Key Time Points in the U.S. Presidential Election》Trump Harris "Battles in Seven Swing States", When Will the Balloting Be Released at the Soonest?

The US presidential election began voting on the 5th local time, with incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris representing the Democratic Party and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate, while former US President Donald Trump is representing the Republican Party and running with Ohio Senator J.D. Vance. According to Associated Press real-time election data, as of 10:50 am Taiwan time on the 6th, Trump is temporarily leading Harris with 188 electoral votes to 99. Trump has won 19 states, including Ohio, North Dakota, Arkansas, Kentucky, and Indiana, while Harris has won 11 states, including Delaware and Massachusetts. The key to the election outcome lies in the swing states. The seven swing states are Pennsylvania (19 votes), North Carolina (16 votes), Georgia (16 votes), Michigan (15 votes), Wisconsin (10 votes), Arizona (11 votes), and Nevada (6 votes). The voting results in these states will determine who wins the election. As the election results in the swing states are very close, it will affect the time it takes for the final results to be announced. Based on past voting records, Georgia and North Carolina may be the first to have preliminary results. If Trump gains an advantage in the southern swing states, Harris will have to rely on winning the three "blue wall" states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin to have a chance of winning.
