After Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen, the parade of stars continues alongside Kamala Harris with support from Beyoncé expected at a rally in Texas this Friday. Donald Trump continues to divert the male electorate, particularly African-American and Latino, from the Democratic camp. The essentials Live Donald Trump reportedly praised some of the actions of German dictator Adolf Hitler and believes the founder of Nazism “did good things,” according to statements made by his former White House chief of staff John Kelly to The Atlantic. The Republican presidential candidate firmly denied these comments on Thursday: “No, I never said that. I would never say that. He's a rag that makes up stories. He's already said that.” done in the past. Just before the election. It's a sinking magazine,” Donald Trump said. “We don't need four years of a wannabe king, a wannabe dictator,” Barack Obama said on stage at Kamala Harris' rally in Atlanta, Georgia, Thursday night, saying the Republican candidate was always trying to “sell something” and that he only cared about “his ego, his money, his status.” A speech designed to highlight Kamala Harris, whom the former US president elected in 2008 and 2012 considers “ready for the job”: “If you “elect Kamala Harris… she will focus on you”. The two presidential candidates are heading to Texas this Friday, October 25, but they will opt for very different strategies. Donald Trump is responding to an invitation from Joe Rogan's podcast, the host of the most popular podcast in the United States, but followed mainly by men. The Republican candidate is continuing his logic of convincing the male electorate in this election that pits him against a woman. Kamala Harris will give a speech to women by mentioning the right to abortion, the consequences of the ban and the poor medical care of women in general. Kamala Harris continues to be supported by Barack Obama during her latest rallies and the duo has re-appropriated the slogan “Yes we can” to mobilize the electorate less than 10 days before the presidential election. But the vice-president is also counting on the support of a host of stars: Bruce Springsteen, Spike Lee and Samuel L. Jackson were present at Thursday's rally in Georgia, one of the highly coveted swing states. And this parade of stars should end in apotheosis this Friday with the presence of Beyoncé expected at a meeting in Texas, another important swing state. The support of the American star is rare enough to be underlined. The Democratic candidate will be able to count on the precious support of singer Beyoncé this Friday. From Houston, her hometown, the icon, whose song Freedom has become the anthem of Kamala Harris' campaign, will take to the stage to support her a few days before the end of the campaign. Yesterday, we already mentioned the arrival of Bruce Springsteen at another Kamala Harris rally, who is counting on her notoriety of these different personalities to convince the last undecided while the match against Donald Trump promises to be more than tight. In a rather amusing video posted on social media, former President Barack Obama shows how easy it is to vote by mail. After preparing his envelope, the former White House tenant gets out of his car in the middle of the street in Chicago, under the amused gaze of passers-by, and goes himself on foot to the post office box where he casts his carefully wrapped ballot. In these final days of the campaign, calls are multiplying in the different camps to invite Americans to vote early in the 2024 presidential election.

The American presidential election will take place on November 5, 2024 and is mainly between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris, despite the presence of a few other minor candidates in the race for the White House. The election promises to be particularly tight this year according to the various national polls or those conducted in each state. In the United States, it is the results of the state-by-state ballot that are decisive for the outcome of the election.
Each of the 50 states in the country represents a certain number of electors, the more populated the state, the greater the number of electors. It is ultimately these electors who vote for the future president of the United States. But the electors are not distributed to the Republican and Democratic camps proportionally to the results of the election, they all go to one and the same party: the one that obtained the highest score. To hope to win the presidential election, candidates must therefore win the ballot in as many states as possible to obtain the most electors possible. It is necessary to win 270 electors to be assured of victory.
The outcome of the election is already known in most American states that have very deep-rooted electoral habits: the territories on the east and west coasts are usually very progressive like California or New York and vote for the Democratic camp, those in the Midwest are rather conservative and mainly support the Republican party. But there are a handful of states, called swing states, which from one election to the next can swing from one camp to another. These are the states that decide the outcome of the election: Arizona, North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
