Election Day
Today, Tuesday, Nov. 5, is election day. Voters have until 7 p.m. to vote in person or drop their early ballots in an dropbox or turn in their ballots at an election center.
The tabulation process for the General Election takes time. All elections results are preliminary and unofficial until they are officially canvased by the Board of Supervisors of Arizona’s 15 counties in mid-November.
Timeline on election day, Tuesday, Nov. 5
- 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. polling stations are open.
- 7 p.m. polls close. Vote center officials and volunteers take ballots to the county elections offices.
- 8 p.m. Counties post the first batch of results, which are early ballots exclusively. These are the ballots counted from start of tabulation on Monday, Oct. 21. These are generally not the ballots cast on election day, except in smaller counties.
- 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. election night: Election Day ballot tabulation. Depending on the county, ballots could be counted and posted by county officials every few minutes in large, urban counties like Maricopa, Pima and Pinal, or in groups every few hours in rural counties like Coconino and Yavapai.
Timeline on Wednesday, Nov. 6
- About noon Nov. 6: Final Election Day ballots from remote areas like the Havasupai Indian Reservation in the Grand Canyon and the Navajo Nation are counted. Any ballots requiring the duplication check process are counted.
Timeline through Sunday, Nov. 11
- Early ballots dropped off on Election Day and provisional or conditional ballots are counted through Sunday, Nov. 11.
- The cure deadline is Saturday, Nov. 10, so tabulation cannot be completed until Sunday, Nov. 11, at the earliest. Curing is the process of resolving any problems with a signature on the green affidavit envelope for early voting. For a ballot to be tabulated, county recorders must have a verified signature each election cycle.
There is a small window of time to cure signature issues. The deadline to cure a ballot packet is 5 calendar days post-Election Day for any Federal Election such as a Primary, General or March Presidential Preference Election or 3 calendar days post-Election Day for all other local elections. This schedule is subject to change based on the number of ballots received on Election Day.
