Welcome to the New York State Board of Elections Election Night Reporting Page. Please
be advised that the polls in New York State close at 9 PM. It may take some time
after 9 PM for results to begin to appear on this page. If a county has not yet uploaded
their election results to this website or if you are looking for local election results, please
contact the county board of elections. Write-in results are shown in the aggregate. Individual
names for write-ins are only published in the official results and only by the State Board
if a write-in candidate is a winner.

The unofficial election night results displayed on this web site are based on the unofficial
results reported to us by each County Board of Elections and as such, are posted on the web as
a convenience to the public. New York State Election Law requires a complete recanvass of all
votes cast on Election Day and the canvass of all valid absentee, special, and affidavit
(provisional) ballots before any election results can be certified. Once all ballot counting
tasks have been completed (usually within 15 days for a primary and within 25 days for a general
election), each County Board certifies their respective election results pursuant to and in
accordance with the applicable sections of New York State Election Law
(see NYS Election Law, Sections 3-222, 9-200, 9-208).
Those certifications are then sent to the State Board for aggregation, certification and
publication/posting.
