America decides

The presidential candidates have done their bit. The campaigning, the shouting, the plea for votes is over, now, the people get to decide who will be the next President of the United States. Polls still show Democratic candidate Hilary Clinton ahead of Republican candidate Donald Trump but with such a slender lead that leaves this presidential race wide open and too close to call.

Mrs Clinton final day on the campaign trail saw her at a huge rally in swing state Pennsylvania, where she was joined by President Obama and rock stars Bruce Springsteen and Jon Bon Jovi.

She told supporters, “Tomorrow, we face a test of our time. None of us wants to wake up and think that we could have done more.”

Mr Trump, who also notched up thousands of air miles as he flew between the states likely to decide the election, repeated his message that the presidential vote is “rigged” and allegations that his rival is “corrupt”.

He told voters at a rally in Florida: “You have one magnificent chance to beat the corrupt system and deliver justice – do not let this opportunity slip away.”
