The 2024 Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump has won the state of West Virginia.
This has put Trump’s number of electoral votes at 23, ahead of Democrat candidate Kamala Harris who has 3 electoral votes.
Meanwhile, voting in Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, has resulted in a tie after Vice President Harris and former President Trump each secured three votes.
Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are tied with three votes each in the first result produced on election day.
Dixville Notch, where there are just six voters, has a tradition dating back to 1960 for being the first town in the country to complete in-person voting.
An accordion version of the US national anthem rang out before voters cast their ballots at midnight.
The count was completed 15 minutes later.
Located on the US-Canada border in New Hampshire’s northern tip, the unincorporated township welcomed four Republican and two undeclared voters to participate in the midnight voting ritual.
While Dixville Notch’s results rarely predict the final outcome or even reflect New Hampshire’s choice, the event remains a cherished political tradition that attracts national media attention each election cycle.
