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!

Stop me if you've heard this before, but Wisconsin is close

Only 20% of the expected vote is reporting in Wisconsin, but I can already tell it's shaping up to be another photo finish there. Currently, Harris has 51% and Trump has 47%. In the Senate race, though, Democrat Tammy Baldwin is running slightly ahead of Harris. She currently has 55% to Republican Eric Hovde's 43%.

How much will abortion matter?

In many swing states, abortion was a top three issue for Americans as they weighed how to vote in this election. But other issues, such as the economy and immigration, also claimed their attention. How much will abortion matter in the end?

Polling from KFF, a nonprofit health policy research, polling and news organization, has found that its a top issue for women voters under 30, with 40% saying its the No. 1 issue determining their vote. And women voters of all ages feel that the election could have a major impact on abortion access, and felt more hopeful and satisfied with Harris as a candidate after Biden left the race and she became the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Voters trust Harris more on the issue more than Trump, according to polling. An AP/Norc poll from October found 52% of registered voters gave her an advantage on the issue, compared to 28% who trusted Trump more. Whether that makes a difference for Harris -- or Democrats in general -- in swing states tonight, though, is one of the issues we’ll be watching closely.

Americans feel what happens on the question of abortion will be very different if Democrats win or if Republicans win.

Checking in on Alabama’s 2nd District

With 32% of the expected vote reporting in the open race in Alabama's 2nd District, Figures, the Democrat, is ahead of Dobson, the Republican, 62% to 38%. Dobson, one of just several non-incumbent Republican women running in somewhat competitive races today, isn't favored in our forecast, winning just nine-in-100 simulations. I'll be watching this race and a few others where GOP women could stand to gain ground tonight.

New York projected to go for Harris, but lots of House races still TBD

ABC News has projected that Harris will win New York and its 28 electoral votes. With 36% of the expected vote reporting there, she's ahead by 30 points, although that margin will come down to some extent as more votes are reported (based on what's outstanding).

In the Senate race, ABC News has also projected that Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand will easily win reelection, too. The big thing to watch in New York, though, is the state's half-dozen competitive House races. But each of those remains far from decided at this point.

Kamala Harris will win New York and Rhode Island, and Donald Trump will win Louisiana, ABC News projects.
