As America votes today, former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are each vying for at least 270 electoral votes. Key battleground states, including Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania, are crucial for their paths to victory. Polls have opened nationwide, with a tie in Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, where both candidates received three votes.
In the final hours of their campaigns, Harris concluded her 107-day push in Pennsylvania, while Trump held an event in Michigan, marking a familiar venue from his previous campaigns.
President Joe Biden, though not on the ballot, is closely watching the results from the White House with senior staff, recognizing the implications for his legacy. The president has maintained a low profile in the lead-up to the election, focusing on supporting Harris, whom he endorsed after dropping out of the race. A win for Harris could solidify Biden's legacy, while a loss may spark discussions about whether he lingered in the race too long and hindered Democratic prospects. Biden has expressed concerns about the potential return of Trump and the impact on his administration's achievements.
