Polls close at 9 p.m. In recent elections, the state and county boards of elections began reporting vote count information about 15 minutes after the polls closed. It’s possible that we will not know all of the results on Feb. 3: While there are only four races on ballots,\u00a0it may take several hours to count all the votes, and even longer to collect mailed ballots. All results are unofficial until they’ve been certified.<\/p>\n

Methodology<\/p>\n

The Associated Press gathers vote totals<\/a> from state and county boards of elections. All results are unofficial until they’ve been certified.<\/p>\n

The Times Union will only declare a winner when no scenario would allow the trailing candidates to close the gap. If a race has not been called, we will continue to cover any newsworthy developments, such as candidate concessions or declarations of victory, and will make clear that we have not declared a winner and explain why.<\/p>\n

In New York, an automatic recount is triggered in races with more than 1 million votes if the margin of victory is fewer than 5,000 votes. For smaller races, the automatic recount is triggered if the margin of victory is either 0.5% or less, or within 20 votes.<\/p>\n
