Harris and Trump in a duel: Who will win the crucial swing states?
In the hot phase of the US presidential election campaign, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are putting everything on one card. Both politicians are mobilizing their supporters in the crucial swing states of Nevada and Arizona. The fate of the election on November 5th, where 270 voters are needed, could be decided here. Arizona has eleven votes and Nevada six, making these states a key field in the bitter competition between the Democratic vice president and the Republican former president.
Trump, who caused a stir with a shocking statement, declared that he would protect women “whether they like it or not.” Harris countered sharply, accusing him of dividing Americans and disrespecting women. Meanwhile, Trump vowed to "bring back the American dream" and opposed migrants, who he said constituted an "invasion." But that's not all: Trump also flashed a violent fantasy about his critic Liz Cheney, which caused outrage at a campaign rally in Arizona.
Prominent support for Harris
Amid these heated arguments, prominent supporters are rallying behind Kamala Harris. Basketball star LeBron James and stars of the “Avengers” films such as Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson are calling for the vote. “Every vote counts,” emphasized Ruffalo and appealed to voters to vote for Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz. Pressure is mounting on Trump as he faces CBS News with a lawsuit over manipulation of an interview with Harris, seen as a political move.
Tensions reach a fever pitch when a video of an alleged migrant from Haiti claiming to have voted multiple times in Georgia goes viral. The responsible election official, Brad Raffensperger, describes this as targeted misinformation. Trump's running mate J.D. Vance also stirs controversy with misogynistic comments and claims that young people are changing their gender to be accepted into elite universities. Meanwhile, Trump is fueling his supporters' fears that a possible election victory can only be denied him through fraud, and is recalling his unfounded allegations from the 2020 election.
