Trump win ‘likely’ – NYT

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has an 89% chance of victory in the election, making his return to the White House likely, the New York Times projects.

The newspaper estimates that Trump is on track to secure 301 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the race for the White House, while Democrat Kamala Harris is likely to win 238. The Republican currently leads with 214 electoral votes to Harris’ 179, according to the outlet

Trump is very likely to take the swing state of Georgia and has won North Carolina, the NYT has reported, while Harris will have to secure Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, which will be difficult given the Republican’s advantage in all three.

According to the paper’s projection, Arizona, another battleground state, is also leaning Trump. No votes have so far been reported in Nevada, where polls closed at 10pm Eastern Time.
