When does the 2024 Iowa caucus end, and when did results for previous election years come in?
Washington — The Iowa caucuses are set to get underway Monday evening, as the GOP presidential hopefuls set their sights on the Hawkeye State and the possibility of a first-in-the-nation boost to kick off the primary season. But exactly when a victor will emerge remains unclear.
What time does the 2024 Iowa caucus end?
The caucuses are set to begin at 7 p.m. CT and will likely conclude within an hour, when vote counting will commence. But timing differences are expected between the more than 1,600 precincts throughout the state that vary in size.
What time have results for past Iowa caucuses come in?
The timing of the results can vary greatly.
In 2020, technical difficulties prevented full votes from becoming available in the Democratic caucuses for multiple days. In 2016, the caucuses were called for Republicans before midnight, while they were called for Democrats around midday the next day. And in 2012, while the Republican race was initially called early the next morning, days later it was officially called for a different candidate.
Do we know when 2024 results will come in?
For smaller precincts, the results may be available within an hour, according to The Des Moines Register, while results in larger precincts are expected to be tallied for the next few hours.

NEW YORK — Former New York Gov. David Paterson and his stepson were attacked in New York City on Friday night, authorities said.
The incident occurred just before 9 p.m. on Second Avenue near East 96th Street on the Upper East Side, according to the New York City Police Department.
Police said officers were sent to the scene after an assault was reported. When officers arrived, police say they found a 20-year-old man suffering from facial injuries and a 70-year-old man who had head pain. Both victims were taken to a local hospital in stable condition.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the former governor said the two were attacked while “taking a walk around the block near their home by some individuals that had a previous interaction with his stepson.”
The spokesperson said that they were injured “but were able to fight off their attackers.”
Both were taken to Cornell Hospital “as a precaution,” he added.
Police said no arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.
The 70-year-old Paterson, a Democrat, served as governor from 2008 to 2010, stepping into the post after the resignation of Eliot Spitzer following his prostitution scandal. He made history at the time as the state’s first-ever Black and legally blind governor.
