On Sunday, US President Donald Trump intensified his electoral rallies ahead of Election Day, scheduled on Nov 3rd, calling on his supporters to take utmost care to prevent electoral fraud.
Trump is scheduled to hold five rallies on Sunday and seven rallies on Monday, on the last day of his election campaign.
The five rallies will be held in Michigan, Iowa, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida.
Trump told his supporters in Pennsylvania that his victory for a new presidential term would "save the American dream," and expressed his conviction in winning the election, saying: "After three days, a great red wave will come."
The president again raised the prospect of electoral fraud in the key swing state, as well as nationally, and warned that Democratic rival Joe Biden would trap the country in an “endless nightmare of lockdowns”.
Trump won Pennsylvania by a narrow margin in 2016, but polls show Biden ahead of Trump there.
Biden attended events alongside former President Barack Obama for the first time during the campaign season. The two visited the cities of Flint and Detroit the first of two days the campaign will spend in Michigan to garner voter support.
In Flint, Michigan, Biden focused on Trump’s handling of the pandemic. “We’re gonna beat this virus and get it under control and the first step to doing that is beating Donald Trump," Biden said.
National polls typically show Biden with a lead of 7 or 8 percentage points over Trump.
According to an average of major polls compiled by the website Real Clear Politics, Biden and Trump are virtually tied in the battleground states of Florida, Arizona, and North Carolina, while the president trails the former vice president in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
More than 92 million people had voted as of Saturday, well above half the overall 2016 vote count of 138.8 million, according to the U.S. Elections Project.
