US election: 3 days left – What polls say, what Harris and Trump are up to
Al Jazeera
Harris and Trump are locked in a dead heat, battling for control of Midwestern swing states.
On Friday, the US presidential candidates campaigned in the key Midwestern swing states of Michigan and Wisconsin, seeking to lure voters.
At rallies, Vice President Kamala Harris slammed former President Donald Trump for his remarks earlier this week suggesting that former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney, a staunch critic of Trump, should have “guns trained on her”. Trump has previously suggested that Cheney should face military tribunals.
Meanwhile, in his rallies, Trump insisted that the “guns” comment was a legitimate criticism of Cheney’s hawkish foreign policy stance: If she promoted wars, she should have to fight in them herself.
Nationally, FiveThirtyEight’s poll tracker shows Harris ahead by 1.3 points, as she has been for the past week, and roughly where she and Trump have been for the past few days – but at a much closer margin than the 2.8 percentage points she was ahead by exactly a month ago.
In critical swing states, which could determine the election outcome, the competition is even tighter.
