How to follow U.S. election day coverage on CBC
[ad_1]
This election day in the United States is going to be unlike any in recent memory.
For starters, it is being held during a global pandemic. On top of that, more than 91 million voters have already cast their ballots ahead of Nov. 3, breaking all previous advanced-voting records.
CBC News will have full results of the election online, on radio and on television, along with analysis to dissect what it all means, as American voters decide whether to give Donald Trump four more years or choose his Democratic rival, Joe Biden.
CBC journalists are in several key locations in the U.S. to also help make sense of what could be a fast-changing story Tuesday night.
Here’s how you can tune in.
