Final countdown: Voters in these battleground states will decide who wins the presidency

The presidential contest between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris is expected to be a close one, with strategists on both sides of the aisle saying the result will likely hinge on voter turnout.

In 2016, Trump won by squeezing out just enough votes in key Electoral College states over Democratic rival Hillary Clinton, with the race being decided by about 77,000 votes. Then, in 2020, President Joe Biden eked out a victory over Trump so close that it took days to call.
