About our 2024 US Presidential Election news
Latest news on 2024 US Presidential Election, providing comprehensive coverage of candidates Harris and Trump, polls, debates, campaign events, and key issues shaping the race for the White House.
The 2024 United States presidential election, scheduled for 5 November 2024, is shaping up to be a historic and closely watched contest between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. With President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the race in July, Harris became the Democratic nominee, selecting Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate. Trump secured the Republican nomination and chose Ohio Senator JD Vance as his vice presidential pick.
Recent polls show a tight race, with Harris and Trump neck-and-neck in key battleground states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The candidates have clashed over issues including the economy, immigration, abortion rights, and climate change. A September debate hosted by ABC News is expected to draw significant viewership, though Trump initially threatened to boycott. Both campaigns are ramping up get-out-the-vote efforts in crucial swing states that could decide the election.
The election has sparked intense interest and activism across the country. Voter registration drives are in full swing on university campuses and in minority communities. Grassroots organisations on both sides are holding rallies and canvassing neighbourhoods. The campaigns have also taken to social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram to reach younger voters. High-profile surrogates including Barack Obama for Harris and Ron DeSantis for Trump have hit the campaign trail.
This election comes amid ongoing concerns about election security and the health of American democracy following the events of January 6th, 2021. Election officials have implemented new safeguards and conducted extensive testing of voting systems. However, Trump continues to make baseless claims of election fraud, worrying some experts. The Department of Homeland Security is working with state and local officials to protect against both foreign interference and domestic threats to election integrity.
