ITV has today announced its initial line-up for the overnight coverage of the upcoming US presidential election.

Tom Bradby will once again lead the broadcast live from Washington DC, presenting Harris V Trump: The Results from 10.45pm on ITV1 and ITVX. He will be joined by Emmy and BAFTA award-winning correspondent Robert Moore, covering his sixth US presidential election.

Anushka Asthana, ITV News' Deputy Political Editor, will take charge of the election results as they come in, using the battleboard to help viewers understand the unfolding story. The broadcast will also feature live crosses to CNN every hour to ensure the latest results are available as soon as they are announced.

The programme will host a roster of experts and insiders to provide comprehensive analysis and insight. Former Trump spokeswoman Heather Nauert and former Obama/Biden advisor Adam Hodge will join the team, alongside election analyst Jessica Taylor from the Cook Political Report.

Former Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin has also been confirmed as a guest across both ITV News and Good Morning Britain.

International Editor Emma Murphy will be tracking the Harris campaign, while US correspondent Dan Rivers will follow the Trump campaign's movements. Julie Etchingham will be reporting live from California, Harris' home state, examining the Vice President’s record and speaking to those who know her best.

Rohit Kachroo, ITV News' Global Security Editor, together with correspondents Rachel Younger and Sejal Karia, will provide in-depth coverage from crucial swing states, where the election may ultimately be decided.

ITV News will also offer comprehensive coverage of the US election across ITVX and its digital platforms, with a particular focus on the Gen Z vote in America, explored through a series of explainers. Additionally, a variety of video explainers will break down key elements of the election, including the Electoral College, Battleground States, Congress, and the Senate.

ITVX will once again feature Talking Politics US, the special election editions of ITV News's politics podcast, with episodes recorded live from Washington DC. Viewers will also have access to the Battleground America series, providing in-depth analysis of the most hotly contested areas of the race. To ensure audiences stay up to date, an overnight web and social media operation will capture key election moments as they happen, with curated highlights available on ITVX.

At 6am, ITV News will hand over to RTS Presenter of the Year Susanna Reid and Ed Balls live from Washington DC, for Good Morning Britain: America Decides, for a full election results special with correspondents around the US including RTS award-winning North America Correspondent Noel Phillips and Chief Correspondent Richard Gaisford.

Guests on the programme will include Stormy Daniels, the woman at the centre of the legal case that made Trump a convicted felon, former BBC North America Editor and host of The News Agents podcast Jon Sopel, as well as Donald Trump’s nephew Fred Trump III and his long-time friend and supporter, Mike Lindell.  US army veteran and Nevada State Senator Pat Spearman and legendary pollster Frank Luntz will also appear and Sarah Palin will stay with ITV as anticipation builds into the morning.

GMB’s digital team will take viewers behind the scenes as Susanna and Ed head stateside with exclusive online content, election explainers and up to the minute information as the results roll in.

Good Morning Britain will also be live from Washington DC on November 7th.
