Two more projections in now. Ohio and Idaho are both predicted to go to Donald Trump.
Ohio, the Buckeye State, was a major election battleground - it has backed the winner of nearly every presidential race over the last 200 years, including Trump in 2016.
There was no surprise with Idaho, with its four electoral college votes - the state has backed Republican candidates in the last 13 presidential races.
The Midwestern state of Ohio – with its 18 electoral delegates - has long been a key battleground state in presidential elections.
Donald Trump won there in 2016 with a margin of over 8%, appealing to working-class voters in one of America’s industrial heartland states.
This bucked a trend of much closer election results over the years.
Ohio has backed the eventual White House winner in the last 14 elections.
Polling stations closed at 19:30ET (00:30 GMT).
The deadline for counting all absentee ballots is 13 November. However, the overall number of outstanding ballots are being reported on election night.
So far, with 89% of votes counted, Trump is at 53%, while Biden is on 45%.
Polling stations have just closed in North Carolina (15 electoral votes); Ohio (18 electoral votes); and West Virginia (5 electoral votes).
Ohio, which has long been a battleground state in presidential elections, will be seen as a bellwether this year. Traditionally, every Republican that has lost Ohio has lost the race.
North Carolina is emerging as a key swing state, which has seen many a recent campaign visit from Trump. Now it's time to see if all those visits paid off.
A group of suburban women in Ohio is rallying voters to try and swing the election in November.
