Voting will be held on November 5 in the United States. Republican candidate and former President Donald Trump, along with Democratic candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris, are holding final round rallies today. So far, more than 77 million Americans have voted by mail and in person during early voting.

Several battleground states, including Georgia and North Carolina, have previously broken voting records. A large number of mail-in ballots have been cast in Pennsylvania, which might create delay in the results of the presidential election nationwide. Whoever wins will be the 47th President of the United States.

It is important to note that Kamala Harris has connections to both India and Canada. Her mother was of Indian origin and settled in the United States. She also worked as a teacher in Canada.
