Just days after former President Donald Trump was projected to have won the presidency, Trump's transition team operation has begun, with transition co-chairs confirming that he will be selecting personnel to serve under his leadership in the coming days.

Trump is also the projected winner in Arizona, a state the former president flipped after losing it to Joe Biden in 2020.

Trump's projected win in the vital swing state marks a sweep of the battleground states.

Republican Senate win in Indiana

ABC News is also projecting that Republican Jim Banks will win the Senate race over Democrat Valerie McCray in Indiana. Banks is a Trump supporter who voted against certifying the 2020 election won by Biden, and Trump endorsed him in this race. Democrats haven't won a Senate race in the state since 2012.

We have our first presidential race projections of the night

Now that all polls have closed in Vermont and Kentucky, ABC News is projecting that Harris will win Vermont's three electoral votes, and that Trump will win Kentucky's eight votes. Of course, this should come as no surprise; according to the final 538 forecast in these two states, there was a less than 1 in 100 chance of either state flipping its support from the party it backed in 2020.
