Former U.S. President Donald Trump has declared himself the winner of the 2024 U.S. Presidential election, claiming the title of 47th President in a victory speech at a West Palm Beach convention center, despite the results not being official.

Images from West Palm Beach and in other locations show Trump supporters celebrating after Fox News projected him as the election winner.

Trump has reportedly secured Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral votes and, according to Fox News, is also projected to win Wisconsin, flipping another key swing state. If confirmed, these results would give Trump the 270 votes needed to secure the presidency.

However, other media outlets have yet to declare Trump the winner. At the time of his speech, the Wall Street Journal recorded Trump at 267 electoral votes and Vice President Kamala Harris at 214. Meanwhile Harris has not conceded defeat.

In his characteristically spontaneous speech, Trump thanked his supporters, singling out Elon Musk and Robert F. Kennedy.

He praised Kennedy’s focus on health, stating Kennedy would “Make America Healthy Again,” but joked that he should “keep his hands off America’s black gold” in a nod to Trump’s pro-oil stance.

Trump also mentioned surviving two assassination attempts, claiming it as a sign he is part of God’s plan for America. He assured supporters that “America will be bigger, safer, and stronger than ever before” and promised that “success will bring us together again.”
