"Trump's a little bit nervous" – are they lying?

US presidential elections are already tomorrow, so the candidates have scattered across the US federal states that will decide on the election results.

U.S. media write that it even happened that, for a short time, the planes of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump met on the runway of the airport in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Currently, both candidates for the next US President are tied in the race. All the polls show that the difference is minimal and that it will be an unusually close race. Because of all this, but also preparations for a few tense days in which the final outcome will not be known, the federal states have increased security measures.

A glass counting room was built in Fulton County, Georgia, and some states announced they had put the National Guard on alert. It is only part of the announcements of the security and order bodies that prepare for various scenarios.

This year, Republican candidate Donald Trump has flooded the courts with pre-election lawsuits, leaving nothing to chance, with claims that they are aimed at making sure there are no problems like the last time Trump claimed the election was rigged.

As CNN reported a few days ago, the Republicans have filed around 130 lawsuits, which, for one reason or another, are trying to block the right to vote.

Initiatives were also launched to encourage Republican voters to vote early, and it was reported that at least 66 million Americans, a third of all voters who voted in 2020, used early and postal voting this time.

The day before the election, both candidates plan to spend in Pennsylvania, which has the most electoral votes. On Saturday, both were in North Carolina, which the Trump team must preserve if they want to win the election.

A Democratic candidate has not won there since Barack Obama in 2008, AP reminds, but the difference has always been less than three percent.

The AP states that Trump's decision to visit her on Saturday and return there again on Sunday and Monday shows that Harris has an opportunity to change something there, according to the AP.

Also, Trump unexpectedly stopped by Virginia, which is traditionally democratically oriented, sending a message that he does not consider that state to be such a strong democratic fortress. Pennsylvania was also on Trump's schedule, and the Republican candidate was also scheduled to visit Georgia.

Harris was in Atlanta, Georgia on Saturday before heading to the North Carolina capital. On Sunday, she was scheduled to attend several rallies in Michigan, a state that leans Democratic, but her allies see her as vulnerable there.

Harris is having difficulty convincing the Arab diaspora there because of the war in Gaza, and Trump was also in Michigan on Friday, promising the Arab community there that he would end the wars in the Middle East.

Shocking news from "Trump's Iowa": Harris is leading in the poll

On Saturday, the news from Des Moines echoed that Iowa could once again be a "swing" federal state.

In the past two cycles, rural Iowa voted for Donald Trump, which is why it was not even mentioned in the context of "electoral fronts" this time.

However, in the very finish on Saturday, the reputable polling company Selzer & Co. published a poll according to which Kamala Harris leads slightly in that federal state. Women voters are largely responsible for the upheaval, it is claimed.

Polls from that state claim that Harris has a chance to get six electoral votes, and in the last one, Trump took 18 electoral votes from Biden. Trump's team is dismissing reports from Iowa, and his adviser Jason Mueller said other polls showed Trump with a "comfortable lead."

"There is one idiot poll in every cycle," Miller said. Donald Trump himself, meanwhile, passionately disputed the shocking Iowa poll, posting on his Truth Social network on Sunday that "no president has done more for farmers and the Great State of Iowa than Donald J. Trump."

"Actually, it's not even close! All the polls, except for the one heavily skewed toward the Democrats by a Trump hater, which turned out to be totally wrong last time, show me in a big lead. I love farmers, and they love me. And they trust me", Trump wrote.
