The two candidates spent the past few days holding last-minute campaign rallies. Trump was in Fayetteville, N.C, Scranton, PA, Traverse City, Mich., and then Kenosha, Wis. while Biden held a drive-in rally in Ohio, and was joined by senator Kamala Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff in Pittsburgh, PA as well as Philadelphia.
According to CBS News, “as of Monday, 97 million Americans have already voted early, suggesting there will be record turnout at the polls this year.”
