Trump or Biden?

... America elects its president in an atmosphere of tension and division

Millions of American voters go to the polls today, Tuesday, to choose between President Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Joe Biden in a historic presidential election in America, amid intense tension and division.

Biden (77 years), former Vice President Barack Obama, hopes that he will finally be able to win the presidency in his third attempt.

For his part, Trump, the outgoing 74-year-old Republican president, fought an unprecedented campaign in terms of intensity, armed with his strong energy to go to voters on the street, with a new surprise, as happened in 2016.

"We will make history again," Trump said, addressing a large crowd of supporters Monday night, Tuesday, during a gathering in Grand Rapids, Michigan, expecting "another brilliant victory."

For his part, Biden said hours before that in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he launched his election campaign 18 months ago: "I have a feeling that we will achieve a huge victory together tomorrow," stressing that if he is elected president of the United States, he will seek "to control the emerging corona virus (Covid). -19) From the first day he assumed the keys to the White House. "

The spread of the Covid-19 epidemic has overwhelmed the election campaign, after killing more than 230,000 people in the United States, and has worsened in recent days.

Democrats, led by Joe Biden and Barack Obama, are intensifying their warnings of the consequences that could be devastating for democratic institutions if Trump wins a second term.

About a hundred million Americans voted in early voting, either in person or by mail, to avoid crowding at polling stations amid the spread of the Covid-19 epidemic.

For weeks, Donald Trump has criticized this option, saying it encourages fraud, but without providing evidence of that.
