More than 75 million Americans have voted early in the US presidential election, according to data from the University of Florida"s Election Lab tracker released late Saturday. The count shows 75,093,872 votes cast either by mail or in-person at polling stations, with a majority opting for in-person voting over mail ballots this election cycle. With approximately 168 million registered voters in the US, this turnout marks a significant portion of the electorate just days before Election Day. Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump held last-minute rallies across southern swing states. Harris addressed supporters in Atlanta, Georgia, and Charlotte, North Carolina, while Trump made campaign stops in Gastonia and Greensboro, North Carolina, as well as Salem, Virginia. At her rally in Georgia, Harris criticized Trump for being “obsessed with revenge” and “unchecked power,” contrasting it with her own focus on policies to improve lives. “This is not someone who is thinking about how to make your life better,” she said, adding that Trump is “consumed with grievance.” Trump, meanwhile, positioned himself as the candidate to restore American prosperity, stating in Gastonia, “Kamala broke it, I will fix it, and America will be rich again.” As Election Day approaches, polling suggests Harris and Trump are locked in a tight race, particularly in seven crucial battleground states that could determine the outcome. These states are critical as the US elects its president through the Electoral College system, where a candidate must secure 270 of 538 Electoral College votes to win. Electors are generally awarded based on the popular vote in each state, emphasizing the importance of each battleground state’s outcome. — Agencies
