Following a resounding victory that will return him to the White House, Republican Donald Trump will be the next president of the United States.
Democrat Kamala Harris, his vanquished opponent, urged her supporters to accept Trump’s victory and warned that the transfer of power must be peaceful.
At the age of 78, he will be the oldest man to be elected president and the first former president to rejoin the presidency in over 130 years.
When are the election results going to be verified?
International officials have already congratulated Trump, including British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, although the official results of the presidential election have not yet been announced.
