CARTE – With its sixteen electors, this key state on the Atlantic coast allows the Republican candidate to get a little closer to the White House.
According to the Associated Press, Donald Trump won North Carolina, winning sixteen more electors. He currently has 230. His rival Kamala Harris has 187 votes in the electoral college. The suspense therefore remains intact in this race for the White House.
Kamala Harris or Donald Trump: who is leading the presidential election in the United States?
Imitating many southern states, North Carolina initially leaned almost exclusively to the Democrats, before preferring, from 1968, the Grand Old Party (GOP), particularly because of civil rights laws. Since then, only Jimmy Carter in 1976 and the Obama wave of 2008 have managed to reverse the trend. In 2020, although given the favorite by the polls, Joe Biden lost by more than one point to Donald Trump, who won the state for the second consecutive presidential election.
