2 Days to US Presidential Election: Harris and Trump Fight for Pennsylvania Votes
HOLIDAY NEWS, Washington DC - Donald Trump and Kamala Harris focus on states, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Georgia whose political direction remains unclear.
Both want to influence voters who have not yet made a choice. With only two days left (Indonesia time) until the US presidential election, the campaign has reached its peak.
Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and her Republican rival Donald Trump are making visits to swing states to influence undecided voters.
On Sunday, Harris was in Michigan, while Trump focused on North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Georgia.
The latest New York Times/Siena poll shows Trump and Harris effectively tied in Pennsylvania, each receiving 48 percent of the vote.
Meanwhile, according to National Polling tracker FiveThirtyEight, Harris has a narrow 1 percentage point lead over Trump.
However, this lead is shrinking, indicating that either candidate has a strong chance of winning.
In crucial states, the race is tight, with candidates often changing their leads based on recent polls.
Key battleground states include Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, Wisconsin and Nevada.
According to daily tracker FiveThirtyEight, Harris has narrow leads in Michigan and Wisconsin, with margins of about 0.8 points and 0.6 points, respectively.
On the other hand, Trump is gaining ground in Arizona, where he currently has a 2.5 point lead over Harris. In North Carolina and Georgia, the lead hovers around 1.5 points. Additionally, Trump maintained a 0.9-point lead in Nevada and a narrow 0.3-point lead in the crucial state of Pennsylvania.
Harris made his first stop in Detroit, where he spoke to churchgoers.
“We heard Harris talk about the need to unite the country, to help it heal after a divisive election,” said Al Jazeera's Teresa Bo, reporting from Detroit, Michigan.
"He certainly appeals to African-American voters in Michigan, a very important state. Recent polls show him trailing, especially among African-American men. "A lot of people we've talked to say they won't vote because they don't believe it will affect their lives," Bo said.

“Kami mendengar Harris berbicara tentang perlunya mempersatukan negara, untuk membantunya pulih setelah pemilu yang memecah belah,” kata Teresa Bo dari Al Jazeera, yang melaporkan dari Detroit, Michigan.
"Ia tentu saja menarik bagi para pemilih Afrika-Amerika di Michigan, negara bagian yang sangat penting. Jajak pendapat terkini menunjukkan bahwa ia tertinggal, terutama di kalangan pria Afrika-Amerika. Banyak orang yang telah kami ajak bicara mengatakan bahwa mereka tidak akan memilih karena mereka tidak yakin hal itu akan memengaruhi kehidupan mereka," kata Bo.
