Harris, Trump make final pitches on eve of election
Harris' video message came as she and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trumpcampaigned across Pennsylvania and other battleground states on Monday in the final, frantic day of the November 5 election.
Both candidates predicted their victory as they converged on Pennsylvania to urge supporters who have not yet cast their ballots to show up on Election Day.
This election is a tight race between Harris and Trump, with opinion polls showing that both the contenders are virtually even.
The winner may not be known for days after Tuesday's vote, though Trump has already signalled that he will attempt to fight any defeat, as he did in 2020.
