The final presidential election results are not made until the vote of the Electoral College in December.
However, each state's preliminary totals are shown in the media following the end of voting in each state. By late evening on election day, the result is usually clear, and by tradition includes a concession call (from the losing candidate to the winning candidate). In some cases, this is after midnight Eastern Time.
Because voters go to the polls according to local time, voters in Hawaii (and rarely, in Pacific coast states) may become aware of the likely result before the close of voting in their state.
They results are usually available the night of the election after enough polls have closed to know the result. Or occasionally the result is announced when the Supreme Court decides who they want to win.

When Americans vote for a presidential candidate they are not actually casting a vote for that person but for a slate of electors pledged to vote for that candidate in a meeting to be held later. These electors are the people who officially elect the president and vice president.
Each state has its own mechanism for certifying the popular vote for the slate of electors. After the vote is certified by the state, the winning group of electors meets to officially cast their votes. These meeting of the Electoral College's electors are usually held sometime in November or December following the election. Each state's Electoral College meeting then sends their results to the United States Senate in Washington, DC for tabulation.
The President of the United States Senate, then calls a meeting of the entire Congress to tabulate and officially certify the results. This happens in early January, after the new session of Congress begins but before the January 20th inauguration day.
