Republican Donald Trump stunned the world on Nov. 8 by defeating heavily favored Hillary Clinton in the race for the White House, ending eight years of Democratic rule and sending the United States on a new, uncertain path. 

Donald Trump moved within reach of the White House on Nov. 8 night, capturing crucial victories over Hillary Clinton in Florida, Ohio and North Carolina, a remarkable show of strength in an unexpectedly tight race for the presidency.

Donald Trump took a dramatic win, becoming the 45th US President as he managed to win 276 electors, 7 over the 270 threshold necessary. Trump recorded crucial battleground victories in Florida, North Carolina and Ohio, Alaska and Pensylvania. The victories are stunning for a candidate long seen as unlikely to win the presidency. Hillary Clinton conceded her defeat’s.

BELGRADE - France's far-right National Front party leader Marine Le Pen congratulated Donald Trump on Wednesday as he looked set for a shock victory in the U.S. presidential election.

"Congratulations to the new president of the United States Donald Trump and to the free American people!" she said on Twitter.

BELGRADE - According to Bloomberg News' prediction, Republican candidate Donald Trump is set to become the next president of the United States

At the same time, Clinton campaign chair Podesta reminded that the vote count is not over yet and called on Clinton's supporters to wait for tomorrow.

By the time you are reading these lines, the presidential election in the United States will be over. You will know, in other words, whether the next American president will be Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. But I am writing these lines many hours before the election results. I have no idea, therefore, who will be the next leader of the world's superpower. 

US citizens across the country’s 50 states and Washington district have started casting their ballots from 7am (Greek time), Tuesday, November 8, to choose the 45th President between Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump.

Americans go to the ballot box today to elect their new president. Many argue that the choice is between bad and worse.  

Whatever the outcome, the result will reverberate around the world. Ironically, if the person billed as the "bad choice" wins, many will breathe a sigh of relief because the person considered the "worse choice" does indeed appear to be that. 

The FBI's announcement that it had found nothing to incriminate US presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in her emails buoyed stocks internationally, while this, coupled with local traders' moderate satisfaction with Friday's cabinet reshuffle, led to gains at Athinon Avenue on Monday.
