Why Delayed Election Results Are Normal in Swing States

TL;DR Summary
The presidential election results in key battleground states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin may take days to finalize due to delays in counting mail-in ballots, which cannot be processed until Election Day. This could lead to a prolonged wait for the final outcome, especially if the race is close between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Other states like Georgia and North Carolina have processes in place to report results more quickly, but Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are expected to be the slowest.
