Results in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin may not come in until Wednesday morning, and Arizona and Nevada are unlikely to see calls made before Wednesday or Thursday.
The presidential race remains too close to call on Tuesday night, with millions of votes remaining to be counted in key swing states of Arizona, Nevada, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
Turnout is high all across the country and could surpass 2020 levels once all the votes are counted.
As things stand, Donald Trump has 230 electoral votes and Kamala Harris has 205, both falling shy of the necessary 270 needed to win the presidency.
The Harris campaign said they still view the so-called “Blue Wall” states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin as their best path to 270 and believe high turnout in Philadelphia, Detroit, and Milwaukee could push them over the edge. Those results may not come in until Wednesday morning or later, however.
Results in Arizona and Nevada are also not expected until Wednesday or Thursday, as both states are heavy vote-by-mail states. Arizona is a virtual tie with 53% of the vote in, while no counts have been reported in Nevada.
In past cycles, early complete results from Republican-heavy rural counties have come in early, giving their party an early lead in states. Turnout and partisanship trends this cycle have been in flux.
Of the 8 swing states, only North Carolina has been called thus far, with the state’s 16 electoral votes going to Donald Trump.
