WASHINGTON (AP) -- Donald Trump was on the verge of clinching the presidency Wednesday after winning Pennsylvania, putting him just three electoral votes shy of defeating Kamala Harris to secure his return to the White House.

Trump has 267 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the Oval Office. A win in Alaska or any of the outstanding battleground states -- Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona or Nevada -- would send the Republican former president back to the Oval Office.
