President Donald Trump is projected to win Ohio by about 450,000 votes early Wednesday morning, but the winner of the presidency has not yet been declared.

At the time of publication, Trump had garnered 53.4 percent of votes in Ohio with about 5.76 million votes counted, according to the Ohio Secretary of State website. In 2016, Trump won Ohio by eight points.

All precincts have reported and only absentee ballots not received by boards of elections prior to Election Day left to be counted. Ohio accepts absentee ballots 10 days after the election as long as they are postmarked by the Monday before the election.

Democratic nominee Joe Biden leads the country with 248 electoral votes over Trump’s 214, according to the Associated Press, but the nation has yet to be called as Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia, North Carolina, Nevada and Arizona are still tight races.

Both Trump and Biden made campaign stops in Ohio in October, and the first debate took place in Cleveland Sept. 29.
