The results of the first polling station in the US election are out. Hart's votes are tied. Is a "big chaos" coming?
American voters are rushing to various polling stations to vote in the general election. According to the time difference between Beijing and the United States,
On the morning of November 6th, Beijing time, polling stations in seven key swing states in the United States will be closed one after another and the ballot counting will begin.
The results of the first polling station in the US election have been released, with Harris and Trump tied at 3:3. Generally speaking, if the vote gap between the two candidates is large, the results of the US election may be released on the afternoon of November 6.
But judging from the current election situation of Harris and Trump, the results of this US election are likely to be delayed. Some public opinion has even bluntly stated that it is no longer appropriate to describe this election as "Election Day" but should be changed to "Election Week."
Because recent polls released by various parties show that the current election situation between Trump and Harris is very stalemate, and both of them are likely to be unable to accept their defeat.
As a result, protests against the election results have been filed and lawsuits have been filed with the Supreme Court. Due to the combination of various factors, the results of the US election may even be delayed for several weeks.
Perhaps because the election situation was so close, Harris and Trump were still holding campaign events until November 4, the day before the vote, and both of them canvassed for votes in Pennsylvania, one of the key swing states. Pennsylvania has a total of 19 electoral votes, ranking first among the seven key swing states, and its importance to the final election results is self-evident.
For Harris and Trump, winning the state's votes is undoubtedly a major guarantee of victory in the end. It is worth noting that although the election results have not yet been announced, the stalemate in the election has begun to make the government and even the people feel a sense of crisis. Because of concerns that the election results will cause riots, many businesses in the United States have blocked the windows and doors of their shops with wooden boards and iron mesh.
The government even installed high protective nets and roadblocks near important buildings such as the Capitol and the White House. In addition, in order to prevent a recurrence of the Capitol Hill riots, police in Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States, have begun to take turns on guard, ready to respond to emergencies at any time, and various swing states have also made emergency plans, not only installing barbed wire and bulletproof glass for election facilities, but also sending additional armed police forces, and some swing states have even set up escape routes for election workers.
Poll data shows that 69% of adults in the United States feel stressed because of this election, and some people even say that the presidential election has had a negative impact on their relationships with family and friends.
Why has the presidential election become a source of stress for the American people and even damaged the relationships between family and friends? The reason is that the current political confrontation in the US is serious. It can be seen that in order to incite more voters to vote for them, Harris and Trump and their respective political parties,
They are constantly throwing mud at each other, insisting that the other side is the "biggest threat" to American democracy. Especially during the campaign, Biden declared that "Trump's supporters are garbage," which vividly demonstrated the divisiveness and division in American society.
After all, if Biden, as the president of the United States, cannot treat Republican supporters objectively, then the attitude of ordinary American voters towards supporters of the opposing camp will most likely become even worse. Data shows that
Among supporters of both parties in the United States, 80% said they were hostile to people in the other camp. It is reported that during the campaign, voters supporting Harris held a rally in Pennsylvania and some voters were violently attacked. In North Carolina, four men shot three teenagers immediately after they stated that they did not like Trump.
From Trump's three assassination attempts to supporters of both parties fighting each other,
All these absurd events show that the political confrontation in the United States is becoming more and more serious. Whether Harris or Trump wins, it may not be able to prevent the continued division of American society.
In other words, the 2021 Capitol Hill riots are likely to happen again.
