Abortion rights amendment is projected to be defeated in Florida

ABC News projects that the ballot initiative that would have granted Floridians the right to an abortion will come just shy of its needed 60% threshold to pass. It's at 57% yes to 43% no with 86% of the expected vote reporting. Of course abortion remains a huge issue this year, and nine other states are voting on abortion rights ballot initiatives tonight. Florida has required a supermajority of 60% for constitutional ballot amendments to pass an initiative requiring it passed in 2006>).

Georgia trends Trump, Harris will need help from big Democratic vote bases

With about two-thirds of Georgia's expected vote reporting, Trump leads by 6 points, 53% to 47%. Among the counties where at least 90% of the expected vote has reported (53 of the state's 159 counties), Trump is doing about 3 points better in margin than he did in 2020 against Biden. In a state Biden carried by just 0.24 points, a statewide trend like that across all counties would surely mean victory for Trump.

Harris' hopes lie in gaining votes in some of the big Atlanta-area counties that were pivotal to Biden's win, as none of those has reported more than about three-fourths of the expected vote yet (and Gwinnett County has reported only 16% of its expected vote). The good news for her is that she's running ahead of Biden in some of those places; the bad news is that some of those counties still have more GOP-leaning Election Day votes to process.

Trump projected to pick up four more states -- including Texas

ABC News is projecting that Trump is expecting to win North Dakota, South Dakota, Texas and Wyoming -- all reliably red states. With this, the former president will pick up the four state’s combined 49 electoral votes.

With about 57% of the expected vote in for the Lone Star State, Trump currently leads Harris by 8 percentage points (53% to 45%). If this trend continues, Harris will have underperformed Biden’s 2020 margin. That year, Biden lost by about 5 percentage points -- one of the closest Texas races for the White House in the last quarter century. In 2016, Trump carried the state by 9 percentage points over Hillary Clinton.
