As numerous polling stations across the nation began shutting down, Republican candidate Donald Trump urged his supporters to remain in line to cast their votes. "Hello Republicans, we're doing very well. If you're in line, stay in line; they cannot do anything about it, and we're going to win big," he declared in a post on X.

Polling places in the United States started closing in the evening hours, with initial reports indicating closures in states like Kentucky, Vermont, and Indiana, accompanied by preliminary election results. According to reports, most states will conclude voting between 8:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. Meanwhile, crucial battleground states, pivotal in the race for the White House, are set to wrap up between 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. These key states include Nevada, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania.

To secure a win, a candidate must garner the favor of 270 Electoral College delegates out of a total of 538 representatives. It's important to note that polling stations are not permitted to close as long as a voter who arrived before 8:00 p.m. remains in line.
