Just days after former President Donald Trump was projected to have won the presidency, Trump's transition team operation has begun, with transition co-chairs confirming that he will be selecting personnel to serve under his leadership in the coming days.
Trump is also the projected winner in Arizona, a state the former president flipped after losing it to Joe Biden in 2020.
Trump's projected win in the vital swing state marks a sweep of the battleground states.

Former President Donald Trump is projected to win Michigan, ABC News reports. Trump has now flipped all three "blue wall" states, which include Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan.
In an email sent to the Harris campaign staff obtained by ABC News, Harris campaign chair Jen O'Malley Dillon says: "I'll leave you with this: losing is unfathomably painful. It is hard. This will take a long time to process. But the work of protecting America from the impacts of a Trump Presidency starts now."
Dillon adds that Harris told Trump that she would work with Biden to ensure a peaceful transfer of power, unlike what happened in 2020. Harris will also hold an all-staff call after her speech to talk about the road ahead.
President Joe Biden is expected to speak with former President Donald Trump by phone Wednesday to offer his congratulations, according to an administration official.
Biden is planning to address the nation Thursday, the source said.
Democrat Tammy Baldwin is the projected winner in Wisconsin, ABC News reports. She will return to the Senate after defeating Republican challenger Eric Hovde.
