The countdown to the US presidential election has begun. As the campaign enters its final phase, Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump are energetically rallying, focusing mainly on swing states. From pop stars to high-profile leaders, many have rallied behind Kamala Harris, while noted personalities like Elon Musk and Mel Gibson stand in support of Trump.
Though the American election process is notoriously intricate, it is made fascinating by celebrities stepping onto the campaign field. The Democratic Party is often regarded as more progressive than its counterparts in American political history. Therefore, the tradition of coming forth to support and campaign for favored candidates is longstanding. This election sees prominent figures like the Obama couple and several pop singers campaigning for Kamala Harris.
