Trump vs. Harris: Latest updates, polls and analysis on Election Day 2024
American voters are heading to the polls on Election Day after Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump made their final pitches on Monday, the last full day of campaigning .
The Republican former president chose to close out his final rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, with personal attacks on Harris, former House speaker Nancy Pelosi and their fellow California Democrat Adam Schiff, as well as his own former White House chief of staff General John Kelly, who recenty labelled him a "fascist".
Trump, who received a last-minute endorsement from influential podcaster Joe Rogan , was late on stage and only finished speaking at 2.09am, looking exhausted.
The Democrat, drawning a sharp contrast , was joined in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, by Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey , Ricky Martin and The Roots while Katy Perry and Christina Aguilera supported her in Pittsburgh and Las Vegas, respectively.
Harris set a joyous tone and emphatically told her supporters for the final time: "We're not going back!"
The first in-person votes were cast in Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, at midnight – a tradition going back almost 65 years – with the town's six registered voters split evenly between the two candidates.
