Election night: What to watch for as America votes
All that’s left to do now is vote, count and wait for the results.
Americans entered Election Day with extreme uncertainty about who will be the 47th president after a historic campaign that will be remembered for two assassination attempts against former President Trump, Trump’s 34 felony convictions, and the Democrats swapping Vice President Harris for President Biden with only months to go.
Both the Trump and Harris campaigns are expressing confidence they’ll win.
Electoral College chaos is a real possibility, with Harris campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon telling reporters that some battleground states “may not move together in ways that they perhaps have in the past.”
“We may not know the results of this election for several days, but we are very focused on staying calm and confident throughout this period as the process goes through,” she said.
For Trump, it will be his final presidential campaign, win or lose: “Yeah, I would think so,” he said Tuesday while wearing a red Make America Great Again hat at a polling place in Florida.
Trump said he felt “sad” and “very fulfilled.”
- Trump will watch the results with family and Elon Musk at Mar-a-lago; his supporters gather at Florida's Palm Beach Convention Center.
- Harris will watch from her alma mater Howard University in Washington, D.C.
It’s a true toss-up, according to available data, but that doesn’t mean one candidate or the other won’t run away with an Electoral College victory.
- The final Nate Silver election model gave Harris a 50.015 percent chance of winning. Silver ran 80,000 simulations, and Harris won 40,012 of those.
- Here’s what The Hill’s panel of pundits think.
When will we know the winner? Based on history, statements from election officials, and media reports, here’s how it could play out (all times Eastern):
- Arizona: Polls close at 9 p.m. It could take several days if the race is as closes it was in 2020, when Biden won by just more than 10,000 votes. Most news outlets called the race for Biden in 2020 a full eight days after the election, although Fox News and The Associated Press made controversial early........
