The Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump has won Pennsylvania, putting victory within his grasp.

Trump has almost closed off a path for his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton to become the first woman president of the United States by securing the Keystone State's whopping 20 electoral votes.

He is just six shy of the 270 majority need to win the White House, reports the Washington Post.

It is for the first time since 1988 that Pennsylvania has been won by a GOP presidential candidate which is a sign of the resonance that Trump's message had with white voters outside of the urban centers.

The states still un-called are New Hampshire, Minnesota, Arizona, Alaska, Wisconsin and Michigan.
