The elections of 1800 and 1876 took some time to get the results. In 1800 it was decided 3.5 months later by the House of Representatives. In 1876 it was decided nearly 4 months later by an Electoral Commission.

> In which US elections were the results not known the same day?

> Several U.S. elections have had results that were not known on the same day as the election:

> - **2020 Election**: Joe Biden was not declared the winner until November 7, 2020, four days after Election Day, due to delays in counting ballots in key states like Pennsylvania and Nevada[1].

> - **2000 Election**: The results were delayed until December 12, 2000, following a contentious recount in Florida that culminated in a Supreme Court decision[1][4].

> - **1876 Election**: The outcome was not resolved until March 2, 1877, due to disputes over electoral votes from several states[2][4].

> - **1800 Election**: Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr tied with 73 electoral votes each, leading to a contingent election in the House of Representatives that concluded on February 17, 1801[5].
