The presidential election in the United States is in full swing, and there is an intense race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. On Tuesday, the district of Cambria County in the state of Pennsylvania had problems with voting machines during the election, wrote WJAC News. The machines failed to scan ballots. As a temporary solution, some polling stations asked voters to put completed ballots in locked boxes so they could be scanned later. Both candidates have recently focused on winning voters in the crucial swing states of Pennsylvania, Michigan and North Carolina. The state of Pennsylvania has been particularly important, towering superbly at the top of the news website Axios’ list of where the presidential candidates have spent the most money on advertising.

The presidential election between Harris and Trump has engaged millions of Americans, and the country is now at a crossroads. Kamala Harris, who hopes to become America’s first female president, has run a campaign based on unity and progress. She has received support from prominent figures such as Oprah Winfrey, Beyoncé Knowles and former President Barack Obama. – I’m not here as a celebrity or a politician, I’m here as a mother, Beyoncé said when she came on stage during Kamala Harris’ campaign rally in Texas in October.

On the other side is Donald Trump, who is seeking a return to the White House. Trump has warned against what he calls “radical left politics” and has promised to restore “law and order”.
