The former president is projected to have won in two swing states - Georgia and North Carolina, as reported by BBC News.
Swing states are at the heart of the election, as both major political parties are competing for votes. With its 19 electoral votes, Pennsylvania is the biggest prize among the battleground states and a crucial piece of both campaigns’ path to victory.
As of this writing, it's predicted that Trump will prevail in Pennsylvania, as well as four other states: Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
However, nothing has been announced yet.
