Wiki the Vote - Poll Closing Times [1]
Submitted by Conor Kenny [2] on
We'll be bringing you continuing coverage of the 2008 congressional elections at Congresspedia today and during the rest of the week. As part of our Wiki the Vote [3] project, we've compiled a list of poll-closing times, for those of you keeping score at home. You can click on any state below to be taken to a portal page listing all of the candidates, and other resources that will help you track the election as results are reported.
Note: Several states listed below have polls closing at different times (since parts of the state are in different time zones). These states are Alaska, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Oregon, New Hampshire, North Dakota, South Dakota and Texas. See Swing State Project's handy chart [4] for more information.
We're going by the latest closing time in each state. All times Eastern.
