November 3rd
Polling Place
These are ballots cast in-person at polling places on November 3rd, encrypted, and securely transmitted from the polling place to the Board of Elections when polls close. These results will be available on the Board of Elections website on November 3rd beginning at 8:20 p.m. Results link: https://electionresults.ri.gov/results/public/rhodeisland/elections/2026StatewideGeneralElection

Early Voting
These results will be transmitted by local Boards of Canvassers on November 3rd and will be available on the Board of Elections website beginning at 8:20 p.m.

Mail Ballots
While the Board expects to count most mail ballots by November 3rd, ballots placed in authorized drop boxes at city/town halls or in polling places must still be tabulated. These ballots are sealed in envelopes and held in secure and sealed containers by the local Board of Canvassers and delivered to the Board of Elections on November 4th. Partial mail ballot results will be available on the Board of Elections website after 9:00 p.m. but will not include these drop box ballots.

November 4th - 5th
Remaining drop box ballots and any still uncounted mail ballots will be added to the Mail Ballots totals and made available on our website. Any precincts that failed to transmit their results on November 3rd due to any technical issues will be added to the general election results and made available on the Board of Elections website.

November 5th - 7th
Provisional ballot results will be added to Polling Place Results and will be made available on the Board of Elections website.

November 5th - November 10th
Military/overseas ballots and deficient mail ballots cured by voters and due to the Board of Elections by November 5th – 10th will be added to Mail Ballots Results and will be made available on the Board of Elections website prior to final general election results certification.

NOTE: All results are considered unofficial until certified by the Board of Elections.
