Quick update on where things stand: Biden is on 119 electoral votes and Trump on 94. No call yet from Florida but looks extremely likely that the president will carry it. Meanwhile, Ohio (which, as an aside, has voted with the winner of every presidential election since 1964) is so far looking quite good for Biden. Georgia and North Carolina are too close to call, but leaning towards Trump. We are soon expecting our first results in Arizona and Wisconsin. Texas is very close.
