The Telegraph: How accurate are exit polls?
On election night, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris will closely monitor early exit poll results released at 5pm ET. These polls will provide insights into voter turnout and preferences but will be adjusted as more data comes in throughout the evening.
Exit polls survey how voters cast their ballots and their motivations, sampling in-person, early, and mail-in voters to gauge trends in the election.
The Telegraph: US election dates: When is polling and results?
The US presidential election is set for November 5, 2024, where Donald Trump will face Kamala Harris. Voters will also choose Congressional candidates. Key battleground states include Pennsylvania, Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Nevada, which are crucial for electoral success.
Polling times vary by state, with results expected to roll in after polls close. The winner will be inaugurated on January 20, 2025.
Times Of Israel: Trump wants the winner to be declared on election night. Here’s why that’s unlikely
Former President Donald Trump is urging for a quick declaration of the winner in the upcoming presidential election, echoing his 2020 claims of victory made before all votes were counted. He argues that results should be available shortly after polls close, despite the complexities of the U.S. voting system, which involves numerous jurisdictions and varying state laws that can delay the counting process.
Election experts emphasize that the priority is to ensure an accurate and secure tally, not to rush the results. Many states, particularly swing states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, have laws that prevent early processing of mail ballots, contributing to delays. While Trump and his supporters push for swift declarations, the reality of election logistics means that a definitive winner may not be known immediately.
