As America votes in a tense election, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris secure wins in their respective party strongholds. Their victory paths, however, wind through several pivotal swing states that are too close to call.
Key issues drive voters: Harris's camp focuses on democracy's fate, while Trump hones in on immigration and inflation. Harris pledges cooperation with Republicans, whereas Trump proposes drastic changes, including widespread staff replacements and sweeping tariffs.
