WEST PALM BEACH—It was one of the closest elections in American history, until it wasn't. Donald Trump handily defeated Kamala Harris on Tuesday, becoming the first president since Grover Cleveland in 1892 to win a second, non-consecutive term. Trump supporters at the campaign's Election Night watch party at the Palm Beach Convention Center were cautiously optimistic and prepared for a long night. The mood turned increasingly joyful as the results rolled in and the New York Times forecast needle ticked steadily rightward. As of early Wednesday, Trump was projected to win the Electoral College by a considerable margin. He was also projected to narrowly win the popular vote, a result that practically no one predicted. If that projection holds, Trump would be the first Republican candidate to win the popular vote since George W. Bush in 2004. Harris was also trying to make history, but she appeared poised to fail even more dramatically than Hillary Clinton failed in 2016. If elected (which she wasn't) Harris would have been the shortest president since James Madison in 1808, as well as the first president with a male spouse.
