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 closet 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.

Trump rises again on betting markets after Iowa poll shock
Donald Trump is rising again on betting markets after his odds tanked in the wake of a shock poll.
A Des Moines Register poll, released over the weekend, showed him down three points in Iowa, a traditionally conservative state.
It led to Trump’s odds on betting and prediction markets plummeting.
His lead over Kamala Harris on betting site Polymarket sank to seven points at the weekend, but on Monday morning it had risen to 18 points.
On the Kalshi betting market, where Harris briefly overtook Trump at the weekend, Trump on Monday soared to an 11-point lead.

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.
But two days before Election Day, she has changed her tune. Her team said it’s part of an effort to end her campaign on a ‘fully positive’ note.

Trump and Harris tie at 49 percent in Wisconsin and 48 percent in Nevada.
Harris is only up by two points in Michigan.
The results are all well within the margin of error with less than 48 hours to go until the first polls close in the U.S.

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.

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.

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.
