Final Sprint Phase of the U.S. Election!
The U.S. presidential election will officially begin voting on November 5, with each state selecting its own electors. U.S. media reports that this election is one of the "most fiercely contested U.S. elections in the past 60 years". At this critical moment, every vote from the electorate may profoundly impact the future political landscape.
**Intense Support Rate Competition**
Currently, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump have comparable support rates. The latest polls show that both have received 49% nationwide support, with another 2% of voters still undecided. This result indicates that the competition between the two main candidates is quite fierce.
The U.S. presidential election will ultimately be decided by the Electoral College vote, so the situation in key swing states will greatly influence the election outcome. According to the latest polling tracking, Harris currently holds a slight lead in the 2024 presidential election with 226 electoral votes compared to Trump's 219.
**Candidates' Policy Positions**
Trump is focusing on cryptocurrency policy in this election, aiming to make the U.S. a global center for cryptocurrency. His campaign platform emphasizes economic freedom and reducing government intervention, attracting many cryptocurrency-supporting voters, and also receiving backing from Wall Street and Silicon Valley. Trump is actively campaigning in key states to expand his voter base.
As the current Vice President, Harris adopts a more moderate stance on economic and immigration policies, supporting clean energy and welfare policies. Although she has a slight advantage in the polls, she faces challenges on economic and employment issues and needs to solidify voter confidence in her economic policies.
**The Key Role of the "Blue Wall" States**
The "Blue Wall" states—Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—have traditionally been seen as important support for the Democratic Party. These three states consistently supported the Democratic Party from 1992 to 2012, but were broken by Trump in 2016, helping him win the election. Maintaining the "Blue Wall" is crucial for the Democratic Party; losing it could signal a Republican victory.
