Nearly 25 million American cast early votes as Harris and Trump target key states
With two weeks to go until the U.S. presidential election, nearly 25 million Americans have cast their early votes.
According to an election monitoring center at the University of Florida, these votes were submitted either in person or by mail.
Former President Barack Obama also joined the early voting trend, announcing via a video message on social media that he voted by mail. His involvement underscores the importance of participation in this election cycle.
Reuters reported that early voting has seen unprecedented turnout in several key states, including swing states like North Carolina and Georgia. This early activity suggests a heightened interest in the upcoming election.
Republican nominee Donald Trump described the turnout at a rally in Zebulon, Georgia, as remarkable, stating that the votes in every state are at unprecedented levels. He expressed optimism about their campaign’s chances, emphasizing the need to “fix our country.”
As the election date approaches, both nominees are concentrating their efforts on securing votes in crucial swing states. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris is actively working to differentiate her potential administration from that of President Joe Biden, stating that her presidency would not simply continue his policies.
The tight competition between the two presidential nominees is evident as they navigate early voting dynamics and engage voters in critical states.
The high turnout reflects the electorate’s urgency and the significance of this election, indicating that every vote will count in determining the next leader of the country.
