    Let \(Q\) be a collection of generalized quantifiers. The author gives a convenient characterization for the cases where the logic \(L^\omega_{\infty\omega}(Q)\) has almost sure quantifier elimination [in the sense of \textit{Yu. V. Glebskij}, \textit{D. I. Kogan}, \textit{M. I. Liogon'kij} and \textit{V. A. Talanov}, Kibernetika 1969, No. 2, 17-27 (1969; Zbl 0209.30803) and \textit{R. Fagin}, J. Symb. Log. 41, 50-58 (1976; Zbl 0341.02044)]. The results provide a method to prove zero-one and convergence laws for these logics. The paper contains many extensions of known zero-one laws.
