Highest security alert in history

Ahead of the election, states across the country have deployed unprecedented security measures to counter the threat of civil unrest, election interference and violence against election workers.

The states of Oregon, Washington and Nevada have mobilized the National Guard, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has set up a threat monitoring command center and security has been enhanced at nearly 100,000 polling places nationwide.

Runbeck Election Services, a company that provides election security technology , confirmed it has ordered about 1,000 panic buttons for election workers and facilities. The devices are neckbands or pocket-sized devices that connect to a cell phone to contact law enforcement in the event of an emergency.

In Arizona, where unrest and conspiracy theories about the 2020 election have taken place, the main ballot counting facility in Maricopa County has become a fortress with iron fences, barbed wire, armed guards and a SWAT team on the roof.

US officials also warn of threats from cyberspace and hackers, especially from abroad.

In Washington, DC, officials have warned of a “volatile, unpredictable security environment” in the days and possibly weeks after polls close. Many stores have begun to reinforce their storefronts in anticipation of possible unrest.

About 77 million voters have cast their ballots early.

Statistics show that in the 2024 US presidential election, about 77 million voters have voted early in most states since late September. Of which, North Carolina has more than 4.2 million voters voting early, marking a new record and surpassing the number recorded in 2020.

This year’s high early turnout also reflects a push by Republicans in the state and across the country to encourage early voting, a stark contrast to the 2020 election, when former President Donald Trump claimed, without evidence, that mail-in voting was rife with fraud.

The latest New York Times/Siena poll focuses on seven key states, dubbed “battleground states,” showing that candidate Kamala Harris is ahead in three states, including Nevada, North Carolina, Georgia, and Wisconsin, tied with Republican rival Donald Trump in Pennsylvania and Michigan, but Trump is ahead of Harris in Arizona.

The poll also showed that Ms. Harris has lost ground in a state that will determine the final outcome of this year's presidential election: Pennsylvania, a vast territory in the northeast of the United States, which has 19 electors out of the minimum 270 that either candidate must win to become the winner of the race to the White House. The results of the election poll in Pennsylvania on November 4 showed that Mr. Trump temporarily took a slim lead with a gap of 48.3% compared to 48% for Ms. Harris.
