You’ll be able to see election results as they come in, thanks to Google Search
Google has announced that election results will be posted right after the polls close on Election Day.
This includes the presidential, senatorial, congressional, and gubernatorial races, as well as state-level referenda and ballot propositions. You simply need to enter the search query “election results.”
You’ll also be able to see counties with the highest voter interest in key battleground states, based on the Google search query “where to vote.” It’s all part of Google’s big push to get folks out to vote.
The tech giant has also been encouraging people to participate via its #voteIRL campaign.
If you’re looking to keep track of the polls, this seems like just the tool for you.
