With just a day to go before Election Day, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump concentrated on securing votes in battleground states on Sunday. Harris rallied supporters in Michigan, while Trump crisscrossed Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia in the final push to shore up support.
Harris spoke to a crowd in East Lansing, pledging to “move beyond a decade of fear-driven politics” and to usher in a future-focused approach. She emphasized her commitment to protecting reproductive rights and told supporters, “We are not going back.” At another event in Detroit, however, Harris avoided commenting on California’s controversial Prop 36, which proposes stricter penalties for repeat shoplifting offenses, a stance that may prompt criticism from both moderates and progressive activists.
Trump expressed confidence in a victory at his rally in Kinston, North Carolina, where he urged supporters to turn out in force. He also criticized the Biden administration’s response to Hurricane Helene, which recently caused devastation in North Carolina, calling it “a disgrace and a betrayal.” He further pledged to impose tariffs on countries he claims have exploited the U.S.
In Lititz, Pennsylvania, Trump returned to claims of voter fraud, suggesting that thousands of ballots in the state showed identical handwriting, despite providing no evidence. His campaign has already filed legal challenges in Georgia over claims of irregular voting practices.
According to poll tracker FiveThirtyEight, Harris holds a slim lead at 48%, with Trump close behind at 47%. Swing states like Arizona, Georgia, and Wisconsin are set to play a critical role in determining the election outcome, with both candidates making last-minute efforts to sway undecided voters.
