Bloomberg News is reporting live election results in the presidential race between Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and her Republican challenger, former President Donald Trump.
The first polls close at 6 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, Nov. 5. It’s possible neither candidate will reach the 270 electoral votes needed to win on election night, due to slow reporting in key states.

Key Races
We’re not tracking any key races at this hour.
Bloomberg News is also tracking how prediction markets are moving alongside the vote count. These numbers reflect the candidates’ odds of winning the presidency, according to participants trading in three of these markets.
Critics say some of the markets are illiquid or subject to manipulation. Supporters say the markets are useful for aggregating information, and the potential for profit creates incentives to fix mistakes.
Note: PredictIt numbers may not add up to 100 — they represent two different contracts, and fees and limits mean they are not always consistent. The charted markets represent a subset of those available to traders. Other markets include Betfair, Manifold, Metaculus, Interactive Brokers and Smarkets.
Check back for live election results from Bloomberg News on Tuesday, Nov. 5.
