Why the election might not be decided tonight

A historic election that saw an incumbent president drop his campaign, a woman rise to the top of the Democratic ticket and multiple assassination attempts against the Republican candidate will come to an end on Nov. 5.

But the outcome may not be known on election night.

It took four days for the race to be projected for President Joe Biden in 2020 as mail-in voting expansions, and other changes made to help Americans participate during a global pandemic, delayed counting in several key states.

An especially tight race, as expected this year, can make it even more difficult to project a winner in the hours after polls close, experts told ABC News.

For more on the paths to victory and when we might know the winner, watch this story from Joe Torres.

Voting problems reported in Queens

The Board of Elections identified a problem happening at some election sites in Queens on Tuesday.

At P.S. 164 in Flushing, voters reported issues with scanning their ballots. We are told machines would spit the paper ballots right back out and voters were left, in some cases, handing in paper ballots.

The Board of Elections says an emergency bin was used. It is unclear how long exactly this went on, but the board says every vote will be counted.

The BOE issued a statement saying "technicians were immediately dispatched, and corrective measures were undertaken. In an abundance of caution, we had all 290 sites in Queens inspected."

Anthony Carlo has the latest from Flushing, Queens.

Voters have not been impacted beyond additional attempts to scan their ballot or have it placed in the emergency bin as is protocol, the BOE said.

At P.S. 36 in the St. Albans area of Queens, Eyewitness News found a steady line of voters late Tuesday morning but that line we are told was not moving as well earlier when the site first opened.

A poll worker tells us one of the computer tablets was improperly configured for early voting. A tech had to be sent out by the Board of Elections to fix the issue. But site workers say this caused a problem for about an hour and a half as they could not "service the voter."
