Former President Donald Trump has emerged victorious in the state of Wisconsin in the 2024 election against Vice President Kamala Harris, as projected by the Fox News Decision Desk. The once “blue wall” state was considered a toss-up by political handicappers, but Trump officially beat Harris, securing Wisconsin’s 10 electoral votes in his bid for the White House.
Wisconsin has been a crucial battleground state in recent elections, with Democrats relying on it for executive office wins. President Biden’s 2020 victory in the state was a key factor in his overall triumph over Trump. Both Trump and Harris made Wisconsin a central focus of their campaigns, emphasizing support for workers in the state.
The race in Wisconsin was characterized by a significant gender gap in polls, with men largely supporting Trump and women backing Harris. Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre even made an appearance at a Trump rally in Wisconsin leading up to the election.
The outcome of the election in Wisconsin has implications for the overall race, with both candidates fighting hard to win over swing state voters. Fox News Power Rankings had labeled Wisconsin as a “Toss Up” state prior to the election.
