Updates about tonight's races in Kentucky
Some interesting divergence in the race calls so far: CNN and NBC called Indiana for Trump, but neither the AP nor Fox has (which means we haven't yet). Fox and the AP have called Kentucky for Trump, but the other networks say it's too early. Fox and the AP have also called Vermont for Biden; Fox alone called Virginia for Biden.
Sometimes these early calls are clues as how the night is going to go. This is a confusing mixed bag, so there's no clarity here yet.
