Google and YouTube can help keep you informed on Election Day

Official Google Blog
It’s Election Day Eve, the day before before millions of people across the U.S. will head to the polls and cast votes for their elected officials. But before you get to the ballot box -- and head out with that sticker! -- check Google to get the information on where to vote and election results.
Starting when the polls close on Election Day, you will be able to find U.S. election results integrated right into your Google searches in over 30 languages around the world. You’ll also be able to see detailed updates and results of the Presidential, Senatorial, Congressional, Gubernatorial races as well as state-level referenda and ballot propositions.
For the past several months, Google has helped people find information about the democratic process: our search results have helped voters
register
and explained the voting process with information on
how to vote
,
who’s on their ballot
, and how to
find their local polling place
in both English and Spanish. Since releasing these in-depth search results, we've seen millions of people engage with these tools on Google -- there's even been a startling 233% increase in traffic for "how to vote" compared with 2012. In addition to “how to vote,” Americans are actively searching for “where to vote” -- particularly in battleground states, as depicted in these county-by-county breakdowns:
Over the past few weeks viewers spent over 20 million hours watching - and rewatching - the presidential debate live streams on YouTube. Tomorrow, YouTube will be live streaming election results coverage from more news organizations than ever before. Starting at 7 p.m. ET on Tuesday, November 8, tune in to live coverage from
NBC
,
PBS
,
MTV
,
Bloomberg
,
Telemundo
and
The Young Turks
to keep up with all of the action as it happens.
Complex News
will also be delivering live coverage during a special election event from YouTube Space NY. And to close out YouTube’s
#voteIRL
campaign, creators and fans have been posting their
#voteIRL selfie
to mark that they’re going to vote. And tune in to some special voting reminder PSAs starring
POTUS
and some familiar-looking
furry friends
.
Whether you voted early, plan to head to the polls tomorrow, host an Election Night watch party, or live stream the victory speech from America’s new President-Elect, we’re here to help. From the ballot box to tomorrow’s late-night returns, we hope Google’s tools help guide you through Election Day in a simple, clear and informative way.
And one last thing: don’t forget to
vote
. It matters.
