- These are 2024 counts. 2024 was a presidential year, and 2026 timing can differ. Nothing on this page predicts when any 2026 race will be known.
- Percentages are of each unit’s final 2024 count, not of the votes cast in 2026. A county’s share is of that county’s own final count.
- This page shows no results and no live data. Call the Map does not run an election-night results page.

The biggest counties, and when each was in
| County | Of the state’s vote | By 9 PM | By 11 PM | By 1 AM | Past 90% by |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| St. Louis County | 17% | 19% | 89% | 99% | midnight |
| Jackson | 11% | 13% | 96% | 99% | 11 PM |
| St. Charles | 8% | none | 49% | 99% | midnight |
| Greene | 5% | none | 27% | 51% | 2:37 AM |
| Clay | 4% | none | 93% | 99% | 11 PM |
| Jefferson | 4% | none | 34% | 65% | not by 2:37 AM |
| St. Louis City | 4% | none | 82% | 99% | midnight |
| Boone | 3% | none | 50% | 99% | 1 AM |
Each percentage is of that county’s own final count, not of the state’s. “none” means the feed showed no votes yet; “not measured” means the feed did not carry the county’s count at that time, which is not the same as zero. A time after 2:37 AM is the first archived copy at that level; the archive has no copy between 2:37 AM and 2:37 PM on Nov. 6, so the count may have passed it earlier.
What comes late, and why
Medium pace. AP: the first results after poll close historically include early in-person and mail votes, which tended to favor Democrats, before Republicans take the lead as Election Day votes are tabulated. About 68% of the 2020 vote was reported by midnight ET.

Sources and method
- Counts
- The New York Times presidential county results feed (Associated Press data), President only, as the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine kept it. Copies used: 7:59 PM ET Nov. 5 to 2:37 AM ET Nov. 6. The archive has no capture of this feed between 2:37 AM and 2:37 PM ET on Nov 6 2024; a state still counting at 2:37 AM is not measured again until the afternoon (and only the 16 states with an 'after' point carry later captures).
- Final count
- NYT total_expected_vote per unit in the last archived capture of Nov 8 2024 (statewide 3,000,542), or the largest count seen where that was lower. It is the feed’s last archived value, not a certified canvass.
