Trump wins key battleground state of Florida, taking 29 electoral votes – AP

President Donald Trump is projected to win Florida’s 29 electoral votes, repeating his 2016 success and overcoming the first major challenge to winning reelection.

CNN and NBC followed suit shortly after AP declared Florida for the incumbent president. Trump has scored 51.2 percent of the votes in the state, with more than 95 percent of the votes counted, CNN said.
