US Election: 5 Days Away, Harris and Trump in Tight Race

With just five days until Election Day, over 60 million Americans have already voted early. A recent CBS News poll shows a tied race in Pennsylvania, the largest electoral vote prize among battleground states, with Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump in a dead heat. 

Harris made her closing argument during a speech on the Ellipse, claiming her campaign attracted a crowd of 75,000. Meanwhile, President Biden sparked controversy during a call with Voto Latino, stating, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” which he later clarified was aimed at comedian Josh Hinchcliffe, not Trump supporters.

In response, Trump addressed Hinchcliffe’s comments, saying, “It’s nobody’s fault, but somebody said some bad things.”

Polling data reveals a nearly tied national race, with Harris at 48.2% and Trump at 47.3%. Despite Harris’s national lead, Trump holds slight advantages in key swing states: 1.8% in Arizona, 2% in Georgia, 1.4% in North Carolina, and 0.5% in Pennsylvania.
