Donald Trump wins the elections in the United States after a close campaign and will be president again

The Republican candidate, Donald Trump, was proclaimed this Wednesday the winner of the elections in the United States and will return to the White House, after a close electoral campaign, to become the 47th president of the country.

Trump exceeded the 270 electoral votes necessary to proclaim himself victorious against his rival, the Democratic candidate and vice president of the Government, Kamala Harris.

According to the US suffrage system, the president is proclaimed by the Electoral College, a body made up of 538 delegates who elect the states according to their population.

The winning candidate in each state, even by a single vote, takes all his compromises with the exception of Nebraska and Maine and the one who reaches 270 wins the elections.

Before the total results were known, the former president had already attributed the victory against Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris during a rally before his followers in Palm Beach (Florida), after checking his good partial results and winning the popular vote.

It will be the first time in more than a century that a former president becomes one again (he already ruled between 2017 and 2021) after losing elections (those of 2020) and also the first time that a convicted criminal reaches the Presidency of the country.

First conciliatory speech

Accompanied by his family and campaign managers, the former president assured from Palm Beach that he will govern for everyone and that “together” they will make a better United States.

“Success will unite us, and we will start by putting the United States first. I won’t let them down,” he said during a speech of less than half an hour at the Palm Beach Convention Center (on the east coast of Florida).

The former Republican president thanked each of his family members and Americans in a statement that had a mostly conciliatory tone and in which he invited to “put behind the divisions of recent years.”

Trump celebrated his good results in key states such as North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, and boasted himself for having regained the majority in the Senate for the Republicans, while control of the House of Representatives remains in the air.

Before finishing the recount and after some important data on the voting trend throughout the country became known, Harris decided to cancel the speech he was scheduled to offer at the end of the election day and postponed it until this Wednesday, according to his campaign.

The Republican has also won the popular vote (more than 71 million votes compared to Harris’ 66, according to preliminary ballot data), something that the Republicans had not achieved in 20 years, since the 2004 elections in which the Republican George W. Bush achieved 59 million votes against the democrat John Kerry’s 55.4.

In the 2016 elections, Trump arrived at the White House after having won the electoral vote (306 votes), but in popular vote he was almost three million below (63 against 65.8 million) of his then rival, the Democrat Hillary Clinton.

The billionaire’s victory has been met with increases in the stock markets around the world, while most political leaders have congratulated Trump and wished that his mandate prioritize international cooperation.

Seven bodies found with signs of torture in Sinaloa

Mexican authorities discovered seven lifeless bodies on Wednesday, showing clear signs of torture, in the rural area of Culiacán, Sinaloa, just one day after the same number of bodies was found in several municipalities in the western state of Mexico.

Six of these seven victims were found along the side of the highway that connects Culiacán to Mazatlán, near Laguna de Canachi, according to local media reports, which also noted that messages addressed to a criminal group were found near the bodies.

This brings the total number of violent deaths in the region to seven within just 24 hours. On Tuesday, authorities reported more victims found in the municipalities of Culiacán, Elota, and Mazatlán.

Among the victims identified was a local cattle rancher named Ramón Velázquez Ontiveros, as well as a police officer from Mazatlán, who was killed by a motorcyclist outside his home in San Marcos.

Málaga paralyzed by new storm as torrential rains hit Spain

Thousands of people were evacuated and trains were suspended as torrential rains once again struck Spain on Wednesday, following the devastating floods that killed at least 223 people two weeks ago, most of them in the Valencia region.

The national meteorological agency (Aemet) issued a maximum, red-level alert for the Andalusian province of Málaga in the south, and for Tarragona in the northeast, due to the new DANA (isolated depression at high levels), also known as a cold drop.

The city of Málaga appeared to be the hardest hit by the rains, with more than 3,000 people evacuated from 1,000 homes near rivers, flooded streets, and the suspension of urban transport and train services to Madrid.

“Today Málaga is paralyzed,” said Andalusia’s regional president, Juan Manuel Moreno, to reporters. “I know it is a problem for citizens not being able to take their children to school or go to work, but after what we saw in Valencia, we need to ‘prevent’ and minimize the impact in terms of loss of life,” he added.

The storm also led to the postponement of a match between Spain and Poland in the Billie Jean King Cup women’s tennis competition, which was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon in Málaga.

Hezbollah launches explosive drone strike on Israel’s defense headquarters

The Lebanese Islamist movement Hezbollah claimed on Wednesday that it launched an attack with explosive drones against the Israeli army’s headquarters in Tel Aviv.

The Iran-backed organization reported in a statement that it had carried out “an aerial attack with a squadron of explosive drones” targeting the site that houses Israel’s main defense institutions.

Hezbollah later stated that it also fired a barrage of rockets at the Glilot military intelligence base in the suburbs of Tel Aviv.

The Israeli military indicated that “sirens sounded in several areas of northern and central Israel following the launch of projectiles from Lebanon.”

It later clarified that “five projectiles were identified over the territory, and some were intercepted.”
