About this count
Each midnight takes one off the 74. Today is left out and January 1 itself is counted, so on Thursday, December 31 the page will show 1 day to go. US clocks go back on Sunday, November 1 along the way, which changes the hours but not the number of days.
In Excel or Google Sheets, =DATE(2027,1,1)-TODAY() gives the same 74 today; add 1 to count today as well.
This count to January 1, 2027 was worked out on Monday, October 19, 2026 (US Eastern time), and your browser recounts it from your own date when the page opens.
