Live 2024 US Election Results: President, Senate, Congress and Governors

We're tracking all races nationally in the 2024 general election. Check back for updates on the presidential, senatorial, congressional and gubernatorial races as the polls close and ballots are counted.

Race for President

Much of the presidential campaign between former President Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris focused on seven competitive states: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Together, the swing states have 93 electoral votes. California has 54. In most states, the winner of the popular vote receives all of the state's electoral votes. In 2000 and 2016, Democrats won the popular vote, but the candidate did not receive the 270 electoral votes needed to win.

It may take days to know who will be the next president of the United States because voting options are tight and voters prefer mail-in voting. Races on this site are advertised by the Associated Press.
