Odaily News The seven key states that will have the greatest impact on the outcome of the presidential election will close their polling stations between 7pm and 10pm Eastern Time (8am to 11am Beijing Time on November 6). As the results of the statistics of each state are released, the final results are expected to be announced as early as around 12pm Beijing Time. Specifically: After the polling stations are closed at 7pm in Georgia (8am Beijing Time on November 6) and 7:30pm in North Carolina (8:30am Beijing Time on November 6), the initial winning trend will gradually emerge. If Harris performs well in these states, it may mean that she does not have to rely entirely on the "blue wall" states where the votes are counted more slowly-Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. On the contrary, if Trump wins these two southern battleground states, Harris may still win through the "blue wall" states, but the results will be announced later. Polls in Michigan and Pennsylvania will close at 8 p.m. Eastern Time (9 a.m. Beijing Time, November 6), Wisconsin and Arizona will close at 9 p.m. (10 a.m. Beijing Time, November 6), and Nevada will close at 10 p.m. (11 a.m. Beijing Time, November 6).
