The US citizens are heading towards the polls for the US Presidential Election 2024 while results are expected to be declared state by state starting at 18:00 EST on Tuesday, reported BBC News. The tight race in between US Vice President Kamala Harris and former US President Donald Trump might lead to really longer wait times for the results specifically in the key swing states like Pennsylvania where a recount can be certainly triggered by a narrow margin.

BBC News noted that the early voting turnout has been really high with over 83 million US citizens casting their ballots while early results cannot really predict the final outcome due to potential shifts as mail in ballots are counted.

If we trace history, we can see that the results of elections have certainly varied in announcement timings like for instance, in the 2020 elections; results were not really confirmed until days later whereas Donald Trump won pretty shortly in the year 2016 after the polls closed. Among the several swing states, Georgia expects quick results while Michigan and Nevada might take longer time.
