The Associated Press (AP) and television networks have both called Vermont.

The AP declared Trump the winner of Kentucky as soon as polls closed in the state, although election officials there had not yet been released.

Biden's victory in Vermont is on expected lines as Democrats have kept the state in their column since 1992.
