With the presidential election of 2024 just around the corner, many Americans are asking when they will be able to know who will be president. Hence, we expect that, as in the 2020 election, we may not see the final results on November 3 and the major media outlets may announce tight races in the swing states. But that’s where there are benchmarks to track that help create intrigue as to who is ahead in the race for the presidency.

Election Night

Many polls will begin to close across the country on November 5, 2024, at 6 or 7 PM Eastern. These states should be among the first to release their results because states like Indiana and Kentucky do that. Swing states like Florida and North Carolina, with polls closing at 7:Western, will be important to observe at 30 PM Eastern, also. Any trend early on could give a preview whether it is going to be another short night or a few long days of waiting for the results to finally come in.

In the evening, attention will focus on other key swing states in Midwest and Rust Belt region. If Democratic candidates were to secure victories in places like Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania let alone Ohio Kahlen would have reasons to celebrate. That is in case it becomes an incredibly close call and we are forced to wait until the morning of the election to know who has won the electoral college.

Election Week

In case the key states are insufficiently decided on the election night, the next move is towards tallying up the mail-in and absentee votes. Timing on when these ballots can begin to be processed and counted also differs from state to state. For example, Florida includes counts of these ahead of its Election Day. However, Pennsylvania cannot start counting mail ballots until Election Day, Nov. 5.

The last three days are November 6-8 in which mail ballots in states that are closely contested will continue to be counted. Be on the lookout for new results from places such as Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, and Nevada which tilt this period. The first projection(s) of the winners for the remaining states may be made probably from the tallying of ballots cast by November 8 or 9.

December 14

Of course, we may have unofficial results before this takes place but the Electoral College is scheduled for December 14, 2024. The last day to decide any controversy over elections, for the electoral votes to be counted and a winner declared. With no legal fireworks that might seek to change the outcome, this media will have virtually anointed an unofficial President-elect. But December 14 confirms it or at least that is what has happened in many states across the country.
