Election Results: Trump 47
After many months of campaigning, vitriol, and intrigue, the 2024 election is over, and Donald Trump will be the second person in history to serve two nonconsecutive terms as President. His win was decisive in the Electoral College and the popular vote reflecting several major shifts among the American electorate.
The Senate also flipped from Democratic to Republican control, with a couple of seats still to be called. Control of the House is also still uncertain, as votes are still being counted in California, but it looks like it could go either way, meaning either a total sweep for Republicans or a divided government if the Democrats prevail.
It’s still too early to assess what all this will mean for the wine industry. Still, we know some key issues will be on the table, including the Farm Bill, regulatory changes, the dietary guidelines, the possibility of tariffs, and others. Once the key players in the Administration are in place, predicting directions and outcomes will be more feasible.
