Donald Trump has won the United States (US) election and will make a historic return to the White House.
His opponent, Kamala Harris of the Democratic Party, is yet to concede.
She is also yet to address dejected crowds who left her watch party well before the final result came in on Wednesday.
Trump told jubilant crowds in Florida: “America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate.”
Of the seven crucial swing states, Trump won North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, and is ahead in Michigan, Nevada, and Arizona.
Republicans have also taken the Senate back from Democrats after flipping a string of seats. -BBC
