ABC News is projecting that Trump is expected to win Indiana's 11 electoral votes. That is not a surprise. In previous elections, he won the state by 57 percent to 38 percent over Clinton in 2016, and 55 to 32 over Biden in 2020.

We have our first presidential race projections of the night

Now that all polls have closed in Vermont and Kentucky, ABC News is projecting that Harris will win Vermont's three electoral votes, and that Trump will win Kentucky's eight votes. Of course, this should come as no surprise; according to the final 538 forecast in these two states, there was a less than 1 in 100 chance of either state flipping its support from the party it backed in 2020.
