Florida, NH, at least one other state. I thought states were very careful not to release such returns. These aren't exit polls, I think, so this appears to be the responsibility of election officials. 
Also, in one state a court ordered polls to be kept open beyond closing time due to computer glitches. Should that remedy have been applied statewide; I don't see how a court could calibrate a precise remedy in terms of number of minutes extra.
