Polls have closed in most states in the eastern US, giving slightly more shape to results of the US presidential race.
Several projections give Republican Donald Trump the states of Florida, South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Missouri, notching him 95 of 271 needed electoral votes. He was expected to win all seven states.
Democrat Kamala Harris is widely projected to win Maryland, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and the District of Columbia, as expected, giving her 35 electoral votes.
Harris has a lead in Ohio, which had been projected to go to Trump, and voting tallies show Texas still neck and neck, though most votes have not yet been counted in both states.
Harris is also leading in the key states of Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Michigan, and in Virginia and Virginia, though vote-counting remains early in all of those states.
Trump has a lead in Georgia, another key state, and in Kansas.
