Iowa was called for President Donald Trump shortly after midnight giving him six electoral votes and taking him to 210 electoral votes in a tight race against former Vice President Joe Biden, according to Fox News.

It wasn’t the only win for Iowa. Republican incumbent Sen.Joni Ernst also held onto her seat against Democratic challenger Theresa Greenfield. The race was one of the most expensive in the nation, according to the Associated Press.

Ernst got a big shout out from Ivanka Trump on Twitter too.

Shortly before midnight Trump took the buckeye state of Ohio giving him an important win against former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign that had vested time and effort in the state. Ohio has a significant 18 electoral count and the president led with 53% of the vote versus Biden’s 45% in unofficial results at 11:25 p.m. with about 5.5 million votes counted at the time, as reported earlier.

That’s a hugely significant percentage of voters and is setting the stage for similar wins across the nation late into the night. It also appears that the campaign’s push to conduct 14 rallies in three days across the most significant states is paying off in a big way.

Administration officials, along with Trump, his family and supporters are monitoring the returns from the White House on Election Day and it appears that it’s going to be a long night and even longer day tomorrow as the ballots are being counted.

Former President and current Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump, has been indicted and is facing 37 counts in connection with his alleged mishandling of classified documents. The 49-page document was unsealed Friday.

The indictment  contains charges of the following: Willful retention of national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice, withholding a document or record, corruptly concealing a document or record, concealing a document in a federal investigation, scheme to conceal, and making false statements and representations.

Trump announced the indictment Thursday night on Truth Social, his social media platform:

“The corrupt Biden Administration has informed my attorneys that I have been Indicted, seemingly over the Boxes Hoax, even though Joe Biden has 1850 Boxes at the University of Delaware, additional Boxes in Chinatown, D.C., with even more Boxes at the University of Pennsylvania, and documents strewn all over his garage floor where he parks his Corvette, and which is ‘secured’ by only a garage door that is paper thin, and open much of the time.”

Trump declared himself an “INNOCENT MAN” and the subject of the “Greatest Witch Hunt of all time.” The Biden administration, he claimed, is ‘TOTALLY CORRUPT.”

The former president has argued that all the documents in question were declassified when he left the White House. “You’re the president of the United States, you can declassify just by saying it’s declassified, even by thinking about it,” he told Fox News host Sean Hannity in an interview last year.
