2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION HUB
What are the swing states?
Georgia is one of seven key swing states experts have identified that will likely determine the winner of the 2024 Presidential Election. The other swing states are: Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
It takes 270 electoral votes to win the White House, and these swing states have a collective 93 votes that will ultimately decide who wins.
When will we know who won the election?
An estimated 70% of ballots, including those cast early or absentee, were ready for tabulation when polls closed, according to the Georgia Secretary of State's Office. Final results, however, will depend on county-level reporting for in-person votes. However, we could know where Georgia stands before the end of election night, but it’s likely we’ll be waiting for presidential election results past election night.
Each state has unique vote-counting procedures impacting how quickly results will be available on election night, and the same can especially be said for the seven swing states that will decide the winner.
Key factors affecting lengthier waiting times include mail-in deadlines, early voting options and specific state policies on ballot counting.
States like Pennsylvania and Nevada, for example, could see delays due to mail-in ballot processing rules.
