Donald J. Trump is to be elected as the 45th President of the United States of America. Trump’s 289 electoral votes was enough to secure him the president-elect.

Donald Trump will be inaugurated on January 20th, 2017. This win for Trump is very surprising, as almost every major scientific poll in prior weeks shows his opponent, Hillary Clinton, with at least a three point lead.

This is how America and the world is reacting:
