Election Day 2024: Polls nearing close in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware
Voters across Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware are headed to the polls Tuesday to make their voices heard in the 2024 election for president and several key races in each state.
In the race to the White House, Pennsylvania remains a critical win as Donald Trump and Kamala Harris battle to secure the swing state’s 19 electoral votes.
Meanwhile, U.S. Senate contests in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey have been closely watched throughout the country as two Delaware races could make history.
Polls will close at 8 p.m. in each state as ballot counting kicks into full gear. However, Pennsylvania results are not expected on Election Night, since mail-in ballots couldn’t start being processed until 7 a.m.
One county in Pennsylvania has also extended voting hours to 10 p.m. after a machine outage delayed voters Tuesday morning.
