The U.S. presidential election has taken an unprecedented turn. President Joe Biden announced he is no longer running for re-election. While the nomination of Vice President Kamala Harris has energized the Democratic party, former President Donald Trump’s survival of an assassination attempt has sparked unity within the Republican party. Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are hitting the campaign trail in the key battleground states, where they believe they have the best chances of winning. However, there’s no clear frontrunner in the race. Vice President Kamala Harris has the narrow edge over former President Donald Trump in California, while Trump leads Harris in Arizona.
Moreover, many surveys show the race remains tight, with neither candidate enjoying dominant support. 47% of likely voters are backing Donald Trump, while 45% support Kamala Harris. The election is scheduled to take place on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November. As the countdown continues, the presidential election progresses in high gear. 40% of registered voters are expected to cast their vote before election day, and early voting, including by-mail voting, is already underway.
