WASHINGTON – US President Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Joe Biden are preparing their closing arguments to the American public, as nearly 60 million people have already voted. According to the US Elections Project, voters have cast 42.6% of the total votes counted in the 2016 general election nationally. And with nine days to go until November 3, both candidates are heavily invested in the swing states. Trump traveled to three different states on Saturday: Ohio, Wisconsin and North Carolina – states that he won in 2016 and are essential for his reelection chances. On the other hand, Biden held a couple of events in Pennsylvania, which is considered the single likeliest tipping point of the election. The events showcased the fundamental differences in their world view about the coronavirus pandemic. While Trump held his trademark Make America Great Again rallies with thousands of attendees, Biden had two “drive-in” rallies with smaller audiences. The Democratic challenger for the presidency is trying to keep COVID-19 as the top issue for his campaign as US cases reached a record high over the weekend. He slammed the Trump administration’s response for the pandemic and anticipated a “dark winter” coming ahead. “Very inspiring guy,” Trump reacted sarcastically about Biden’s message. “We’re rounding the turn. We’re doing great; our numbers are incredible.
