Hello Readers,
Did you hear?
The US is gearing up for elections!
America is now gearing up for elections as 5th November will be a crucial day for the country. Donald Trump, from the Republicans, and Kamala Harris, from the Democrats, will be fighting off to secure the Presidency and become the 47th President of the US! While many votes have already been cast, official voting begins on 5th November and results could arrive on the same day! With that being said: What do the two main candidates say?
Trump is in favour of Israel!
Former President Donald Trump has repeatedly spoken of introducing tariffs on imports and slashing taxes for companies that produce in the US. Moreover, he has a stance against reinstating abortion rights! In terms of foreign policy, Trump has vowed to strengthen ties with India, a fierce supporter of Israel, even spoke against Pro-Palestinian protests in the US, and wants all NATO members to meet their defense spending goals, failing which he would not help them!! What about Harris?
Harris supports abortion!
As VP, Kamala Harris has favored raising the minimum wage, supporting small businesses, and wants to build an ‘opportunity economy’ where everyone can succeed. As a Democrat, she seeks to reinstate abortion rights and make fertility/abortion procedures more readily accessible! For foreign policy, Harris is very vocal about being against Russia and says she is in support of Israel, but her sympathy towards Palestinians and skipping Netanyah’s address say otherwise. However, many issues currently cloud these elections! Like what?
Trump claims election fraud!
The Republican candidate Donald Trump claimed that there has been a voter fraud! According to the former US President, the investigations regarding questionable voter registration forms indicate an election fraud as some of his supporters claim voter suppression! Harris’ campaign has rejected these claims while stating that Trump was trying to sow doubt in US institutions and was ‘laying the groundwork to claim that the election was stolen from him’ later on! What’s the current consensus?
Polls indicate a tough battle!!
Primary polls from popular sources indicate that both candidates are stuck in a deadlock! Latest reports suggest that Trump could secure a record victory in six US States like Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Tennessee but was unable to secure a decisive lead. Both candidates are neck and neck as neither has breached the 50% mark but both are inching closer. One thing is for certain, the US will have its 47th President in the upcoming week: Who are you rooting for?
