In a significant development in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election, former President Donald Trump has dealt a major blow to Vice President Kamala Harris by capturing Georgia, marking his second major battleground state victory after North Carolina. Trump’s win in Georgia reinforces his momentum, putting him closer to the pivotal 270 electoral votes necessary to reclaim the White House. With the race tightening, Trump’s stronghold across Republican-leaning states like Florida and Texas has given him a substantial lead, while key swing states including Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania remain in contention. Harris has claimed traditionally Democratic states such as California and New York, but Trump’s surge in battleground states has created a challenging scenario for her campaign.
