BBC, Nov.6: Donald Trump and Kamala Harris continue to pick up US states, as voters in Florida narrowly reject measure to overturn state’s six-week abortion ban.

So far, Trump and Harris have secured states they're expected to win - the final result will come down to seven swing states.

Vote counting is picking up in two of them - Georgia and North Carolina - but the result is too close to call.

The second biggest prize is the Senate, which the Democrats narrowly hold. Republicans have taken one seat from them so far.

Harris is ahead with women voters - but not by a landslide, current exit polls suggests.
