US Election 2024: The elections in the United States will begin on Tuesday (IST). The voters will decide the fate of candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. While there are a total of eight candidates in the US Presidential polls, Indian-origin Vice President and Democratic Party candidate Kamala Devi Harris and Republican Party candidate former President Donald Trump are the key candidates for US Election 2024.

Both Kamala and Trump has put in their best to sway the voters in their favour. Trump in a rally earlier, claimed that if elected, Harris would open the border, allowing an influx of migrants, gangs, and criminals into the country. Trump has also criticised Harris over her handling of the nation's economy. In his rally in North Carolina, Trump targeted Harris by saying that she "has no vision, no ideas, and no solutions," and that her only message is blaming him for various issues.

Trump had said, "Everything Kamala says is a lie--she has no vision, no ideas, and no solutions. All she can say is, 'Donald Trump did this, Donald Trump did that.'"

In Kamala Harris Election Campaign, Focus On Israel-Gaza War

Kamala Harris in her election campaigns has focused on ending the ongoing war in Gaza, bringing home hostages, and ensuring Israel's security and the Palestinian people's right to dignity and self-determination.

During her Michigan rally a day earlier, Harris said, "I want to say that this year has been difficult, given the scale of death and destruction in Gaza and the civilian casualties and displacement in Lebanon. As President, I will do everything in my power to end the war in Gaza, to bring home the hostages and the suffering in Gaza, ensure Israel is secure and ensure the Palestinian people can realise their right to dignity, freedom, security and self-determination."

She added, "We continue to work on diplomatic resolutions across the Israel-Lebanon border to protect civilians and provide lasting stability."
