US Election 2024: Trump takes must-win North Carolina, Republicans win Senate control

update 2024.11.06 14:54

Republican nominee Donald Trump is leading the US presidential race, most likely to become the 47th president, leading Democratic nominee Kamala Harris in most of the battlegrounds after taking the must-win swing state of North CarolinaThe resurgence of Trump trades has supported the renewed upside in the US Dollar (USD) and global stocks.

The current electoral vote tally is 227 for Trump and 189 for Harris, with the former US President taking hold of the swing states - Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. 

Meanwhile, Fox News called Republicans in control of the US Senate yet again. Republicans won a key Senate seat in Ohio, with Trump-endorsed nominee Bernie Moreno projected to defeat Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown, according to CNN News, flipping yet another seat for the (Grand Old Party) GOP.

The main focus is on the control of the House. If Democrats take the House majority, it could be a 'divided government, causing policy gridlock for the likely Trump administration. Democrats need to flip just four seats to win control of the lower chamber

However, it appears that Republicans are still defending the control of the House by a narrow majority.
