When will the final result of the President race be official?

Expected between polls close and 2024-12-12T05:59:59Z (UTC), confidence announced. Each state certifies its presidential result on its own deadline and sends a certificate of ascertainment of the appointment of electors to the Archivist. Under 3 U.S.C. § 5(a)(1), as amended by the Electoral Count Reform Act of 2022, the governor must issue it "not later than the date that is 6 days before the time fixed for the meeting of the electors"; the electors met on Tuesday 17 Dec 2024 (3 U.S.C. § 7: the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December), so every state had to certify by Wednesday 11 Dec 2024; the window closes at the end of that day, local time. This state's own certification date is not recorded yet.
