AP says Donald Trump has won Pennsylvania, all but sealing his victory

Former US president Donald Trump has won Pennsylvania, defeating Democrat Kamala Harris in the critical battleground state, The Associated Press says.

Both candidates campaigned vigorously in the state, visiting it more often than any other.

Trump wins Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral votes four years after Democrat Joe Biden carried the state, flipping it from Trump’s column in 2016 on his way to capturing the “blue wall.”

No Democrat has won the White House without also winning Pennsylvania since 1948.

Trump’s victory in Pennsylvania puts him three electoral votes short of winning the presidency.

He could win the White House by capturing Alaska or any remaining swing state.
