Just like in past years, the official information in this feature will come from the Voting Information Project, a partnership between Democracy Works, a nonpartisan civic organization, and state and local election officials.
Information in Search and Maps will update as state and local election officials update voting locations through the Voting Information Project. You’ll also always see a link directing you to your official state or local election office website to learn more.

Find real-time Election Day results on Search
As with previous U.S. elections, we’re working with The Associated Press (AP) to present election results on Google Search. Starting on Election Day, November 5, you can go to Google Search to get real-time updates on the election from the AP. The feature will update regularly as the AP receives updated vote count information on contests and ballot measures from election officials.
So whether you’re looking for information about voting or for live results once the polls close on Election Day, Google Search and Maps have authoritative information to help you learn more.
