Nov 6, 2024, 11:15 PM

Donald Trump has been declared the winner of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, securing a second term in the White House. Texas officials and politicians reacted to Trump's victory, noting the significant support he received in the state, including winning all South Texas border counties on Tuesday night. This shift indicates a growing Republican presence in what was traditionally a Democratic stronghold. Additionally, Latinos in Texas and across the country voted for Trump in striking numbers, weakening the Democratic voting base. Trump's triumph not only ensures his return to the presidency but also likely shields him from ongoing legal issues. The left is now reeling, trying to understand how the election took such an unexpected turn.
