The final electoral college count is Trump: 312, Harris: 226.
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.
ABC News projects that Initiative 83 in Washington, D.C., will pass. The initiative will implement ranked-choice voting in the district and allow voters not registered with a particular party to vote in partisan primaries. The measure was opposed by the local Democratic Party, but it's on track to pass with a very healthy margin of 73% to 23%, with 81% of the expected vote reporting.
ABC News projects that Trump will three of Nebraska's five electoral votes -- two from the statewide count, and one from the 3rd District. The 2nd Congressional District, which covers the Omaha area, hasn't been projected yet, and Harris has a much better shot at winning its one electoral vote.
2024 Election: Donald Trump projected to win Kan., Neb.
ABC News projects that Republican Kelly Ayotte will win the election for New Hampshire governor. With 50% of the vote counted, she leads Democrat Joyce Craig 53% to 46%. Ayotte will succeed retiring Gov. Chris Sununu, a fellow Trump-skeptical Republican.
ABC News projects that Arizona's measure protecting access to abortion will pass. The measure establishes a constitutional right to abortion until viability, with exceptions for later pregnancies.
After Roe v. Wade fell, Arizona's 1864-era law banning abortions almost entirely went into effect, until it was challenged in the courts and the state legislature ultimately repealed it, passing a law banning abortions after 15 weeks. Except Florida, where a measure failed tonight, every post-Roe abortion rights amendment has passed. And most Americans think abortion should be legal in all or most cases.
Measures are also projected to pass in Colorado, Maryland and New York, and we're watching for results in six other states.
