India

From intense voting issues, legal challenges and assassination attempt, the 2024 US presidential elections has seen them all so far. A fierce contest is being witnessed between current Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.

If she wins, Harris will not only become the first South Asian and first woman to hold the presidency but will also represent a historic milestone for representation. A Trump win would make him the first President since Barack Obama to be re-elected after losing an election and the first Republican to achieve this since George W. Bush in 2004.

A fierce contest between VP Kamala Harris and ex-President Donald Trump marks the US elections. Historic wins loom as Harris could be the first South Asian woman President, while Trump's win would mark a GOP milestone.

Millions cast vote in historic US presidential election; focus shifts on results

Posted by: Poonam Singh

Voting in the US presidential election entered the final hours with millions of Americans already deciding whether to elevate Vice President Kamala Harris to helm the White House or send Republican leader Donald Trump to the top office for a second time.

The race remained stubbornly deadlocked for weeks with some of the election forecasters giving 60-year Harris an edge over former President Trump, 78, in some of the key battleground states like Pennsylvania.

The first polls are already closed in Indiana and Kentucky, two states that traditionally vote for the Republican Party.

In the next few hours, polls are set to close in the seven battleground states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin which will effectively decide who will be the 47th President of the United States.

With the voting closing in the next few hours, the people are now bracing for the much-awaited results.
