Former President Donald Trump has successfully clinched several key states in the South and Midwest in the ongoing United States (US) presidential election.
The key win has positioned him as a formidable contender in the ongoing race against Vice President and Democratic candidate, Kamala Harris.
According to Fox News, Trump’s strong performance in rural areas, regions that played a crucial role in his victories in both 2016 and 2020 has once again proven pivotal.
Based on the latest updates, Trump has secured wins in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee.
Other states include Kentucky, Indiana, West Virginia, South Carolina, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming, Kansas, and Iowa.

Meanwhile, Harris has shown strength in the Northeast and Democratic-leaning states.
She has gained projected wins in Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Illinois, and New York.
These states, known Democratic strongholds, continue to bolster her support base.
Despite these early results, several battleground states remain too close to call, with both candidates sweeping up significant victories but waiting on key undecided states to ultimately shape the outcome.
The tense race highlights a continued divide between rural and urban voting patterns and the strong influence of historical party loyalties in these regions.
As Election Night progresses, all eyes remain on these battlegrounds to determine whether Trump’s wins in rural strongholds or Harris’s urban and coastal successes will be decisive in clinching the White House.
