WASHINGTON, United States (AFP) — Democrat Hillary Clinton kept alive her hopes of being elected president, winning the western state of Nevada, US networks projected on Tuesday.

Nevada has six Electoral College votes, allowing Clinton to make up a little of her deficit to Republican Donald Trump, who has a substantial lead.

The first candidate to 270 Electoral College votes wins the White House.
