Presidential election 2024 reside updates: Kamala Harris takes lead over Trump in 4 swing states and in Iowa ballot

Donald Trump is up just nine points over Kamala Harris in an average of the betting markets with two days to go to the election.

His odds have tanked significantly from his peak at nearly 29 points over the vice president just a few weeks ago.

Trump is currently at 53.8 percent to Harris’ 44.8 percent.

It’s a sign that Harris is increasing her momentum going into Election Day.

A new New York Times/Siena poll also has her up in four swing states over Trump.

They are tied in Michigan and Pennsylvania as the race remains razor-thin.

According to the final New York Times/Siena poll before the election, Kamala Harris is getting a major momentum boost.

She’s ahead of Trump in the critical swing states of Wisconsin, Georgia, Nevada and North Carolina.

Trump takes the lead in one – Arizona – and they are tied in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

Although the VP is up narrowly, within the margin of error, in many of the swing states the poll notes that her standing in the Electoral College hasn’t ‘necessarily improved.’

The race is going to come down to the wire, and turnout, in what could be the closest election in U.S. history.

Kamala Harris is seeing a last-minute surge in momentum over Donald Trump in the final days of one of the closest presidential elections in history.

The vice president was given a surprise jolt on Saturday night with a poll showing she is ahead in the reliably Republican state of Iowa, while DailyMail.com’s election forecast shows her gaining on the 78-year-old former president.

In what could be one of closest elections in U.S. history, the difference between the candidates could not be more stark.

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris have laid out two visions for America that are poles apart during the unprecedented 2024 campaign for the White House.

The rivals have each painted one another as extreme. They both warn their opponent will be a disaster for America.

It means that on November 5 there is a stark choice when it comes to the economy, foreign policy, immigration, crime, abortion and taxes.

Whether they will be able to implement their wish list depends on a number of factors, including which party controls Congress.

But their grand plans are a crucial indicator in what four years of a Trump or Harris administration would look like.

DailyMail.com has put together a guide to show where the candidates stand on a number of crucial policies that matter most to American voters.

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are tied in the final Emerson College poll before Election Day.

The national poll has both candidates on 49 percent.

One percent support a third-party candidate and one percent are undecided.

Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling said:

The final Emerson College poll of the national popular vote, which doesn’t account for the Electoral College, points to an incredibly close race.

The gender divide is stark, with women favoring Harris by 12 points and men supporting Trump by the same margin.

Donald Trump called himself the ‘father of fertilization’ and bragged about his vigorous campaigning schedule in one of his final pleas to voters to give him a second term.

In front of thousands of supporters in the swing state of North Carolina, Trump tried to cut his rally short at 30 minutes but was encouraged by the crowd to finish off his third rally of the day in his type long-form style.

Trump claimed to be a staunch defender of access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) as Democrats say he wants to take away the treatment because some more radical pro-life views believe destroying fertilized embryos is a form of abortion.

Angry viewers noticed how Kamala Harris‘ SNL skit appeared to be eerily similar to one in which Donald Trump took part in while campaigning for president in 2015.

Harris could be seen talking to herself as she made a surprise appearance on Saturday night as she sat in front of a mirror, speaking with actress Maya Rudolph who was portraying the Democratic presidential candidate.

But viewers were quick to note how the sketch was strikingly similar to one performed nine years earlier by Trump.

Donald Trump has admitted he was ‘so disappointed’ to see Julia Roberts take part in a pro-Kamala Harris advert ahead of the election, saying she will ‘look back and cringe.’

In response, Trump said: ‘I’m so disappointed at Julia Roberts because I love… she’s going to look back at that and she’s going to cringe.’

Kamala Harris was blasted for using her ‘fake accent’ during her surprise appearance on SNL on Saturday night.

The VP has increasingly faced accusations of using a ‘fake accent’ in recent weeks, but with only days until the 2024 presidential election, she can’t afford to lose any support, especially among black and younger voters both key to any victory.

‘Kamala Harris spent three hours rehearsing for this cringe fest on SNL. Complete with the fake black accent. This is a tough watch. Good Lord,’ one poster wrote.

Republicans are outpacing Democrats in the crucial swing state by 44,500 votes.

That’s a good sign for Trump, who needs all the momentum he can get with just two days until the election.

In a new NYT/Siena poll, Trump is trailing Kamala Harris in Nevada by three points.

Business is booming at the world’s largest wholesale market in Yiwu, China, where retailers hunt for low-cost items to fill their shelves.

The city’s international trade center is a sprawling network of 70,000 stalls spread across 12 floors.

But it is not just traders who are watching closely – political observers have their eyes trained on a phenomenon they call the ‘Yiwu Index’.

The theory goes that how well a U.S. political candidate’s replica merchandise is selling in Yiwu, the more chance they have in the upcoming election.

Notably, the ‘Yiwu Index’ was a better predictor of Donald Trump’s win in 2016 than pollsters, who were sure throughout the campaign that Hillary Clinton would be the victor.

The vice president laughed throughout her skit with Maya Rudolph on Saturday’s episode, putting on a similarly giggle-filled performance to Clinton in 2008 and 2016.

At one point, Harris even repeated a joke from Clinton’s sketch opposite Amy Poehler, as she asked Rudolph: ‘I don’t really laugh like that do I?’
