Get ready, South Africa! The US elections are heating up with Kamala Harris and Donald Trump in a nail-biting battle for the presidency. Who's got the edge?

As the United States gears up for the highly anticipated elections on November 5, 2024, the political climate feels as charged as ever. With Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump vying for the top spot, Americans are faced with a choice that could shape the future of the nation. Al Jazeera sheds light on 20 maps that provide a comprehensive overview of the U.S. economy, demographics, geography, and key indicators that are pivotal in this election. Polls indicate that itโ€™s a neck-and-neck race, particularly in swing states such as Arizona and Georgia, which could potentially tip the scales.

In a surprising twist, recent polling data shows Harris leading Trump by a slim margin in Iowa, a state that has been pivotal in past elections. This newfound enthusiasm for Harris raises difficult questions for Trump, who has historically performed well in states like Iowa. Meanwhile, celebrated authors weigh in on this political turmoil with poignant reflections on national identity and the stakes at hand. As the political knives are sharpened, every voterโ€™s decision will carry considerable weight.

As we draw closer to election day, predictions abound, but uncertainty reigns supreme. The fragmented political landscape means that states prepare to count ballots under varying rules and timelines, adding another layer of complexity to this wildly unpredictable election. Harris and Trump are not only competing for votes; they are also mustering support from key demographics and focusing on voter turnout strategies, leaving no stone unturned in their campaign efforts.

As a cherry on top, the ANC in South Africa has also voiced its intention to collaborate with whoever emerges victorious in the U.S. elections. All eyes are on America as the world waits with bated breath to see if the stunning polls hold up and whether history will repeat itself once more. Did you know that the most common name for American presidents is James, with six presidents sharing this name? And in a fun fact, Iowa is known as the "Hawkeye State" and has a rich agricultural history, making it a significant player in presidential politics!
