The Associated Press first tabulated vote counts in U.S. elections in 1848 and today gathers election results from local election officials in thousands of races nationwide. Results are reported as soon as they are available. AP’s Elections Analytics team declares winners when certain the trailing candidates no longer have a path to victory.
Design and development by Eunice Esomonu, Linda Gorman, Dan Kempton, Humera Lodhi, Katie Marriner, Simran Parwani, Pablo Barria Urenda, Robert Weston and Hyojin Yoo. Research from AP Elections Research and Quality Control. Reporting by Hannah Recht, Maya Sweedler and Robert Yoon. Project management by Michelle Minkoff Carlson. Editing by Linda Gorman and Ashlyn Still.
For 177 years, AP has been the steady voice America turns to on election night. Our reporters, election analysts and graphics journalists simply tell you who won — no spin, no bias, just facts. We're not owned by billionaires. We don't have an editorial agenda. We just count votes and report results, the same way we've done since 1848.
Democracy itself depends on having one trusted source that puts facts above everything else.
