After months of debates, campaigning and speculation, Donald J. Trump won Ohio and claims victory nationally in the 2016 presidential election — Clinton conceded the race through a phone call with Trump.
Over the course of the night, Trump was able to clinch many swing states, including Florida, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
Trump’s presidential inauguration is scheduled to take place on January 20, 2017. Trump will be the first person to become president of the United States with no prior political or military experience.
