Just days after former President Donald Trump was projected to have won the presidency, Trump's transition team operation has begun, with transition co-chairs confirming that he will be selecting personnel to serve under his leadership in the coming days.

Trump is also the projected winner in Arizona, a state the former president flipped after losing it to Joe Biden in 2020.

Trump's projected win in the vital swing state marks a sweep of the battleground states.

With Arizona, Trump sweeps all 7 swing states

President-elect Donald Trump is the projected winner of all seven closely watched battleground states in the 2024 election, ABC News reports.

The final tally of swing state victories comes after Trump was projected to win Arizona -- the final state, overall, to have a projected winner after Tuesday's presidential election.

On the campaign trail, Trump and his Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris, both made repeated visits to the seven battleground states.

Trump's sweep of the swing states netted him 93 total electoral votes.

His margin of victories in the swing states ranged from more than 189,000 votes in North Carolina to a much narrower 30,000 votes in Wisconsin, according to unofficial vote tallies.

With the projection for Arizona, the final electoral count for the 2024 election is 312 electoral votes for Trump and 226 for Harris.

That bests Trump's previous 304-227 showing in 2016 against Hillary Clinton and also tops President Joe Biden's 306-232 win over Trump in the 2020 election.

Steve Witkoff and Kelly Loeffler to lead Trump's inaugural efforts

President-elect Donald Trump announced on Saturday that his close friend Steve Witkoff and former Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler will co-chair the Trump Vance Inaugural Committee, as ABC News reported yesterday.

"This will be the kick-off to my administration, which will deliver on bold promises to Make America Great Again. Together, we will celebrate this moment, steeped on history and tradition, and then get to work to achieve the most incredible future for our people, restoring strength, success, and common sense to the Oval Office," Trump said in a statement.

Witkoff and Loeffler have been among the biggest fundraisers for Trump this election cycle, hosting multiple key campaign fundraisers as well as accompanying him to campaign rallies.

2 more governor races to watch in 2024

There's a lot more on the ballot today than just the presidential race. A little bit ago, I posted about two governors' races that could flip from red to blue this year. Well, there are also two governors' races that Republicans entered 2024 hopeful that they could flip — but neither has quite gone according to plan.

Initially, North Carolina looked like it was going to be the most competitive gubernatorial race of the cycle. Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper was term-limited, and North Carolina is obviously a major swing state. However, Republicans nominated Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, who had alienated voters with a litany of sexist, antisemitic and homophobic comments. He was already trailing badly in the polls when news broke in September about racist and salacious messages he allegedly posted on a pornography website's message board. These days, Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein leads Robinson by 10-20 points in most polls.

Finally, in Washington, Republicans have a strong candidate in moderate former Rep. Dave Reichert. However, Democratic Attorney General Bob Ferguson still has the inside track to succeed retiring Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee. In an average of six polls conducted since Oct. 1, Ferguson led Reichert 53% to 39%.
