Trump claims victory; Republican wave sweeps senate

According to the latest forecast by "The New York Times," Donald Trump already has 312 electoral votes secured, while Kamala Harris has 226. A total of 270 votes are needed to win. The Republican candidate has already declared victory.

"We were at Howard University, at Kamala Harris's headquarters. When we were leaving that place—it was very symbolic—hundreds, if not thousands, of people were leaving with us," reported Kraśko after 12:00 AM Eastern Time.

He added that supporters of the Democrats "probably did not expect either Kamala Harris or a big celebration at the headquarters in the next few hours".

"The place changed unbelievably. When we started our coverage from there around 7:00 PM local time, there was euphoria. Beyoncé's music was playing nonstop from the speakers, then a gospel choir sang, and then they started reporting what was happening on CNN and it got quieter and quieter.... There was no dancing and no music," described the TVN24 journalist.

Sentiments worsened with each hour of watching CNN, where ongoing state-by-state result forecasts were provided. "If I were to somehow describe the image of what Howard University looks like now, that is, Kamala Harris's headquarters, tonight, at this moment, I would say - it is the image of defeat," summarized Kraśko.

He added that for Harris to have any chance of winning, she would need to win in the states of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. "And so far, Donald Trump is leading in all three of these states," he emphasized.

The probable victory in the presidential elections is not all. As reported by the Associated Press, the Republicans will take control of the U.S. Senate.

It is still unknown what the Republicans' advantage in the Senate will be or whether they will maintain a majority in the House of Representatives.
