Get Election Results on Patch for Local, State and National Races

We'll update results and report reactions throughout the evening in county, state and national contests. Reporters staked out all over will give you the latest information and pictures from candidates' receptions.

This could be one of the most exciting elections in your lifetime. At Patch we’re cranking into high gear to bring you timely results on Tuesday night in races from the presidency, to the 9th and 10th Congressional districts, to the 55th Illinois House District, the 28th Illinois Senate District and more.

We'll start updating election returns after 7:15 p.m. and continue until a winner is called. We'll have reporters at Chicago's McCormick Place to cover the Obama election returns event, as well as at candidates' election night watch parties in Des Plaines, Morton Grove, Park Ridge, Schaumburg and other towns.
