US Election 2024: Trump, Kamala Harris holds Final Rallies on Evening of Election Day

Donald Trump and Kamal Harris are wrapping up to their Presidential campaigns with final rallies on the evening of the election.

The Republican Candidate, 78, began his last day of campaign with an event in Raleigh, North Carolina in which he described the campaign’s conclusion as the “end of a journey”. The former president continued to take a swipe at his 60-year-old competitor Harris declaring that she would “open the borders” if she became the president.

According to recent reports on election campaigns, Trump also claimed that he had been campaigning for 62 days in a row, he stated, “I could be at the most beautiful beaches in the world right now, but I’m here because I would rather be with you people.”

He also glorified his supporter and businessman Elon Musk, who has thrown his support behind Trump on the campaign trail, describing him as an “amazing guy.” Meantime, the Vice President is spending his whole Monday in Pennsylvania, a crucial battleground state that is anticipated to play a big part in the outcome of today’s contest.

Speaking in Scranton, Harris shied away from mentioning her competitor’s name, instead to focus on her own campaign,“ I thank you all for spending time that you’ve taken out of your busy lives,” Harris added.

Earlier, in an interview with NBC, Trump said there would be a "big role" for former presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr. in his administration. Kennedy, a vaccine sceptic and the nephew of former US president John F Kennedy, withdrew as an independent candidate before he endorsed Trump for the presidency.

Trump also did not rule out banning certain vaccines as an option during his second term. "Well, I'm going to talk to Kennedy and talk to other people, and I'll make a decision, but he's a very talented guy and has strong views," he told NBC.

On Friday, Kennedy said in a post on X that a Trump administration will ban fluoride in water on its first day in office, declaring it was "industrial waste" that leads to problems like cancer and other diseases.

According to credentials, More than 77 million Americans have already cast their vote ahead of election week, That’s almost half the 160 million votes returned in 2020.

Trump has held 37 political rallies this year, with an average crowd size of about 5600. In contrast, Harris has appeared at six campaign rallies since becoming Democratic Parties nominee, with crowd sizes ranging from 10,000 to 15,000.
