Episode Synopsis

Vice President Kamala Harris conceded the election to Donald Trump on Wednesday, delivering a message of hope to supporters at Howard University. Trump, who secured 270 electoral votes, was congratulated by Biden and Harris, with Biden inviting him to the White House for the transition. Trump’s win was bolstered by a significant rightward shift among Latino voters, who gave him 45% support, up 13 points from 2020. Trump also won Michigan, thanks to strong rural turnout. In local news, Delta Township Supervisor Ken Fletcher, reelected with 85.5% of the vote, faced controversy after resigning in September over felony charges related to inappropriate conversations with a decoy posing as a minor.
