2024 US Presidential Election: A Fierce Contest
Voting for the 2024 US presidential election will take place on November 5. Incumbent Democratic Vice President Harris and Wentz will face Republican presidential candidates Trump and Vance to become Taiwan’s 6th, first female president in history? Or will Trump, who participated in the election for the third time, be able to return to the White House as he wishes?
This year’s US election has been fiercely contested, and a dramatic turn came in July when the Democratic Party originally ran for incumbent President Biden’s re-election, but his disastrous debates in June and Trump survived an assassination attempt. And after surviving the assassination attempt, his momentum grew, forcing Biden to withdraw his candidacy and replace him with incumbent Vice President Harris Ginnley.
According to a poll by the “True Clear Politics” website, Harris’s support continued to grow after he took office, and he overtook Trump on August 5, and in late October, the tide turned again when he overtook Jinli, but the margin between the two was narrow and the election remains tense.
Because the US presidential election uses the “electoral college system”, the person who receives more than 270 electoral votes wins the election.
How close the vote count between Harris and Trump is in swing states will also affect the timing of election results, with Georgia and North Carolina likely to be the fastest of the seven swing states, according to past voting records. If Trump gains in swing states in the South, Harris will have to rely on three “blue wall states” where vote counts are slow, such as Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, to win over voters who have to wait for the final results.
