According to the preliminary results of the ongoing counting of ballots, the Republican candidate for the US president, Donald Trump, is ahead of Kamala Harris by 5 million votes. Associated Press published such information.
Trump now has more than 58 million votes, while Democratic candidate Kamala Harris received 53 million votes. Despite such an advantage in the total number of votes, the victory in the election of the president is determined not by the number of votes, but also by the electoral system.
According to Fox News, Trump already has 232 electoral votes, and Harris has 198 votes. According to the New York Times, the probability of Trump's victory is 89 percent.
