United Kingdom Tuesday, Nov. 5, is Election Day for the 2024 General Election
Wake County voters who requested an absentee ballot must ensure their ballot is delivered to the Board of Elections Operations Center by 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 5. The deadline to accept absentee ballots also applies to those delivered by mail. A postmark on or before Election Day does not establish timely receipt of a ballot delivered after the deadline. Please note that absentee ballots cannot be returned at an election day polling place.
All eligible voters in line by 7:30 p.m. will be allowed to vote. After all voters have left the polling place, officials will begin closing the polls. The first results available on the NCSBE Results Dashboard will be the approved absentee by mail votes. At 7:30 p.m., county boards will begin closing the in-person early voting polls. This process may be viewed by the public at the Board of Elections Operations Center. It may take an hour or more to tabulate early voting results from all 22 early voting sites, and those results will be posted once the process is completed.
After the early voting results are available, Election Day precinct results will be posted as they arrive. Depending on how many voters are in line at a particular polling place and its distance to the Board of Elections, it may take until 11 p.m. for all 212 precincts to report.
