Where the numbers come from

Unofficial counts as each state's election office publishes them, checked every few minutes. PoliData does not call races: the candidate ahead is not the winner until the state certifies its count.

Not updating right now: Colorado, Iowa, South Carolina, West Virginia. Their last count stays on this page until the state’s site answers again.
