Millions of Americans are heading to the polls after Kamala Harris and Donald Trump ended this year’s presidential race with a fierce battle for Pennsylvania on Monday (November 4).

One of the few constants in the campaign has been how close it has remained between the candidates.

The election is expected to be decided by razor-thin margins, and the results may not be known for days.

However, those who want to follow along in the UK as the results begin to trickle in have plenty of options.

Many news channels will be hosting special programmes tonight (November 5) and early into tomorrow morning (November 6), including BBC and ITV – let’s take a look at how you can watch along.
