Donald Trump has already been declared the winner in Florida, one of the key battleground states where victory was critical to his chances of winning a second term in office.

Of the more than 11 million votes counted Florida, Trump won 51.2% of the vote, enough to claim victory and take the state’s sizable 29 electoral college votes.

Joe Biden has trailed Trump by more than 3 points, taking 47.8% of the vote in a state which Democrats won in 2008 and 2012 with Barack Obama, but lost in 2016 with Hillary Clinton.
