What you need to know

• Trump wins: Former President Donald Trump will defeat Vice President Kamala Harris and return to the White House, CNN projects, in a moment of historic consequence for American democracy. His projected win in battleground Wisconsin put the Republican over the top with 276 electoral votes as counting continues in some key states.

• Historic comeback: Trump will return to the nation’s highest office four years after losing the 2020 election, attempting to overturn the results, facing two presidential impeachments, a criminal conviction and many other criminal charges. He’s also projected to become only the second president to win two nonconsecutive terms.

• Trump addresses supporters: In a speech before the race was called, Trump said he would usher in a “golden age of America.” He made the economy and immigration a focus of his campaign, many times pushing false claims. He also celebrated Republicans’ projected control of the Senate. Harris is expected to speak later today.
