US Election Results: How Harris can defeat Trump with exactly 270 electoral votes
Harris’ chances of winning the polls with 270 electoral college votes depends on her winning all the swing states Biden won in the 2020 elections.
Republican candidate Donald Trump is inching closer towards victory every minute, securing 230 electoral votes so far, slimming the chances of Kamala Harris’ victory and the return of a Democratic government.
While experts have decoded the aftermath of the race to the White House if Trump and Harris end up in a tie, what remains of interest is that Harris could still defeat the former US president with exactly 270 electoral college votes if she manages to bag the swing states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
Harris and Trump are locked in a head-on fight as both the leaders take striking leads in the votes’ figures.

However, the chances of the vice president winning these three swing states is also becoming narrower by the second. Trump is leading in all three states, with 51.4% votes in Pennsylvania, 51.5% votes in Michigan, and 51.0% votes in Wisconsin so far.
Trump has also won his first swing state of North Carolina with 50.9% vote, making the presidential race to be a bigger challenge for his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris.

Notably, the outcome of Harris still having the chance of emerging victorious remains contingent on her winning all of the swing states that Joe Biden won in the 2020 Presidential elections.
The 2020 elections
In the previous race to the Oval Office, Biden had secured six of the seven swing states of Arizona (49.4% votes), Georgia (49.5% votes), Michigan (50.6% votes), Nevada (50.1%), Pennsylvania (50.0%), and Wisconsin (49.4% votes), while Trump won just one – North Carolina, with 49.9% votes.
Biden won the race to the White House, securing an overall of 51.3% votes nationally. He got the lead to become the 46th President of the United States after Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes placed Biden above the must-needed 270.
Swing states and their electoral votes
An electoral college is a process which includes the selection of electors by voters. These electors then meet and cast votes to pick the next President and vice President of the United States of America.
A candidate needs 270 of the 538 electoral college votes to be declared as the winner. Each of the states get assigned a certain number of electors based on the number of seats they represent in the House of Representatives and Senate.
Among the seven swing states, which are the key battlegrounds for the presidential elections, Arizona has 11 electoral votes, Georgia has 16, Michigan 15, Nevada 6, North Carolina 16, Pennsylvania 19, and Wisconsin 10.

Jennifer Lopez felt she was ‘not good enough’ due to Latina stereotypes in Hollywood: ‘Imposter syndrome is real’
Jennifer Lopez opened up about her early days in the film industry and the importance of her ‘belief to belong’ which helped her to break certain moulds.
Jennifer Lopez has opened up about her initial years in Hollywood and how she used her self-belief to fight any doubts that crept in about her ability. The actor-singer, who has now spent over two decades in the industry, opened up about her challenges as a Latina actress in the film industry.
Jennifer Lopez on battling stereotypes
Appearing on Variety’s Awards Circuit podcast, JLo opened up about her early days in the film industry and how the change in Hollywood – regarding stereotypes and diversity – can be slow but still positive.
“I heard someone say that positive change is slow — and it is — but as long as we’re moving in the right direction, that’s what matters,” she said, adding, “When I started, there weren’t a lot of roles for Latinas. I was auditioning for parts with accents and stereotypes. I kept thinking, ‘Why can’t I just play a romantic lead? Why can’t I be the girl next door?’ That belief–that conviction that I belonged — was what helped me break those moulds.”
The actor, who started with roles in blockbusters like Anaconda before making a name for herself in romantic comedies, added that her journey wasn’t full of roses. Due to her upbringing in the Bronx as the daughter of Puerto Rican parents, Lopez admitted that she went through imposter syndrome in the initial years of her career.
“Imposter syndrome is real, especially when you come from neighbourhoods like I did,” she added. “But I’ve learned that it’s about what you tell yourself. You have to redirect that inner voice. Whenever the doubts creep in — ‘I don’t belong here, I’m not good enough’ — you need to replace them with, ‘No, I’ve worked hard. I do belong here.’ It’s a mindset that transforms everything.”
Jennifer Lopez’s upcoming film
The actor will be next seen in a biographical sports drama film titled Unstoppable. She will be playing the role of Judy Robles, the mother of NCAA wrestling champion Anthony Robles.
The film is based on the real-life story of Anthony Roble, a one-legged wrestler who defied all odds to become a champion. Directed by debutant Villy Goldenberg, the film stars Jharrel Jerome in the lead role. The film is produced by Jennifer’s estranged husband, Ben Affleck. The two began work on the project before they filed for divorce in August this year.
