Voting for the US presidential election has officially begun. The long-awaited day began with voting in the states of New York, New Jersey and Virginia from 6 a.m. local time on Tuesday.
Current President Donald Trump is desperate to stay in power for another four years in his second term, but Democratic candidate Joe Biden has called on Americans to restore democracy in the country.
Elections in the United States are more divided and angry than at any time since the Vietnam War in 1980. Many have also expressed concern that Donald Trump could provoke tensions by contesting the election results.
Until the country’s elections, 8-year-old Joe Biden leads all opinion polls. He says America needs to get its soul back. Biden also said new leadership was needed to tackle the coronavirus epidemic, which has claimed more than 231,000 lives.
“I have the feeling that we have come together for the great victory tomorrow,” said Joe Biden, referring to the presidential election as a “fight of the soul” for America. It’s time for Donald Trump to pack his bags and go home.
The voting began at 8 am local time in the states of New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Connecticut and Maine, in the eastern United States, the French news agency AFP reported. But the nation’s first polling station opened to voters at midnight in Dixville Notch and Millfield, New Hampshire.
Traditionally, the first vote took place at midnight in Dixville, on the Canadian border, with 12 residents. Joe Biden won one of the city’s two polling stations and Donald Trump won the other. Residents of the city have been voting for the presidency since the 1980s.
Many political analysts fear that post-election violence could break out. Stores and other establishments in several states, including Washington DC, New York and North Carolina, have been closed for fear of violence.
In the last minute of the presidential election campaign, the two candidates tried to win the hearts of the country’s voters with a flurry of promises. Of the total 24 crore voters in the country, about 19 crore have registered to vote in this election. However, more than 100 million voters have already cast their votes in advance, according to the US Election Projects.
