The 2024 Presidential Election in the United States is held today (Nov. 05) with Donald Trump and Kamala Harris vying to become the next president.
Millions of people will soon head to the polls, which open in some states at 05:00 ET (10:00 GMT).

Harris, who became the Democratic Party candidate after President Joe Biden exited the race, has advocated for abortion rights and pledged to lower food and housing costs for working families.

Republican candidate Trump, who survived two assassination attempts this year, has vowed to seal the border and has proposed tax cuts worth trillions.

Trump ended his campaign with a speech in Michigan – while Harris wrapped up her campaign in another swing state, Pennsylvania.

More than 82 million people have already voted in what polls suggest is an historically close election.
