alert-–-presidential-election-odds-live:-three-swing-states-shift-in-latest-trump-harris-polling-forecastAlert – Presidential election odds live: Three swing states shift in latest Trump-Harris polling forecast

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are zigzagging across crucial swing states with one final day of campaigning ahead of the election. 

Trump is rallying in three swing states of Michigan, North Carolina and Pennsylvania on the last day of the campaign. Meanwhile, Harris is hitting Philadelphia, Allentown and Pittsburgh with star-studded supporters including Oprah and Katy Perry.

A final poll by the New York Times released yesterday had Donald Trump behind  Kamala Harris in four critical swing states: Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina and Wisconsin.

They are tied in Michigan and Pennsylvania and Trump is up by one point in Arizona.

The Real Clear Polling average has Trump up over Harris nationally by 0.1 percent. This race may end up being the closest in U.S. history as a new TIPP poll has both candidates tied on 48 percent on the election eve.

And according to the betting markets, Trump has recaptured a slight lead over Harris with less than 48 hours until the polls close after a shock Iowa poll had him behind the VP in the solidly red state.

DailyMail.com's interactive guide on Trump and Harris' path to victory in 2024 election

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are locked in one of the closest presidential races in history.

After months of frantically fanning the swing states to pick up as many undecided voters as possible, it all comes down to Tuesday night.

The unprecedented campaign has seen a candidate drop out, two assassination attempts and fluctuating polls that show the race is essentially a coin-flip.

Polling aggregators on Monday had the gap between Trump and Harris at as little as 0.1%.

More than 75million Americans cast their ballots early in an election that could be decided by just a few thousand votes.

DailyMail.com's election model shows the race has narrowed even FURTHER

by Rob Crilly, Chief Campaign Correspondent

The race has narrowed further, according to our friends at J.L. Partners, whose election model shows Trump losing his advantage.

Their latest numbers show that Trump wins in 60.4 percent of simulations. That is his lowest number for a month and means he has dropped eight points in the past week as momentum shifts to Harris.

That moves the overall result from LEAN TRUMP (albeit it by the smallest of margins) into TOSSUP Trump territory.

Swing state probablities have all changed since yesterday, with particularly notable impacts in Michigan, Wisconsin and Arizona.

In Arizona, Trump’s win probability has increased by 6.5 points. It has moved from LIKELY TRUMP to STRONG TRUMP.

Michigan saw Harris’ win probability increase by 12.8 points. It is now a LEAN HARRIS state having become TOSSUP HARRIS yesterday.

Wisconsin has seen a 16.1 point movement against Trump. The state has shifted from TOSSUP TRUMP to LEAN HARRIS.

In his briefing note, data scientist Callum Hunter writes:

The final day of the campaign has seen big movements at the state level in our model. With Michigan and Wisconsin veering strongly towards Harris due to new polls and correlation effects within the model.

With these states now considered Harris states, the race has shifted such that Pennsylvania is the deciding state for both campaigns – in 56 percent of simulations Pennsylvania is the deciding state.

Whilst October saw Trump’s rise give him multiple routes to the White House, the latest rounds of polling have closed many of those off.

Both campaigns are now fighting for Pennsylvania – literally tens of thousands of voters might decide this election and it may come down to the thinnest of margins.

As the fog of campaigning lifts on the battleground states the final face-off is set to take place in the Keystone state itself. Brace yourselves. We are in for a very bumpy ride.

Trump takes stage nearly two hours late for third of four Election Day eve rallies

Katelyn Caralle, Senior U.S. Political Reporter

Donald Trump arrived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for his third of four rallies on Monday.

The swing state barnstorming comes the day before the 2024 presidential election as the former president makes his final bid to get a second term.

Trump’s first rally of the day was held in Raleigh, North Carolina followed by one in Ready, Pennsylvania.

The Republican candidate will conclude his Election Day eve with an event in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

By Nikki Schwab, Chief Campaign Correspondent in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Thousands of supporters of Vice President Kamala Harris waited in line to see her final appearance on the campaign trail, in front of the iconic ‘Rocky Steps’ in Philadelphia Monday night.

While Harris wasn’t expected to get to the City of Brotherly Love and speak to the crowd until 11 p.m., programming kicked off a few minutes before 7 p.m. with Grammy Award-winning singer Jazmine Sullivan covering Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On.

‘I don’t know about you, but I feel safer when there’s a woman in leadership,’ Sullivan told the crowd.

Harris will be joined in Philadelphia by Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga, The Roots, Fat Joe, Ricky Martin, Freeway and Just Blaze, Adam Blackstone and DJ Cassidy.

Four years ago, Lady Gaga also performed at President Joe Biden’s final rally in Pennsylvania, outside where the Steelers play in Pittsburgh.

Winfrey has been active politically this cycle, speaking in support of Harris at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in August.

Martin is among the Puerto Rican artists to vocalize their support for Harris in the aftermath of former President Donald Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally last week in which a MAGA-aligned comedian called the U.S. territory a ‘floating island of garbage.’

Harris is barnstorming through Pennsylvania Monday with her final rallies taking place in Pittsburgh and then Philadelphia.

Kamala Harris stopped in a residential neighborhood in Reading, Pennsylvania, to knock on a few doors, canvassing for votes.

At the first house she greeted a couple, a man and a woman, and their adult son, who introduced himself as Cole.

‘Cole, that’s our son’s name!’ Harris said as she shook his hand.

She moved on to a second home. The woman answering the door asked if she could give the Democratic nominee a hug. ‘Of course,’ Harris said.

The woman than brought her husband out too.

‘You got my vote already because I’m going to be working the polls,’ the woman told her. Her husband would cast his ballot for Harris tomorrow.

Jill Biden hit the campaign trail for Kamala Harris in North Carolina, getting emotional as she talked about wrapping up her time in the White House.

While in Durham, she told the crowd that it has been her ‘life’s honor to be your First Lady.’

The room erupted in long, loud applause.

‘You’re gonna make me emotional and I gotta say this last line!’ she said when the cheering finally died down. ‘Let’s elect Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.’

Biden also brought cookies to volunteers at a phone bank in Carrboro.

‘Tomorrow’s gonna be a great day,’ she told them.

The first lady was wearing her Christian Sirano dress that is covered in the word ‘vote.’

Kamala Harris kept up her courtship of Puerto Rican voters, stopping at the Old San Juan Café in Reading, Pennsylvania.

She was joined by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro.

‘I’m very hungry. I don’t get a chance to eat as often as I like,’ Harris said.

Diana de La Rosa, the owner of the restaurant, helped Harris place her order, which included cassava and yellow rice. The Democratic nominee paid with her credit card.

The restaurant was small with four tables under murals of Puerto Rico.

‘I have a saying. I eat no for breakfast. Which means I don’t hear no,’ Harris said.

Kamala prepares for Pittsburgh rally with Katy Perry

Sarah Ewall-Wice, Senior U.S. Political Reporter in Pittsburgh, PA:

Vice President Kamala Harris is making her second to last stop on the day before Election Day in Pittsburgh, PA, the state’s second-largest city and largest on the western part of the state.

Biden won Allegheny County with nearly 60 percent of support in 2020, but Harris needs to run up turnout here in order to win the state. Her Get Out the Vote rally will feature performances from Katy Perry and Andra Day.

Perry endorsed Harris earlier in the day calling her ‘KatyCat!’

Crowds have been gathering throughout the afternoon at the location even though Harris won’t be speaking for several more hours.

The rally is taking place in the shadow of the Carries Blast Furnaces National Historic Landmark. It is the remnant of the once massive U.S. Steel Homestead Steel Works along the Monongahela River and pays homage to the city’s past dominance in the steel industry.

Signs running along the road leading up to the venue read ‘steel workers for Harris’ as multiple attendees wore union shirts. Harris is looking to shore up union support in the state.

Other supporters ranging from young children to seniors were decked out in Harris t-shirt and hats or black and yellow Steelers gear. This is Yinzer country. While there was a lot of Harris-Walz signs, multiple people have also been waving the yellow ‘terrible towels’ seen at Steelers games before the vice president is set to speak.

A DJ has been blasting toons all afternoon from Beyonce’s Girls to the YMCA and Wiz Khalifa’s Black and Yellow, the city’s unofficial anthem.

The stage is lined with blue signs that read ‘Vote for Freedom’ while massive American flags were lit up behind the crowds of supporters.

Former Ronald Reagan aide reveals three reasons he thinks Kamala will lose

A longtime aide to former President Ronald Reagan has named three factors he believes will sink Kamala Harris and cause her to lose to Donald Trump.

Kenneth L. Khachigian, who got his start in presidential politics when he was drafted into the 1968 Nixon presidential campaign, said the base Harris is aiming to win over will abandon her in droves.

He also thinks she is ‘propped up’ by popular Democrats and the media, while also saying she isn’t different enough from President Joe Biden to convince voters to stick with the party in power.

Joe Rogan publishes podcast with Elon Musk on election eve

Podcaster Joe Rogan published a new interview with Elon Musk on Monday, just before the U.S. election.

That’s three out of four events done for JD Vance. And his wife Usha has her role down to a fine art.

They come on stage together holding hands before a hug and a big smacker on the lips. There’s no messing around. It looks like a full on snog.

Then Usha exits the stage as quickly as she can, staying out of the spotlight and watching her husbands speech from somewhere unobtrusive.

She has given only a couple of interviews and has avoided taking on some of the other roles of the political spouse. But she has the walk-on, snog, and walk-off move mastered.

NFL icon's daughter gives impassioned speech at Trump's Pittsburgh rally

Katelyn Caralle, Senior U.S. Political Reporter

The daughter of NFL Hall of Famer Jim Brown spoke at Donald Trump’s rally in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Monday.

The day before the 2024 presidential election, Kimberly Brown went to Steelers Nation to speak in support of the former president getting a second term.

‘Now normally we’re rivals right? But today we’re allies. We’re Patriots, we’re Americans,’ Brown said while wearing a Browns jersey with her father’s name and number. ‘And just as my father, Cleveland Browns No. 32, supported Donald Trump, so do I.’

‘Because Donald Trump is going to keep men out of women’s sports,’ Brown said. ‘I play women’s tackle football.’

[My dad’s] offense, I’m defense. Can you image us going head-to-head? No. I’d be taken out on a stretcher,’ she said.

Meet five Americans whose votes could predict who wins the 2024 election

by DailyMail.com pollster and founder of J.L. Partners James Johnson

Over the last six months I have traveled the swing states.

Two debates, two hurricanes, and countless interviews later, we have arrived at Election Day.

Because American political opinion is so diverse – and so polarized – there is no one type of swing voter who will determine the outcome.

Instead, the result hinges on several groups who, depending on how they move, will put Kamala Harris or Donald Trump in the White House.

This is the cast that will decide the election:

Trump says he 'doesn't sleep' and hasn't taken a day off for months in final plea to voters

Donald Trump told supporters at his Raleigh rally on Monday that he ‘doesn’t sleep’ and hasn’t taken a day off for ’62 days’ in a final attempt to prove his dedication to the country before election day.

Trump and Kamala have both shown signs of weariness in recent weeks as the grueling final days of the campaign take their toll.

At his rally on Monday in North Carolina, he wore it like a badge of honor.

America locked and loaded: White House is barricaded, stores board up and there's a chilling warning as election tensions soar

Americans are braced for civil unrest amid scary predictions of ‘blood’ during Tuesday’s knife-edge presidential election, reviving painful memories of recent assassination bids and chaos after the 2020 vote.

Businesses in Washington DC were on Monday boarding up their windows as security fencing went up around the White House, US Vice President Harris’ residence, and other key buildings in the capital.

Fights have broken out at polling stations and election workers have prepared for gun attacks, amid a flurry of threats to blow up political offices and other sensitive sites ahead of election day.

Rob Crilly, Chief U.S. Political Correspondent in Atlanta Georgia

Vance takes the stage for his third rally of the day and the now familiar sound of banjos and Merle Haggard singing ‘America First. It echoes around a hangar-like space in the bowels of Atlanta’s Cobb Galleria Center.

On the final day of campaigning there is no time for his signature move, inviting questions from journalists and turning every event into a press conference.

More to the point, election eve is not the time for an unexpected question and a gaffe that could overshadow Election Day.

Just ask Democrats who have banished Joe Biden from the election trail.

‘Fundamentally, my job has been to define Kamala Harris, to try to identify the ways in which her policies have been bad for people, and to hammer that message as much as possible to as many people who will listen,’ he told me earlier.

‘And that’s why we do so many media interviews, and that’s why we do so many events, and that’s why we do so many press conferences.’

Maxim declares support for Trump

Maxim, the international men’s magazine based in New York City, has thrown its support behind Donald Trump as the election campaign draws to a close.

The publication declared it is the ‘only major magazine’ to endorse Trump in a social media post which included a picture of the former president on stage with Elon Musk.

In an editorial published this weekend, Maxim said Trump achieved the ‘most unlikely success story in generations’ after ascending to the presidency with ‘zero political experience’.

It read: ‘There’s a reason millions of people want to live vicariously through him. He’s bold enough to say what’s on his mind, rich enough to do whatever he wants and influential enough to get stuff done.’

22:27

Trump reveals who his first phone call from the White House will be if he wins the 2024 election

Donald Trump said on his final day of campaigning that he will dial up Mexico’s new president on his first day in office to inform her he will slap a 25 percent tariff on imports from her country.

Trump referenced new Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo who ‘I suppose is a very, very nice woman, they say.’

‘I haven’t met her, and I’m going to inform her on Day One or sooner, that if they don’t stop this onslaught of criminals and drugs coming into our country, I’m going to immediately impose a 25 percent tariff on everything they send into the United States of America,’ he said he would threaten.

Iowa pollster J. Ann Selzer gives simple four-word response after Trump calls her an 'enemy'

Iowa pollster J. Ann Selzer reacted Sunday to Donald Trump labeling her an ‘enemy’ for producing a poll that suggested Kamala Harris had taken a lead in the solidly red state.

Trump reacted with rage at his rally Sunday in Lititz, Pennsylvania over the Des Moines Register/Mediacom survey conducted by Selzer & Company that showed Harris at 47 percent support to Trump’s 44 percent.

Iowa has gone red for Trump the last two election cycles after twice voting for Democratic President Barack Obama – and hasn’t been considered a battleground state this cycle.

‘There is no upsides,’ Selzer told CNN’s Anderson Cooper, explaining, ‘I can’t see that there’s any advantage to me or my career in messing with the numbers to make it look a particular way.’

Harris brings in Fat Joe to appeal to Puerto Rican voters

By Emily Goodin, senior White House correspondent

Kamala Harris brought in Fat Joe to help her appeal to the Puerto Rican vote as she wraps up her presidential campaign.

‘This message is going to be short, but sweet, and it’s about pride to my Latinos, not just to Puerto Ricans, to my Mexican brothers and sisters,’ the rapper said during a campaign rally in Allentown, Pa.

He railed against Donald Trump for calling Hispanics ‘rapists’ and for coming to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria and throwing paper towels to the crowd.

‘Where’s your wisdom? Where’s your pride? If you’re still out there talking about you might be voting for somebody or you’re not decided, where’s your pride as a Latino?’ he roared. ‘If you’re Latino, you’re Haitian, you’re black, where’s your pride? Where’s your pride?’

Fat Joe was born in the Bronx of Puerto Rican and Cuban descent.

Harris appeared in Allentown hours after Trump held a rally there as the former president tried to clean up the fallout from a joke gone bad at his Madison Square Garden rally.

In Pennsylvania, a crucial battleground state, the Puerto Rican population amounts to nearly 500,000 people and could swing the outcome of the election.

Allentown is a Hispanic majority town. Harris has three more stops in the state: Reading, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia.

Exclusive:Republicans' growing election integrity doubt over Nevada mail-in ballot ruling

By Katelyn Caralle, Senior U.S. Political Reporter in Las Vegas, Nevada

Worries are emerging among Republicans that voters will not trust the outcome of the election in the swing state of Nevada after a ballot counting court ruling last week.

Republicans were handed a loss in the left-leaning battleground when the Nevada Supreme Court ruled just eight days before the 2024 election that un-postmarked mail-in ballots received on the third day after November 5 may still be counted.

‘This infringes on – and dilutes the right of – every voter who exercised the constitutional right to vote,’ pollster Craig Keshishian told DailyMail.com. ‘And in legal terms, it’s an impingement on due process and equal protection of those who play by the rules.’

RNC spokeswoman Claire Zunk shared a statement with DailyMail.com that declares the ruling undermines the ‘critical election security safeguard that ensures ballots mailed after Election Day are not counted.’

Pennsylvania secretary of state admits election results won't be known tomorrow

Pennsylvania’s Secretary of State Al Schmidt said that the election result in the state might not be known right away.

He said that the state ‘has never had final, official results on Election Night.’

Part of the reason is that mail-in ballots won’t be tallied until Election Day after 7 a.m. local time.

The state has seen ‘nearly two million mail-in ballots’ already, he went on.

All registered voters will have a chance to make their voices heard.

In 2020, it took four days for the Associated Press to make its announcement that Joe Biden had won.

Trump complains about 'ridiculous' NFL kickoff rule at Pennsylvania rally

Speaking in Reading, Pennsylvania backed by ‘Women for Trump’ signs, the former president started in on a football analogy – and then got to complaining about a new NFL on-field rule.

‘We’re at the 2 yard line, maybe the 1 yard line,’ Trump began, shortly after saying he had a ‘massive lead.’

Then he said ‘We’re starting from a negative, you know, we’re starting from like about 15 yards off the field. We’re not starting at the 20.’

‘And speaking of football, maybe we can get the NFL to drop that ridiculous kickoff,’ Trump said. He said he wondered ‘’What the hell are they? What is that?’ He continued: ‘I watched the game the other day. I said, What the hell happened? They just kicked off and nobody moved. Oh, well, that’s up to them.’

The new rules this season create a ‘landing zone.’ The two teams line up closer together, the kick remains at the 35, and tacklers from the kicking team hold back until the ball hits the ground or a player after a kick. It is meant to reduce high-speed collisions and player injuries.

Harris campaign sets expectations to not know White House result on Election Day

By Nikki Schwab, Chief Campaign Correspondent in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign cautioned Monday that a result likely wouldn’t be known on Election Day since the presidential race is so close.

‘And, you know, look at the end of the day, obviously we have seen all along, we’ve believed all along, this race is going to be incredibly close, and so it’s really going to come down to mobilization,’ Harris’ campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon said on a call with reporters Monday afternoon.

O’Malley Dillon said the campaign expected to know the results in North Carolina and Georgia first – though not if the numbers are extremely close. And have near-complete results in four states that are not considered battlegrounds this year: Ohio, Virginia, Florida and Colorado.

‘We think everyone should be very careful not to over-index on these results in any one state since this cycle and this election states may not move together in ways that they have in the past,’ O’Malley Dillon.

By the end of Tuesday night, she said the campaign expected to have ‘near complete’ results from Georgia, North Carolina and Michigan and partial results from Pennsylvania.

By Wednesday morning there was an expectation that most results from Wisconsin would be in, as well as additional numbers from Pennsylvania and Michigan.

From Wednesday on, the campaign said additional results would be tabulated from Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nevada. In Nevada, mail-in ballots simply have to be postmarked by the time polls close on Election Day.

‘So we may not know the results of this election for several days, but we are very focused on staying calm and confident throughout this period as the process goes through, and we really know that we as a campaign have a really important role to play in keeping people calm and communicating and being transparent about the process,’ O’Malley Dillon said.

Breaking:GOP sues Milwaukee after saying the city put a limit on Republican poll watchers

The Republican National Committee sued the city of Milwaukee, in battleground Wisconsin, after the city allegedly tried to put a limit on Republican poll watchers in certain precincts.

The GOP states that the limit on poll watchers will cast ‘doubt on the administration of our elections and cause a lack of voter confidence in our electoral process.’

The lawsuit comes the day before the election that’s razor-thin.

Trump and Harris are polling within a few points of each other in the critical swing state of Wisconsin.

The director of Milwaukee’s Election Commission fired back in a statement:

The [Milwaukee Election Commission] denies the allegation that observers will be arbitrarily limited. However, observers may be subject to reasonable limitations, a power given to chief inspectors under Wisconsin law.

At no point was the Republican Party denied the presence of an observer during the in-person absentee voting period, nor will they be denied that presence on Election Day.

Nevada's top prognosticator predicts a Harris victory in the Silver State

By Nikki Schwab, Chief Campaign Correspondent in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Nevada’s top election prognosticator, Jon Ralston, predicted Monday that Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris would squeak out a victory in the Silver State.

Ralston is the CEO and editor of the Nevada Independent and wrote Monday that he believes the Democratic political machine built by the late Sen. Harry Reid knows which voters – even those who were auto-registered in the state as ‘nonpartisans’ – are ‘closet Democrats’ and will get them to the polls.

‘It will be just enough to overcome the Republican lead – along with women motivated by abortion and crossover votes that issue also will cause,’ he said.

I just have a feeling she will catch up here, but I also believe – and please remember this – it will not be clear who won on Election Night here, so block out the nattering nabobs of election denialism. It’s going to be very, very close. Prediction: Harris, 48.5 percent; Trump 48.2 percent; others and None of These Candidates, 3.3 percent.

On Friday, the final day of early voting in Nevada, at an early voting site near Las Vegas’ Harry Reid International Airport, DailyMail.com only found voters casting a ballot for former President Donald Trump.

Those voting early and in-person skewed male and said they were betting on Trump to improve the economy and better regulate illegal immigration.

Ralston noted that Democrats continue to be more comfortable mailing in their ballots and tens of thousands are expected to come in by Friday, the deadline.

Exclusive:J.D. Vance tells DailyMail.com when he thinks we will find out the results of the presidential election

Sen. J.D. Vance, Donald Trump’s running mate, believes America will know the result of the 2024 election on Tuesday night as momentum shifts toward the Republican ticket

‘My strong guess is that we’re in a good spot, that we’re going to win,’ he told DailyMail.com aboard his jet as flew between campaign stops.

‘I think that we’ll know by Tuesday night. Maybe I’m wrong about that, but you never really know until you know.’

With the race between Trump and Harris still razor-thin, pollsters have indicated that a final result could take days – or even weeks – to tally.

If any of the seven battlegrounds are close, counting mail-in ballots could drag on well into November 6 and beyond. In 2020, the race was officially called for Joe Biden four days later.

And although Trump is only up over Harris by 0.1 percent nationally according to polling averages, he has captured a strong 12-point lead in the betting markets, giving him momentum going into Election Day.

Vance is on a four-state swing as he tries to close out the 2024 race by persuading voters to get out on Election Day.

The Democratic nominee sounded optimistic.

‘I’m telling you guys, we’re good,’ Harris said. ‘We’re good.’

‘Let’s enjoy it,’ she said.

Harris is spending her final day of campaigning in Pennsylvania, the state that could decide the election.

‘The way I’ve always been thinking about our campaign in these next 24 hours is, as we are getting out the vote, as we are canvassing, let’s be intentional about building community, about building community, about building coalitions, about reminding people we all have so much more in common than what separates us,’ she told supporters in Scranton.

Throughout the day she’ll make four other stops: Allentown, Reading, and Pittsburgh before holding a massive closing rally in Philadelphia.

In Philly, she’ll be joined by Gov. Josh Shapiro, husband Doug Emhoff, Oprah Winfrey and Lady Gaga.

AOC says Green Party is 'predatory' for opposing trans women in female sports teams

Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has slammed the Green Party’s presidential ticket for being ‘predatory’ over its lack of support for transgender athletes in women’s sports.

What the exit polling can tell us on Election Day

Millions of voters are headed to the polls on Tuesday to cast their ballots in the 2024 presidential election and a series of races down ballot. But it could take some time to count those results.

What could give anxious Americans across the country some sense of where the country is headed is the exit polling which comes out as the results are coming in on Election Day.

The exit poll is the only survey conducted entirely of voters who have already cast their ballots in the election.

It gives voters and news organizations a better sense of what is happening on the ground with voters on Election Day and in early voting as the results come in.

The polling is conducted by Edison Research, which has been the only research firm to conduct national exit polling in the United States since 2004.

Liz Cheney says Republicans can't be trusted to uphold election results

By Emily Goodin, senior White House correspondent

Former Rep. Liz Cheney, a Republican, went on The View to slam Donald Trump, calling him unfit to hold office and warning that Speaker Mike Johnson cannot be counted on to uphold the 2024 election results.

She said that is why Republicans should not be in charge of the House next year. The new Congress will certify the winner of the 2024 election. Nancy Pelosi has made a similar argument that Republicans cannot be trusted to uphold the election results and that is why Democrats should be put in charge.

Cheney, asked if Johnson would do ‘the right thing,’ if Harris wins, said: ‘No. No, he won’t, and I think that’s why it’s so important that the Republicans not be in the majority come January 2025.’

Cheney, who has endorsed Kamala Harris, also addressed Trump’s comment that she should have rifles put in her face.

‘He knows that’s a threat,’ she said. ‘Obviously the intimidation won’t work.’

She revealed she’s already voted for Harris and said Republicans unhappy with Trump should not write in an alternative name when they cast their ballot.

‘It’s not a race where we have the luxury of being able, you know, sometimes conservatives will say, well, I’m going to write in an alternative,’ she said.

‘I want to make sure people all across the country understand you don’t have that luxury. We have to defeat him, and I can’t tell you how proud I was to fill in that, you know, circle next to Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.’

Whoopi Goldberg suggested Cheney, who is a lawyer, could be Harris’ attorney general.

‘You could conceivably be a great AG if this was — and I say this because your moral core is magnificent. I know you probably don’t want to even think about it, but I just feel like I would feel a lot better with you leading the FBI,’ Goldberg said.

Cheney wouldn’t directly address the idea, merely saying: ‘We have to get Vice President Harris elected tomorrow.’

And when asked about Trump’s comment that he’s going to help women whether they like it or not, Cheney replied: ‘Let’s defeat Donald Trump tomorrow whether he likes it or not.’

RFK Jr.'s closing message: 'do NOT vote for me'

By Nikki Schwab, Chief Campaign Correspondent

Former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. begged his supporters not to vote for him as his name remains on the ballot in two swing states.

‘VOTE TRUMP. No matter what state you live in, do NOT vote for me,’ RFK Jr. posted to X Monday morning.

Kennedy was unable to remove himself from the ballots in Wisconsin and Michigan, where polls show a razor-thin race between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

In August, RFK Jr. suspended his long-shot White House bid and asked supporters in swing states to back Trump. He later told supporters that they should vote for Trump regardless of where they live.

Last week the Supreme Court rejected Kennedy’s last-minute plea to have his name removed from ballots in Michigan and Wisconsin as voting had already started.

Kennedy has boasted that Trump will put him in charge of something healthcare-related if the Republican is successful Tuesday, though one of the top figures on Trump’s transition team said ‘of course not’ when asked if RFK Jr. would be tapped to be Trump’s Health and Human Services secretary.

Trump returns to his familiar refrains about Kamala Harris surrogates who have gone after him on the campaign trail.

Among them is former first lady Michelle Obama. ‘She took some shots at me. I said, “Woah, woah, woah.”‘

He called Barack Obama ‘the great divider,’ then called him by his full name, ‘Barack Hussein Obama.’

‘He came out the same way for Hillary, how did that work out?’ Trump added.

Then he called former Speaker Nancy Pelosi ‘a disgrace.’ He also blasted her husband for selling stock in Visa two months before the DOJ announced an investigation.

‘They impeached me on no evidence, I did nothing wrong. Fortunately, the Republicans stood up for me 100 percent,’ he said. Trump was acquitted 57-43, short of the necessary two-thirds majority, with seven Republicans voting to convince.

Michael Jordan issues furious response after fake Trump endorsement goes viral

Michael Jordan’s representatives have strenuously denied that the NBA legend has endorsed Donald Trump ahead of this week’s presidential election.

On the eve of the much-anticipated vote, rumors flooded social media that MJ was backing Trump in his battle against vice president Kamala Harris.

Many athletes from across sports have publicly supported their preferred candidate, including LeBron James – who endorsed Harris – and Nick Bosa, who wore a Make America Great Again hat after a recent game.

But Jordan has steered clear of backing either nominee. In a statement to DailyMail.com, his representatives said: ‘There is absolutely no truth to the claim that Michael Jordan has made an endorsement in the presidential election.’

The six-time NBA champion, whose star power endures decades after he retired, is notoriously private.

‘I was going to get out of here fast. I’m doing four of these things today. And the voice is holding up, just about barely,’ he said after making several long digressions.

He defended his speaking style. ‘The press will say, “Oh he rambled.’ No, you know what that is? That’s genius. That’s the weave. … That was the ultimate weave.

But he was watching the clock. ‘I gotta go a little quicker now. I took Marco’s place and I took Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ place … and I’m going to ask them to come up right now,’ he said. He brought up Sen. Rubio and his former press secretary.

Donald Trump kicked off his final day of campaign rallies and predicted victory if his MAGA fans make it to the polls.

‘If we get our vote, there’s nothing they can do,’ he told a crowd in North Carolina.

‘Hopefully everything will work out well. We’re way leading. All we have to do is close it up,’ Trump said, after polls showed one of the closest races in years.

‘It’s ours to lose,’ Trump said.

But he also noted how sometimes things don’t turn out as expected for Republicans. ‘You’d watch it like a racehorse and sometimes they’d get there and sometimes they wouldn’t,’ Trump allowed. ‘My only purpose in even being here today: get out and vote. You know that,’ he said.

Trump sounded hoarse on Sunday during an extended rally in Lititz, Pennsylvania where he said he shouldn’t have left the White House and spoke about how ‘somebody would have to shoot through the fake news’ to get him.

On Monday, his voice was back, and he was going on and off the teleprompter, threatening to tell Mexico’s new president he would impose a 25 percent tariff/. He previewed a potential shakedown. ‘If you don’t give us $3 billion, I’ll impose the biggest friggin’ tariff …’ Trump said, stopping himself short on the last word.

Kamala Harris changes election strategy with less than 48 hours to go

Vice President Kamala Harris did something at her rally in East Lancing, Michigan, Sunday night that she has never done before – she didn’t mention Donald Trump by name.

It was a notable change considering she has spent weeks railing against Trump as an unhinged threat to democracy. She called him ‘unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance, and out for unchecked power’ while speaking on the National Mall last week.

Did Kamala Harris work at McDonald's? All the evidence the VP did – or didn't – serve fries

Vice President Kamala Harris has not yet been able to show conclusively that she worked at McDonald’s while she was a college student.

Her claims she has used to back up her ‘middle class’ roots lead to frequent taunting from Donald Trump – who even trolled her by doing his own shift in the fast food joint.

‘I’ve now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala at McDonald’s,’ Trump told reporters and customers after he made French fries and served food out of the drive-thru service window in Pennsylvania.

The Harris campaign maintains that Harris worked at a McDonald’s location on Central Avenue in Alameda, California during the summer after her freshman year at Howard University in 1983.

But staff at the restaurant have reportedly been sworn to secrecy and when DailyMail.com contacted them to ask, an employee said ‘no, sorry’.

Donald Trump will hit three states in his final day of campaigning before Election Day, while Kamala Harris will spend her day in Pennsylvania, holding her first event six hours after the former president holds his.

Harris will hold her first event of the day at 2 pm long after Trump’s first rally at 10 a.m.

Trump will begin his morning in Raleigh, N.C., and then he, too, will be in Pennsylvania.

He and Harris will spend the afternoon cris-crossing each other in the critical battleground state.

Trump will start in Reading while Harris is in Allentown, which is her first event of the day. Then Harris will head to Allentown while Trump moves on to Pittsburgh.

Allentown is a majority Latino city that is home to 34,000 Puerto Ricans, a voting bloc that grew in power after a joke gone bad at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally.

Harris will then head to Pittsburgh and end her night in Philadelphia. She’ll bring out the star power at her final events – Katy Perry in Pittsburgh; Lady Gaga and Oprah Winfrey in Philadelphia.

Trump will hold his final rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan – the same city he finished his 2016 and 2020 campaign schedules.

But in an emotional video posted to TikTok, the Grammy-winning artist slammed those who criticized her, after previously hitting out at Elon Musk for calling her a puppet 'who can’t even talk without being fed the words.'

Veteran strategist reveals major factor all pollsters are 'missing' as he predicts secret wave on eve of one of the closest presidential elections in history

Veteran political strategist Alex Castellanos has said pollsters are overlooking a huge shift in Republican voter registration – which could tip the scale toward Trump in the final days of the campaign.

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are locked in what polls indicate is a razor thin margin – including in the seven crucial swing states that could decide the election – and some are predicting the presidential race could unravel as one of the closest in US history.

Harris is set to appear in Pittsburgh on Election Eve along with pop star Katy Perry as Trump barnstorms through North Carolina, Pittsburgh, and Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Real Clear Polling average has Trump up 0.1 percent over Harris

The Real Clear Polling average has Donald Trump with a tiny lead over Harris nationally at 0.1 percent.

It’s a sign of the extremely tight race with just one day of the campaign to go.

Trump and Harris are heading to the crucial swing states of Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Michigan today to make their final pitches to voters.

Harris is rallying with big stars including Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Oprah Winfrey, Ricky Martin and more.

Every vote will matter in this election and the candidates are focused on getting their supporters out to the polls tomorrow.

A poll released Sunday by the New York Times had Trump trailing Harris in four crucial swing states: Nevada, Wisconsin, North Carolina and Georgia.

They were in a dead tie in Michigan and Pennsylvania and Trump captured a narrow lead over the VP in Arizona.
