Curious about how Election Day might affect mail services, financial institutions, the stock market, and other businesses? You’re not alone.

WASHINGTON — As Election Day 2025 unfolds on Tuesday, November 4, with several high-stakes races across the nation, many are wondering about its potential impact on daily operations. Although not a federal holiday, this day might still raise questions about changes to mail delivery, banking hours, stock market activities, and other business operations.

Here’s a quick guide to what you can expect to be open and closed on Election Day 2025, and how it might influence your plans this Tuesday.

Since Election Day is not considered a federal holiday, most banks are expected to operate as usual.

Are banks open on Election Day?

Financial institutions like Wells Fargo, Bank of America, TD Bank, and Regions Bank are anticipated to maintain their regular hours on Tuesday without any disruption.

Additionally, banking services such as ATMs and online platforms should function normally on Election Day and throughout the holiday season. However, it’s always a good idea to confirm with your local branch to be certain.

Banking services, such as ATMs and online banking, should also remain normal on Election Day and during the holiday season. Be sure to check with your specific location, though.

Is the post office open on Election Day? Will there be mail delivery on Tuesday?

Yes, the post office will be open and mail will be delivered as usual on Election Day. The government shutdown, which on Tuesday matches the record for the longest shutdown in history, also has no impact on whether mail is delivered. 

However, looking ahead to next week, the U.S. Postal Service will be closed on Tuesday, Nov. 11, to observe Veterans Day. 

Is the stock market open on Election Day?

Are restaurants and grocery stores open?

Yes, there are no major retailers that have announced plans to close for Election Day.
