The gap is narrowing between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris in the polls carried out in July. The compilation of the latter gives the Republican with 48% of favorable votes, against 47% for the Democrat. But these national figures are less telling than the trends in each state. The American presidential election is an indirect ballot: American voters vote and elect great electors which are more or less numerous depending on the population rate of each state (the more inhabitants there are, the more there are large voters) and the latter vote for a candidate to be elected. the presidential one. When a state is won by Republicans or Democrats, all its seats are allocated to one and the same candidate, and it is this number of seats that counts to be elected. You must win at least 270.
If states vote historically and systematically for the same camp, other calls "Swing states" vary according to the elections and often determine the outcome of the vote: these are Texas (38 major voters), Florida (29), Pennsylvania (20), Ohio (18), Georgia (16), Michigan (16) North Carolina (15), Arizona (11), Wisconsin (10) and Iowa (6). These are the states that have many big voters that must be won. And so far, according to 270towin, Donald Trump is in the lead in most of them.
