24 hours from now, I hope we know who our new President will be.
24 hours from now, it will be about 1:30 a.m. EST.

Let's keep our fingers crossed!
If it is not close, hopefully we will know!

I agree. The country can't go through another election with days of not knowing the result.

Ah, MzMia, the polls don't close in Hawaii for another 6 hours after they close in states in the EST zone, LOL.

Can't we wait till later in the day, at least?

Maybe so, BUT if the lead is great enough,
Hawaii won't matter!!!!!!!!

Also, Hawaii is a solid blue state "winks"

LOL at 'Hawaii won't matter'.

Now is that nice? Hawaiians are Americans too, LOL.

Seriously, absentee ballots got really, really popular here in Ohio this election. I guess lots of people didn't want to stand on line a long time if they didn't have to. I'd be surprised if we can tell for sure what the result is till the electoral college actually votes.

We've waited since 1776. A few more days aren't gonna hurt.

The only president worth voting for was George Washington. I think his farewell speach was one of the greatest speachs ever written. How many presidents today would turn down a chance to be King. LOL Clinton, Bush?

I just hope that the poll workers have been counting the mail-in and early voting ballots all along. There are so many this election that the result could hinge on them, and I'd like to know the results before I go to bed.

Thanks Steven, ugh.
I am heading out to vote in a few minutes.
We probably won't "officially" know who the winner is
for at least a week.

Funny, MzMia. I'd resigned myself to staying up late while the returns came in. The results were in at 8:30 PM MST. I got plenty of sleep that night!
