AP Race Call: Donald Trump wins Idaho
Donald Trump won Idaho for the third consecutive election on Tuesday, adding four electoral votes to his tally.
Idaho is deeply red, and the Republican presidential nominee has carried the state with more than 60% of the vote for the last several elections. The last time a Democratic presidential nominee won Idaho was 60 years ago, when Lyndon Johnson beat Republican Barry Goldwater by a narrow margin of just over 5,300 votes.
The Associated Press declared Trump the winner at 11:00 p.m. EST.

AP Race Call: Kamala Harris wins 1st Congressional District in Maine, one electoral vote
Voters in Maine’s 1st Congressional District, which is comprised of wealthy coastal communities, delivered an electoral vote to Democrat Kamala Harris on Tuesday.
Maine is one of two states that divide electoral votes with two votes going to the statewide winner and one apiece to the winner of each congressional district. Harris won the vote in the state’s more liberal district. The rural, conservative 2nd District voted for Republican Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020.
The Associated Press declared Harris the winner of Maine’s 1st District at 10:45 p.m. EST.

AP Race Call: Donald Trump wins Iowa
Donald Trump has won Iowa, claiming the state’s six electoral votes.
Formerly considered a swing state, Iowa has proved to be a clear example of Trump’s appeal among Republican voters and his staying power in the GOP. A majority of Iowans backed Democrat Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012 but chose Trump decisively in 2016 and again in 2020. Now, after easily earning the support of Iowa’s Republican caucusgoers earlier this year and buoying his reelection bid, Trump has won the state in three consecutive presidential elections.
The Associated Press declared Trump the winner at 10:40 p.m. EST.

AP Race Call: Donald Trump wins Kansas
Donald Trump has won Kansas and its six electoral votes.
Republican candidates have carried Kansas in every presidential election since 1964, and it was the third election in a row that Trump has won the state. Kansas City-area suburbs that once were reliable GOP strongholds started leaning more Democratic after Trump was elected president in 2016, but Trump has retained his strong popularity in much of the state and particularly in rural areas.
The Associated Press declared Trump the winner at 10:39 p.m. EST.
