Savannah Guthrie briefly stepped away from the Today studio halfway through Tuesday's show as she prepared for a very busy evening reporting on the 2024 Presidential Election.
The host left her co-stars Hoda Kotb and Craig Melvin in Studio 1A as she made her way across the street to NBC's Election Night Headquarters at 30 Rockefeller Centre Plaza.

The journalist gave viewers a tour of the studio, featuring a data wall which will show the latest exit polls, as well as NBC's political unit, where the behind-the-scenes team will crunch numbers and talk directly to the decision desk, which analyzes voter data. Check it out in the video below.
Savannah later returned to the Today studio, where she, Craig and Hoda kept viewers updated with the latest news on the election.
