New Delhi. Voting took place on Tuesday to elect the 47th President of America. Before voting began in the morning, it was raining heavily in many states. According to Indian time, voting started around 7 pm on Tuesday, November 5 and will end at 4:30 am on Wednesday, November 6. Counting of votes will start immediately after this. Results will start coming by evening. However, it may take one to two days for all the results to come. Most of the surveys have shown a close contest.
There is a contest for the post of President between Republican Party’s Donald Trump and Democratic Party’s Indian-origin Kamala Devi Harris. Kamala Harris is the Vice President of America. This time the US Presidential election is going to make history. If Kamala Harris wins, she will be the first female President of America in its 236-year history. On the other hand, if Donald Trump wins, he will be the first President to make a comeback in 131 years. It is noteworthy that he was the President from 2017 to 2021. He defeated Hillary Clinton. He lost to Joe Biden in the elections held in November 2020. If he wins, he will get the credit of defeating two female candidates of the Democratic Party.
However, before the start of voting on Tuesday, both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris appealed to the American people to vote enthusiastically. By the way, more than eight crore people have already cast their votes in this election. According to an American media report, about 40 percent of the total voters in America have cast their vote through postal ballot or done early voting. Earlier, in the 2020 elections, 10 crore people had voted through postal ballot or done early voting. This happened due to the Corona epidemic. However, the highest early voting took place in North Carolina at 66 percent, while the lowest early voting at eight percent took place in Missouri.
Trump addressed his last rally in Michigan before the election. He said- My competition is not with Kamala Harris, but with the evil system of the Democratic Party. Trump asked his supporters to come out of their homes and vote. According to a report, counting of votes has also started in the US presidential election. In Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, both the leading Democratic and Republican candidates received three votes each. Voting began at night in Dixville Notch. Only six votes were cast there. The election results came just 12 minutes after the voting started. The most interesting thing is that four out of these six voters were registered voters of the Republican Party. But one of them voted for Kamala Harris of the Democratic Party.
