Deep Tide TechFlow News, on November 6, according to CNN, voting stations in several states, including the key swing state of Georgia, began to close at 7 PM Eastern Time on November 5, 2024. Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger stated that due to a credible threat briefly disrupting voting, approximately 10 polling places in the state's 'minority' counties will extend their hours.
The states closing in this round and their electoral vote counts are: Georgia (16 votes), Indiana (11 votes), Kentucky (8 votes), South Carolina (9 votes), Vermont (3 votes), and Virginia (13 votes).
Georgia, as a relatively emerging swing state, helped Biden win the White House in 2020, when Biden won by a narrow margin of 11,779 votes, marking the first time in nearly 30 years that the state turned to support the Democratic Party. The latest polls show that the presidential race in Georgia remains a dead heat in 2024.
