As well as Georgia (16), South Carolina (9) and Vermont (3), which was just called for Hillary.

As of this moment Trump has won 19 electoral votes, while Hillary has 3.

With 12% of the vote in, Trump has a modest lead in Florida, and a bigger lead in Georgia

Update 7:00pm.

And following Trump, commanding lead in the first states, CNN just called Indiana and Kentucky for Donald Trump; while Hillary clinton projected to win Vermont.

While it is still very early in the evening, with only a handful of the early votes counted, the first results are coming in and Trump - at least for now - has the lead in both republican strongholds of Kentucky and Indiana with some 70% of the vote, in line with expectations.

Trump's early lead is thanks to Kentucky and Indiana.

Donald's Trump Victory Odds Rise Above 95%



To get a sense of what is going on with Hillary Clinton's winning changes, look no further than the following chart courtesy of the NYT, which has seen Hillary's victory odds plunge from 80% to less than 5%, as Trump's, which were at 13% just a few hours ago, are now over 95%. Or, as some would say, game over.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why you should never listen to forecasters.
