24.00 Swedish time: the first polling stations close
At midnight Swedish time, Indiana and Kentucky close their polling stations. Here, the Republicans are expected to win. In Indiana, Vigo County has voted for the winner of every election since 1956. But don’t expect that result: Indiana is known for slow voting. Expressen TV will have reports of the election vigils for Trump and Biden.
01.00 Florida and Virginia closing time
Virginia’s major Wavemaster state has clearly voted, including many in Florida, another major Wavemaster, but some Florida polling stations are open for another hour. Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, South Carolina and Vermont will also close. In Georgia, Republicans are traditionally strong, but Biden has had some success in the polls. It is better to keep an eye on it.
01.30 Swedish time: keep an eye on the Ohio Shaker
North Carolina, Ohio and West Virginia are closing. The wavemaster state of Ohio turns into a thriller, a loss for Trump here is a disaster for the Republicans.
Polling stations in 17 states will close at this time
At 2pm tonight, polling stations in Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee and Washington will be closed. DC. Some polling stations are also closing in Michigan and Texas. Wave State Pennsylvania is important, but the vote count here is believed to take several days. Read more here at The Guardian.

The polls in Arkansas are closing. At 2:30 AM, CNN and Reuters will release updated Edison Research national polls, with percentage estimates of support for Joe Biden and Donald Trump, respectively.
03.00 Various states of the wave master are closing
Now things are happening. The Wavemaster states of Colorado, Minnesota and Wisconsin are closing their polling places. We can look back at the vote count in Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, and Ohio. But also toward Arizona, which tends to count votes quickly and where Republicans tend to win, but where he has even looked this time. Voting ends in Arizona, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming.
04.00 Swedish time: the scent of victory?
Iowa, Montana, Nevada and Utah are now closing. Both Iowa and Nevada have wavemaster roles, and the outcome is uncertain. Typically you smell the scent of who’s going to win at this point, but that’s not guaranteed at all. On Expressen TV, there will be a report of Trump’s election vigil.
05.00 Now the US elections can be decided
California, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington have finished voting. Even if we can’t be sure we can pinpoint a definitive winner, reviews will salute. And think about it: In the 2008 election, Fox News was able to call Barack Obama president at this exact moment. In 2012, the AP declared at 5:38 a.m. that Obama had won. And in the extremely tight 2016 election, the AP declared on Aug. 29 that Trump had been elected president.
06.00 Hawaii closes polling stations
Polling stations in Hawaii are closing, but if you’ve been up for that long it’s not interesting, but whether Trump or Biden, or both, have been declared winners.

Polls in Alaska are closing. We can tell whether the outcome of the US elections has led to the violence and unrest that some fear. For you, it’s time to eat breakfast, read Expressen, and then go to school or work or maybe work from home today.
Joe Biden and Donald Trump have a great family life
