Let me summarize the voting times for the U.S. presidential election for everyone: (Beijing time)

1. November 5 (Tuesday)

1:00 PM Two small towns in New Hampshire begin voting, marking the official start of the election! (Mainly serves to test the market's reaction)

7:00 PM Various polling places on the East Coast of the United States begin to open, and voters can line up to vote in person.

2. November 6 (Wednesday)

8:30 AM - 10:00 AM The critical seven swing states start voting. Both the Democratic and Republican parties have their own fixed voter bases, and the goal is to gain the support of the swing states. Voting in the swing states will be completed during this time period, and the key market movements will occur in the morning.

9:00 AM Voting ends in Pennsylvania, with 19 votes out of 93 from the seven swing states, a crucial battleground. Harris has visited this state more than 20 times this year, and Trump has also campaigned here multiple times, highlighting the importance of Pennsylvania!

After 12:00 PM Beijing time on November 6, the results from each state will be announced, making the national vote count clearer. Until December 11, each state will certify the vote results, and on December 17, the Electoral College will hold a meeting to cast the official votes. Congress will convene on January 6, 2025, and on January 20, the new president will take the oath of office at the White House and “get to work”!
