He's Back!

Good morning. Donald Trump is the president-elect. The race was officially called around 5:30 a.m. when Wisconsin's results finally came in. Trump had already won North Carolina, Georgia, and Pennsylvania several hours prior, and expected to win Alaska's three electoral votes (though they're still not technically in yet, since polls in Adak, on the tundra, close at 1 a.m. Eastern Time), so in characteristic fashion, he went ahead and gave a victory speech a bit prematurely a little after midnight.

Overnight, though, everything solidified with the delivery of the Wisconsin count. We're waiting on the swing states Arizona, Nevada, and Michigan to get a full accounting of how Trump performed, but by 1 a.m. last night Kamala Harris was done waiting, and slinked off to bed. She's expected to concede, and give a speech at Howard University, sometime today.
