Polls have closed in some states and the first results are coming in in the high-stakes presidential match-up between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. According to 538's forecast, both candidates have a roughly equal chance to win.

Voters are still at polling places around the country, casting ballots to decide who controls not only the White House, but also Congress, state and local governments.

Reporters from 538 and ABC News will be following along every step of the way with live updates, analysis and commentary on the results. Keep up to date with our full live blog below!

Florida’s abortion rights ballot measure is very close

With 66% of the expected vote reported in Florida, Amendment 4, the ballot measure to enshrine abortion rights into the state constitution, is ahead with 59% of the vote in favor and 41% of the vote against, according to the AP. The measure would prevent lawmakers from passing laws that restrict abortion until fetal viability, effectively restoring the standard of Roe v. Wade in the state. But in Florida, 59% of the vote isn't enough — constitutional amendments require 60% of the vote to pass, so this one may come down to the wire.

Will Indiana or Missouri elect its first female governor?

There are 18 states that have never had a female governor. Tonight, two Democratic female candidates could break their state's dry spell: Jennifer McCormick in Indiana and Crystal Quade in Missouri. But because both these states lean red, it remains unlikely.

Currently, more women are serving as governor simultaneously than ever before. It's just 12.

That's Republicans' first flip of the night in the Senate, which means Democrats are already down to 50 seats (and could lose the majority with a Trump/Vance win) even if they hold all their other seats tonight. That's how difficult it was going to be for them.

ABC News projects Donald Trump will win West Virginia and Republican Jim Justice will win the Senate seat there and succeed Democrat-turned-independent Joe Manchin.
