Donald Trump is on the brink of a return to the White House.

The former president needs just 3 electoral votes to secure a projected victory.

Trump was successful in winning the electoral vote in Republican strongholds like Florida, but also took battleground states of Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina.

He is currently leading in other battlegrounds, including Michigan and Wisconsin.

Kamala Harris secured victories in key Democratic states, but the Republicans began to widen the lead as more polls began to close across the United States.

The Republican party has also claimed control of the Senate, flipping some Democratic seats.

Trump declared victory during a speech to supporters in West Palm Beach just after 2:30 eastern time.

“We overcame obstacles that nobody thought possible,” said Trump. “It is now clear that we achieved the most incredible political—look what happened! Is this crazy?”
