Polling stations have opened in numerous states throughout the US, with the votes deciding not solely who the nation’s subsequent president can be but in addition the make-up of the House of Representatives and the Senate.
Election Day on Tuesday is the fruits of weeks of early voting in some places. A number of states started early voting – whether or not by mail or in particular person – way back to September.
Almost 81 million voters already forged their ballots earlier than Election Day, based on the College of Florida’s Election Lab.
Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican rival Donald Trump are going head-to-head in a race that continues to be too near name.
Regardless of the consequence, the outcome will outline US politics and coverage for the following 4 years. It would even be historic as voters will both elect the primary feminine president in Harris or the primary convicted felon in Trump.
The vote can even finally reveal the complete extent of the altering demographics of the US citizens.
The primary voting web site technically opened simply after Monday at midnight Jap Time (05:00 GMT Tuesday) within the tiny New Hampshire city of Dixville Notch.
As soon as the polls shut within the night, the outcomes could take hours or days to be tabulated. States can’t start reporting their vote counts till polls shut.
