Election Day 2024: Live results and analysis
The big day is finally here: Tuesday, Nov. 5, is Election Day across the U.S. Millions of people will head to the polls today - joining more than 80 million who already voted early or by mail - to decide who controls everything from the White House to Congress to state and local governments.
All eyes are, of course, on the presidential race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. The election will likely come down to seven key swing states - Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin - where the polls are razor-close.

President Biden to spend Election Day at White House with no public events
For the better part of 2023 and 2024, President Joe Biden plotted a course to Nov. 5, 2024. As the incumbent, the veteran politician was the presumptive Democratic nominee, clinching enough delegates in March, and locked in a tight race with former President Donald Trump.
But instead of spending Election Day preparing for an evening speech, the president's daily schedule is empty beyond his daily briefing by aides: No public events.
The president and first lady Jill Biden will spend election night watching the election results in the White House residence with "long time aides and senior White House staff," according to a White House official.

FBI 'aware' of 2 fabricated news clips, press releases urging not to vote and rigged inmate voting
The FBI is aware of two fabricated news clips and press releases urging people not to vote and rigged inmate voting, according to a statement they released on Tuesday morning.
"The FBI was made aware of two instances of its name and insignia being misused in promoting false narratives surrounding the election," the FBI said in a statement. "The first is a fabricated newsclip purporting to be a terrorist warning issued by the FBI. The fabricated newsclip reports falsely that the FBI purportedly stated that Americans should 'vote remotely' due to a high terror threat at polling stations. This video is not authentic and does not accurately represent the current threat posture or polling location safety. Additionally, a fabricated video containing a fabricated FBI press release alleges that the management of five prisons in Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Arizona rigged inmate voting and colluded with a political party. This video is also not authentic, and its contents are false."
This is the second such warning the FBI has given in recent days.

Trump arrives to polling place to cast ballot
Trump has cast his ballot in Palm Beach, Florida and says his latest presidential campaign was the best yet.
Trump arrived at the voting site around 11:30 a.m.
"I ran a great campaign. I think it was maybe the best of the three. We did great in the first one. We did much better in the second one but something happened. I would say this is the best campaign we've run," he said, standing next to his wife, Melania Trump.
