Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton has won Virginia, which was expected to remain blue this election but turned out to be a close race when results began emerging on Tuesday night.
Fox News and NBC News called the race for Clinton at about 10:25 p.m.
With 90% of precincts reporting, Clinton had 48.3% of the vote, leading Donald Trump's 46.3%.
Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson had 3% of the vote, while Green Party nominee Jill Stein had taken 0.7%.
Some speculated that Virginia would become a blue state after this election, but the state has a history of voting red.
In the most recent RealClearPolitics polling average, Clinton was up by 5 points in the state.
Virginia is the home state of Clinton's running mate, Tim Kaine.
