Zeven staten als strijdtoneel om in de gaten te houden in 2024

By Jordi Bou

October 11, 2024 - About 240 million people are eligible to vote in this year’s U.S. election, but just a few thousand votes in key swing states are likely to decide whether Democrat Kamala Harris or Republican Donald Trump wins the White House.

The seven states won by fewer than 3 percentage points in 2020 are also likely to be close this November 5: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

The biggest prize in the seven swing states in this election is Pennsylvania, because it has the highest number of electoral college votes on offer and therefore makes it easier for the winner to hit the required 270 votes to become president.

At the moment, the latest data puts Harris on 48% and Trump on 47.2% – one of the smallest leads in the swing states.
