Editor's note: This live blog will be updated as results pour in from the election.
Americans exchanged their opinions for “I Voted” stickers at voting locations across the country on Tuesday as the White House awaited news about the identity of its next occupant. Republican former President Donald Trump and Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris were neck-and-neck according to most national polls as of Tuesday morning.
Speaking from Grand Rapids, Michigan, on Monday, Trump accused the Biden administration of breaking America, and promised to fix it after he is elected. He challenged those who had questioned his cognitive abilities and said he'd done roughly 900 rallies without making a mistake. He went on to characterize his rallies as big and beautiful, adding that they were part of a political movement that gained momentum because voters recognized that the country is in trouble. He added that this rally would be his last.
Harris on Monday night ended her campaign on the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, made famous in the film Rocky. Flanked by celebrities like Oprah and Lady Gaga, Harris suggested her campaign shared some similarities to the movie's theme, which she said was all about underdogs who climb to victory. Harris went on to make her pitch for a new generation to take power to, in her view, move America forward.
