In the final push for the presidency, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump engaged in a fierce contest in Pennsylvania on Monday, a state that could be decisive in the upcoming election.
As the two candidates wrapped up their campaigns, Harris concluded her day at the iconic steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, famously featured in the film *Rocky*, declaring, “The momentum is on our side.” Earlier, she visited key areas including Allentown, Scranton, and Pittsburgh, making a stop at a Puerto Rican restaurant in Reading to connect with voters. Harris even joined campaign volunteers in canvassing door-to-door, telling one voter who had already cast her ballot for the Democratic ticket, “It’s the day before the election, and I just wanted to come by and say I hope to earn your vote.”
Meanwhile, Trump began his day in North Carolina before wrapping up in Michigan, with stops in Reading and Pittsburgh. He delivered impassioned speeches filled with unfounded claims of voter fraud, warnings about migrant crime, and promises to “revitalize” America. “With your vote tomorrow, we can fix every single problem our country faces and lead America—and the whole world—to new heights of glory,” Trump proclaimed to his supporters.
While Harris focused on a message of hope and optimism without directly mentioning Trump, the Republican nominee was less restrained, attacking her repeatedly. His running mate, Ohio Senator JD Vance, echoed this sentiment during his rally in Atlanta, stating, “We are going to take out the trash in Washington, D.C., and the trash’s name is Kamala Harris.”
As of Sunday, more than 82 million Americans have already cast their votes, according to the University of Florida’s Election Lab, which monitors early and mail-in voting across the country.
