What Time Do Polls Close Today? Voting Hours For The 2026 Midterm Elections

Voting hours vary by state on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3, but most polling places close between 7 pm and 9 pm local time. Opening times typically range from 6 am to 8 am. In Pennsylvania, polls are open from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. statewide. Polls close at 8 pm local time across all 67 counties. Election officials stress one rule that applies almost everywhere: if you are in line to vote when the polls close, stay in line, because you must be allowed to cast your ballot. Voters elsewhere should confirm exact times on their state or county election website, since hours can differ even within a state.
