With projections made in most states across the country, ABC News has projected that former President Donald Trump will win the high-stakes presidential match-up against Vice President Kamala Harris.

The judge made an oral ruling and a written petition will be filed in the morning, a spokesperson said.
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro confirmed there was a series of bomb threats in the state and said his office is collaborating with local, state, and federal law enforcement in response to the threats.
