Track electoral vote count and results map for the presidential election
As the election enters its final stretch, it appears the presidential race remains close with a tight margin between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.
ABC News is projecting that Trump will hold Iowa's six electoral votes. The state became a topic of conversation over the last few days as the well-regarded pollster Selzer & Co. released a poll conducted on behalf of the Des Moines Register and Mediacom showing Harris ahead by 3 percentage points in the Hawkeye State, a surprising result for a state Trump won by 9 points in 2016 and 8 points in 2020. While Selzer has been known to publish outliers in the past that turned out to be more prescient than expected, it appears that this was not one of those times: Trump is ahead of Harris by 12 points in Iowa with 54% of the expected vote reporting.

Mississippi goes to Trump
Mississippi and its six Electoral College votes go to Trump.
Like its neighbor Alabama, Mississippi was last won by a Democrat in 1976, when Southerner Jimmy Carter won the presidency in what was the last gasp of the "Solid South." What was once one of the most reliable Democratic regions of the country is now one of the most reliably Republican regions.
