Inclusion of Robert Hur's Investigation.

If we are going to mention Jack Smith's investigation I believe it would also be important to mention Hur's investigation.

Hur's report and subsequent testimony to congress was widely reported and contributed to concerns over Biden age.

Thus I believe excluding it from this article would be a mistake. BrendonJH (talk) 20:40, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would be okay with including the Hur investigation. It has relevance to the election, after all. A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 22:35, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In that case maybe someone could add it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrendonJH (talk • contribs) 21:17, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I will add it now. Smobes (talk) 20:11, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Harris concedes

Shouldn't the date and time of Harris' concession speech be included? As well as when the major news outlets called the winner? Or when Trump claimed the win? 2003:C6:3715:2F9A:1C79:A165:31D5:4306 (talk) 21:52, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

November 5 and 6 entries are too granular

We don't need minute by minute updates. David O. Johnson (talk) 04:40, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kamala Harris Concession Call

I don't know the exact time, but Kamala Harris's concession call to Trump should be included in the timeline, sometime between Trump surpassing 270 electoral votes at 5:34am and her speech at Howard University at 4:20pm. I'm not sure if she called before or after President Biden called Trump, but I would think before. Emotionally it makes sense for Harris to hold out hope longer than Biden, but optically it would undermine her. Of course that doesn't mean it didn't happen. I couldn't find the timing in my online search, so if someone else knows or can find it, please add it accordingly. Thank you. 66.91.36.8 (talk) 16:47, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What do the time mean?

What time zone is it using? I see times like 00:07 AM and 4:20 PM are we using the 24 hour clock or the 12 hour AM/PM clock? Master106 (talk) 21:01, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
