State and national early results
U.S. president
Early results: Donald Trump declared victory in the race for the White House, overcoming current vice president Kamala Harris after a heated, tense and too-close-to-call campaign that capped off when Trump was projected to secure the last electoral votes he needed to win with Pennsylvania. Harris delivered a concession speech at her alma mater, Howard University, this afternoon.
What we covered: The outcome of the presidential election is expected to have a big impact on thousands of asylum seekers who have been waiting months to enter the U.S. through the Biden administration’s current appointment program.
State Assembly, 75th District
Early results: Republican Carl DeMaio appears poised to easily defeat fellow Republican Andrew Hayes, winning 60% of the vote so far.

San Diego mayor
Early results: Democratic incumbent Mayor Todd Gloria celebrated a strong lead over his opponent Larry Turner, winning 54.6% of the vote in early returns.

A man apparent drowned in the waters near the Oceanside Pier Saturday morning, despite efforts by lifeguards and paramedics to revive him.
The Oceanside Fire Department’s Lifeguard Division and the Oceanside Police Department responded to a report of a missing man at about 4:30 a.m.. Officials said the man was last seen swimming in the ocean about a half-hour earlier.
Lifeguards and police immediately initiated a coordinated search effort using pier vantage points, surveillance cameras and watercraft, but the search was suspended at approximately 5:30 a.m. after no one was found, fire officials said.
“At approximately 10:50 a.m., lifeguards discovered an unresponsive adult male, matching the earlier description, in the water near Lifeguard Tower 12, at Oceanside Harbor Beach,” Division Chief Blake Dorse said in a statement. “The individual was removed from the water, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation was immediately initiated.”

Fire and rescue personnel continued efforts to resuscitate the man on the way to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. He is believed to be the one who was reported missing near the pier.
Authorities did not release the man’s name.
“The Oceanside Lifeguard Division reminds the public to exercise caution when entering the ocean, especially during early morning hours or when lifeguards are not actively monitoring the water,” Dorse said. “Always swim near an open lifeguard tower and avoid entering the water alone.”
