US Election 2024: Exit Polls
Exit polls, which help gauge voter sentiment and predict outcomes, will start after 5 pm EST (2:30 am IST on November 6).
US Election 2024: Results
It must be noted that news organisations can share state-specific data, but they won't officially declare a winner until all votes are counted in that state. In key battleground states, results may not be available until more comprehensive vote counts are in, especially if the election is tight.
If the race is clear-cut, we may see a winner declared within hours. However, in scenarios where the votes are closely contested, the final decision may take days or even weeks, depending on how swiftly the votes are counted and whether any legal challenges arise.
