As the United States heads to the polls on Tuesday, Republican candidate Donald Trump and Democratic leader Kamala Harris are tirelessly campaigning in key battleground states with the aim of winning over voters. With the countdown to election day underway, Trump has been revisiting the painful memories of the 2020 election, stating he 'shouldn't have left the White House,' raising speculation on whether he will accept the results should he lose to Harris in the November 5 vote.
According to the University of Florida's Election Lab, keeping track of early and mail-in voting, over 75 million Americans have already cast their ballots as of Sunday. Kamala Harris presents this election as a fight to protect the nation's essential freedoms, uphold constitutional values, and secure women's rights, while Trump vows to rebuild the economy and liberate America from illegal immigrants.
A Fierce Contest Between Harris and Trump
Vice President Harris and former President Donald Trump are vigorously canvassing politically crucial states, making their case for support amid predictions of an extraordinarily tight race from various polls. However, a recent survey in Iowa indicates Harris is leading with 47% while Trump is at 44%. Trump immediately dismissed this survey.
Revisiting the counting process of the 2020 presidential election, Trump, during a rally in Pennsylvania on Sunday, reiterated his stance on not leaving the White House. After Joe Biden's rise to power, Trump accused the voting process of fraud and contested the results in courts, yet his claims were rejected.

Trump Criticizes Biden's Policies
In his speech, Trump also questioned Biden administration's immigration policies, asserting that as long as he was in the White House, the nation's borders remained secure.
At a rally in Lititz, Pennsylvania, the former president stated, "The day I left the office, our borders were the most secure in our country's history. I shouldn't have gone. I mean, honestly, because we were performing excellently." Trump refused to concede the 2020 election results and filed numerous court cases to challenge them, all of which ended unsuccessfully.
'The Corrupt Machine of the Democratic Party...'
During the rally, Trump also criticized Harris and accused the Democratic Party of being a 'corrupt machine.' He alleged, "It's all corrupt. I'm running against a completely corrupt individual."
Pennsylvania has emerged as the most crucial among the seven major battleground states, with 19 electoral college votes. This is followed by North Carolina and Georgia, each with 16, Michigan at 15, and Arizona with 11. At the Pennsylvania rally, Trump promised to usher in a 'new golden age' in America if elected and vowed to rectify the 'wrongdoings' of the Biden-Harris administration.
