates held marathon rallies in Pennsylvania.
After all, what is the reason that both the candidates targeted Pennsylvania the most. So let us understand. There are 7 such states in America, where there are 93 electoral votes alone. These are called swing states. This makes the President’s path to victory even easier. These swing states are Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Among these, Pennsylvania has the maximum of 19 electoral votes.
Let us tell you that among the 7 swing states, three states are even more important. These three states Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin are very important for the presidency. These three states are also known as ‘Blue Wall’. The total electoral votes in these three states are 44. It is believed that these three states can play an important role in the victory of Kamala Harris. It is believed that whoever wins in these three states becomes the master of America’s destiny.
- Pennsylvania (19 electoral votes): If we look at the survey this time, it is believed that Pennsylvania is considered auspicious for Kamala Harris. This time the voters here are inclined towards the Democrats. In 2016, Trump won with a narrow victory of 0.7%. In 2020, Biden won Pennsylvania. This time also it remains to be seen who wins.
- Michigan (15 electoral votes): For the first time since 1988, a Republican won here in 2016. As part of the “Blue Wall”, this state has always voted for the winning candidate. From here, Trump won in 2016 and Biden won in 2020. Now if Harris continues to win here in 2024, it is certain that she will become the President.
- Wisconsin (10 electoral votes): The state has voted for the winning candidate in the last two elections, but by very small margins. Winning Wisconsin will be important for Harris, as flipping or retaining it could make or break the overall balance in a tight election.
