Just look at the numbers. Trump’s support increased in nearly every demographic group this year. Most notably, he carried 45% of the Latino vote, a 13-point gain from 32% in 2020. Although Harris won 53% of the Latino vote, that’s 7 points lower than Biden’s 60% share four years ago.

Every state in America has a number of electoral votes allocated to it which relates to its population. For each state the candidate with the majority of votes wins all of the electoral votes allocated to that state. For example whoever wins the most votes in California will win all 54 electoral votes.
