The United States will head to the polls tomorrow to choose its 47th President in a highly competitive race between Republican nominee Donald Trump and Democratic leader Kamala Harris. This election is predicted to be one of the closest in recent history, with both candidates focusing heavily on securing key swing states. To secure the presidency, either candidate must reach the threshold of 270 electoral college votes.
Recent opinion polls suggest the election outcome hinges on seven pivotal battleground states: Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia. Former President Trump, campaigning in Kinston, North Carolina, intensified his criticism of Harris, stating she lacks vision, ideas, and solutions, instead focusing solely on blaming him for the nation’s issues.
Meanwhile, Democratic candidate Harris addressed supporters at a rally in Michigan, pledging to end the conflict in Gaza, secure the safe return of hostages, and ensure Israel’s security while respecting Palestinian rights to dignity and self-determination. She also emphasized a renewed focus on leadership, promising to prioritize healthcare access and to work toward making healthcare a fundamental right for all Americans.
