Voters across America will go to the polls on Nov 5 to decide whether Donald Trump or Kamala Harris will become the next president.
On top of the presidential race, Americans will be electing Congressional candidates for seats in the House of Representatives and the US Senate.
Results from individual races will be announced throughout the night, with some states potentially having to wait several days for their counts to be confirmed.
For blow by blow coverage of all the results as they come in, here are the places you can watch the US election, both on TV and online.
How can I watch on TV?
All of the major US news networks will be covering election night, with kicking off their broadcasts from late in the afternoon eastern time.
Fox News will commence its election night coverage from 6pm ET led by anchors Martha MacCallum and Bret Baier, who recently grilled Kamala Harris.
The channel will be using an interactive board to deliver county-by-county updates as results come in throughout the night.
CNN is also due to launch its coverage from 6pm ET, with host John King using the network’s Magic Wall to guide viewers through the results as they flood in.
King was nominated for a prestigious RTS television journalism award in the UK for his work as CNN’s result analyst last election.
NBC is broadcasting 24 hours of live coverage on their local NBC stations for the first beginning at 5 pm ET on Election Day. The network has more than 100 journalists positioned across the country to provide the latest updates from individual races.
NBC’s coverage from 2am-6am on Wednesday will be made available to local stations across the US.
ABC News will begin its election night broadcast from 7pm ET, when polls close in several states, and will continue through until the following day. The coverage will be hosted by anchors David Muir and Linsey Davis.

CNN has made its Magic Wall available on the CNN app so that election watchers can follow live results across more than 500 congressional, gubernatorial and presidential races.
Amazon is making its first foray into live news with an election night special hosted by former NBC anchor Brian Williams.
Kicking off at 5pm, Amazon has emphasised the Prime Video coverage will be a “non-partisan presentation” inviting guests from across the political spectrum, including James Carville, the Clinton campaign expert, and Mike Murphy, the veteran GOP strategist.
