CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: As election day nears, the US presidential campaign is heating up, with Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican candidate Donald Trump ramping up their efforts to garner maximum votes. In the final stretch, both candidates will concentrate their efforts on the crucial seven swing states, where the outcome is far from certain and every vote counts.

The campaigns ahead are likely to focus their messages on issues including immigration, the economy, and abortion amid the heated debates on culture, democracy and character.

The candidates are set for their first debate in one week. Also, the Keystone State of Pennsylvania is set to begin its in-person absentee voting in two weeks and by the end of the month, early voting will be underway in at least four states.

In just 63 days, the final votes will be cast to decide which one of them will lead.

The presidential election has taken a dramatic turn with President Joe Biden’s exit, leaving Harris and Trump in a fierce battle for the White House. According to the latest national polls, the two candidate are locked in a tight, neck-and-neck contest, setting the stage for a nail-biting finish. Former US President Trump rejects any indicators that suggest Harris is ahead, as shown by some poll analysis.

Trump makes it a point to reiterate at all possible platforms that Harris coming to power would be America’s doom.
