The final polls have closed.
Here are the states left to call: Alaska, Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and three of Maine’s four electoral votes.
The updated scoreboard of electoral votes stands at 247 for former President Donald Trump and 210 for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Vice President Kamala Harris will not speak to the nation tonight, her campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond announced early Wednesday morning.
“We still have votes to count ... so you won’t hear from the vice president tonight," he told the crowd at Harris' watch party at Howard University. "She will be back here tomorrow."
"Go H-U and go Harris," he added.
Donald Trump's chances of returning to the White House are looking fairly bright, according to numerous live forecasts.
The New York Times is currently giving Trump a 93% chance of victory in its election forecast, while Polymarket pegged his chances at 96.6%.
Thus far, the Associated Press has only called on battleground state — North Carolina — leaving six outstanding. Trump is also currently leading in the so-called "Blue Wall states" of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.
Michigan has just 56% of the vote in, while Pennsylvania has 88% and Wisconsin has 83% of its votes reported, per the latest figures.
Grim looks are a common sight at Kamala Harris' Election Night watch party — as roughly half of the crowd headed home by midnight without a visit from the vice president.
In scenes reminiscent of Hillary Clinton's dismal watch party at the Javits Center in 2016, young Harris supporters on the campus of Howard University frowned, crossed their arms and stared with mouths agape at TV screens.
Harris, 60, was expected to triumphantly visit her alma mater in the event of good news — but remained at her official DC residence after losing North Carolina and lagging behind Donald Trump in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
