US Elections 2024: It’s voting day in the United States of America. After a bitter election campaign, the voters will either make Kamala Harris the first woman president in the country’s history or deliver Donald Trump a second non-consecutive stint in the Oval office.
As polling stations open nationwide on Election Day, Democratic vice president Harris, 60, and Republican former president Trump, 78, are dead-even in the tightest and most volatile White House race of modern times.
Donald Trump said he would be prepared to concede defeat after Tuesday’s vote “if it’s a fair election”, while again raising concerns about the use of electronic voting machines. Trump, however, said he feels “very confident” about winning back the White House, after casting his Election Day ballot in Florida in one of the most contentious US elections in decades.

A final outcome may not be known for several days if the results are as close as the polls suggest, adding to the tension in a deeply divided nation.
