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. Early Wednesday morning, Trump secured enough Electoral College votes to set himself up for a second presidency, including by flipping the key swing states of Georgia, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
Beyond the presidential race, voters also hit the polls around the country Tuesday and cast ballots to decide who controls Congress, state and local governments. Reporters from 538 and ABC News followed along every step of the way with live updates, analysis and commentary on the results. Follow our election-night coverage in full below.

Let's check in on the results in the seven main presidential swing states. As we've reported, Trump is already projected to win Georgia, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. And so far, more votes have been counted for him than for Harris in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin as well. That raises the possibility that he could sweep all seven states for a 312-226 Electoral College victory.

Trump claims in his victory speech that he has won the popular vote. That's a little premature; while he does currently have 5 million more votes than Harris, Harris is expected to add to her total as more ballots are counted in states like California. If Trump does win the popular vote, it will be a remarkable achievement: Only one Republican (George W. Bush in 2004) in the last eight presidential elections has done so.
