Kentucky and Indiana close their polls first as election night kicks off
Polls have closed in Kentucky and Indiana, the first states to wrap voting on election night, according to The Associated Press. No results are in yet — the count is just getting started, and AP is running live coverage as returns come in.
The first polls of election night are officially in the books. Voting closed in Kentucky and Indiana, marking the earliest shutdowns of the night, according to The Associated Press, which is running live coverage of the results as they roll in.
Kentucky and Indiana have long occupied the front of the election-night calendar, so the earliest returns of the evening start flowing from those two states before anywhere else switches off its voting machines.
There are no results yet — just closed doors. Ballots cast Tuesday are now being counted, and the numbers will land over the coming hours as precincts report in.
AP is carrying the night live, tracking races as they're called. For anyone watching the board, this is the starting gun: the map is about to start filling in.
