It's a nail-biting countdown as Trump and Harris hit the campaign trail hard! What do you need to know before election day?
As the clock ticks down to the US presidential election on November 5th, candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are making their final moves in a race that’s tighter than a pair of painted-on jeans! With the stakes higher than a pint at Temple Bar on St. Patrick's Day, both candidates are pouring their heart and soul into their last-day campaigns, especially in key battleground states like Pennsylvania, which could very well decide the election. Harris is set to make a splash all day in Pennsylvania, while Trump is hopping around three states like a kid on a sugar rush, both trying to shore up the votes they desperately need for a chance at the White House.
Polls are closing early in states like Georgia and stretching late into the night in Hawaii and Alaska, but analysts are cautioning that even if the polls close, the results might take longer than expected to come in. With 78 million Americans having already cast their votes early, it’s clear this election is rocking like a bagpipe band at a wedding! Voters are keen to know if the specter of Trump or the dynamic vice president Harris will prevail once the dust settles.
Polls are showing an unbelievable photo finish between Harris and Trump, which means every single vote counts. Harris is coming in hot with a momentum that could form a ‘blue wall’ on election night, leading to a possible early declaration by around 4 am on the outcome. On the other hand, the Trump rally effect might spell out yet another glorious comeback for the former president. Either way, grab your popcorn, folks! It’s bound to be more entertaining than a late-night talk show.
As election day looms, targets are set, strategies are locked in, and both camps are on the edges of their seats, watching every swing state as if it were the final lap of the Dublin Marathon. For the curious souls, remember that in order to win the presidency, a candidates must secure a whopping 270 out of 538 electoral votes—a number that may seem fantastical until that one vote changes everything. And if you think the US electoral system is intense, just wait till you see the amount of ‘free advice’ floating around social media as people prepare to take to their keyboards post-election—expect tweets, memes, and a whole lot of opinions!
Last day of campaigning for Democratic and Republican presidential candidates, polls indicate race couldn't be tighter.
Georgia will be among the first key states to close at 7pm ET, while Hawaii and Alaska will collect ballots until 12am ET.
If polls are correct, it could take days to decide the next president, but a 'blue wall' surge could make the result obvious by 4am.
