Election results in real-time
Tuesday, November 4, 2008
Posted by Robert Leland, Software Engineer
Today, Americans all across the country are voting, and the results will soon be tallied. We'll make sure you can stay abreast of the election returns on the same Google News pages that already bring you current election news. We'll be providing results from the presidential, Senate, House, and gubernatorial races as they are reported by the Associated Press.
On the front page of
Google News
, you'll find a Google Map gadget showing real-time popular and electoral vote counts. On the
Elections section page
, you can see more detailed results. At the top of the right column we have summaries of the presidential race, and the races for majority control in the Senate and House. Beneath the summaries you can select a state in the pull-down menu. For each state we display the breakdown in votes for the presidency, governor (where there is a race), and for each Senate and House seat that's being contested. You can also follow the presidential election, and see a summary of the popular and electoral votes by visiting
news.google.com
on your iPhone or Android-powered mobile phone.
For more Google election tools, be sure to check out our
2008 Elections page
. It features some useful Google Maps, including one which can give you the location of your polling place. So keep up with the results as they're reported, from wherever you are -- and be sure to add your vote to the tally!
