WASHINGTON, Nov 4: The United States is set to hold its presidential election on November 5, with voters choosing the nation’s 47th President in a tightly contested race between Republican nominee Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. This election is expected to be one of the closest in recent history, as both candidates work diligently to sway voters, especially in key swing states.
To win, a candidate must secure at least 270 electoral college votes. Current polls indicate that the results in seven crucial battleground states—Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia—will significantly influence the election outcome.
Trump, the former President, recently held a rally in Kinston, North Carolina, where he criticized Harris for lacking vision and solutions, claiming her campaign focuses mainly on blaming him. Meanwhile, Harris, at a rally in Michigan, committed to addressing the ongoing Gaza conflict, advocating for the safe return of hostages, and ensuring Israel’s security while promoting the rights and dignity of the Palestinian people.
She also emphasized the necessity for a new generation of leadership, vowing to champion healthcare as a fundamental right for all Americans, rather than a privilege. As both candidates make their final pitches to the electorate, the nation anticipates the results of this pivotal election.
