It is a neck and neck battle between Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump delivered their final campaign messages to Pennsylvania voters, each holding events in the state’s southeastern region at almost the same time. With the presidential campaign winding down, both candidates focused on Pennsylvania, a state seen as pivotal to securing victory. Pennsylvania is one of the crucial key swing states with 19 electoral votes. Nicknamed the Keystone State, Pennsylvania could in fact be the key to the White House.
Trump addressed a crowd in Reading, just 30 miles from Allentown, where Harris took the stage about half an hour later. Emphasizing the state’s importance, Trump remarked, “If we win Pennsylvania, we win the whole ball of wax. It’s over.”
Kamala Harris’ ancestral village gathers to pray for her success
A small South Indian village in Tamil Nadu, Thulasendrapuram, gathered to pray for Kamala Harris’ success against Donald Trump in US Presidential Elections 2024. As millions of Americans vote, Harris has people rooting for her from thousands of miles away in a village surrounded by rice paddies and coconut trees, where her mother’s family has ancestral ties. They talk about her at the local tea shop. Banners and billboards bearing her face are seen throughout the community.
“Our deity is a very powerful God. If we pray well to him, he will make her victorious,” said M. Natarajan, the temple priest that led the prayers in front of the image of Hindu deity Ayyanar, a form of Lord Shiva. “Our village ancestors’ granddaughter is running as a U.S. presidential candidate. Her victory will be happy news for every one of us,” Natarajan said.
Harris’ maternal grandfather was born in the village, about 350 kilometers (215 miles) from the southern coastal city of Chennai, more than 100 years ago. As an adult, he moved to Chennai, where he worked as a high-ranking government official until his retirement. Harris has never visited Thulasendrapuram and she has no living relatives in the village, but people here still venerate the family that made it big in the US
