Tue Nov 05 23:10:00 UTC 2024: ## Dixville Notch Kicks Off US Election With Tie Between Trump and Harris
**DIXVILLE NOTCH, NEW HAMPSHIRE** – The first votes in the 2024 US Presidential election were cast and counted just hours after polls opened, with the small town of Dixville Notch reporting a tie between Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and Republican incumbent Donald Trump.
The tiny New Hampshire town, located on the US-Canada border, is known for its tradition of holding midnight voting. With only six registered voters, all residents cast their ballots shortly after midnight, with the results announced within 15 minutes. While the 2020 election saw Dixville Notch lean towards the Democratic candidate, Joe Biden, this year’s results offer an early glimpse into the tight race between Trump and Harris.
Despite the early results, the majority of US polls will not open until Tuesday morning, with times varying by state. The final results of the election are expected to take several days, as votes are counted and verified across the country.
