Follow this last day of campaigning for the American presidential election live.
What about polls in swing states?
It is often said that national polls only give a partial indication of the possible outcome of the election. Indeed, each American election is mainly played out in seven undecided states. The winner of the presidential election is the one who manages to tip the balance to his side in the greatest number of these “swing states”.
And if we look at the polls in these states, we see that Kamala Harris is leading in four of them: Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan. The other three (North Carolina, Georgia and Arizona) seem more committed to the cause of its rival. But nothing is decided, given the very narrow gap between the two candidates. Everything is still possible in each of these seven states.
When will the results of the American presidential election come out?
If the first polling stations will close this Tuesday, November 5 at 6 p.m. (Eastern Time, i.e. 11 p.m. Belgian time) in Indiana and Kentucky, voters will still be busy voting during the evening in certain other states. Since election laws generally vary by state, sometimes by county, or even city, there are also differences in counting speed, ballot counting, and polling station closing times, such as: reminds the Washington Post.
