The map above shows where Mr Trump improved on the share of the vote achieved by MittRomney, the Republican presidential candidate who failed to beat President Barack Obama in2012.

The Democrats lost support in the mid­west and around the Great Lakes, as well as in the southeast, with exit polls suggesting that men voted Republican in much higher numbers than women.

The poll of 24,500 people was conducted by Edison Research for ABC News, AP, CBS News,CNN, Fox News and NBC News.

The national share of the vote dropped by more than three points for the Democrats comparedwith 2012, while the Republican share of the vote did not change significantly.

At the state level, this pattern meant that the key state of Florida's 29 electoral college voteswere transferred from the Democrats to the Republicans. The state had previously voted forPresident Obama twice.

The result was on a knife edge, but Donald Trump won by one percent of the vote.

Votes given to other candidates in the state, principally the Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson,would have been enough to clinch the state for Hillary Clinton.

The strong support older voters gave the Republicans helped them to win Florida.

Pennsylvania was another striking victory for Mr Trump in the battleground states. The state hadvoted Democrat in the previous six presidential elections.

In addition to Pennsylvania and Florida, the president­elect also won in many other of the keystates by slim margins, as the chart below shows.

Mr Trump's electoral victory was underpinned by his success in winning over white voters, with58% of them voting for the Republican candidate. White voters made up 70% of the electorate inthis year's election.

Mr Trump was especially popular among non­college­educated white men, receiving seven in 10votes from that demographic group and six in 10 votes from non­college­educated white women.

The above map from the Associated Press shows how each state contributes to the electoralcollege. The size of states with low populations shrink in the centre of the country while states inthe north east with larger populations grow. It helps to give a different perspective on the electionresults, when compared to the traditional map below.
