The all-time ultra-close U.S. presidential election is exactly a month away.

Vice President Harris and former President Trump are gathering troops to target the middle class around competing states.

Harris lashes out at Trump's disapproval of presidential election and appeals for early voting

Former President Trump visited the scene of the assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, the largest state in the world, to highlight his strong leadership image.

Let's talk about the U.S. presidential election situation in detail with international reporter Lee Seung-yoon.

First of all, should we look at the recent national and competitive polls to understand the current state of the U.S. presidential election?

[Reporter]
The national polls are consistently ahead of Vice President Harris.

Shall we look at the graphic and talk about it?

According to a British Economist poll, Harris led by 3 percentage points with 48% of Vice President Harris and 45% of former President Trump.

When asked who would win the presidential election, the gap was wider by 5 percentage points.

In the NPR and PBS poll conducted from the 27th of last month to the 1st of this month, Vice President Harris led by 2 percentage points.

However, in the contending states, Harris led by 2 to 3 percentage points in Rust Belt, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania in the New York Times poll.

However, in Sun Belt Georgia, North Carolina and Arizona, Trump won by one or two percentage points and tied in Nevada.

A survey by another pollster, Trafalgar Group, showed Trump narrowly ahead in Rust Belt contention states.

Within the margin of error, Trump led Michigan by 2.2 percentage points and Wisconsin by 1.1 percentage points.

It's still difficult to predict the game because the competition is still so narrow.

Former President Trump visited Butler, Pennsylvania, the largest rival state where the first assassination attempt was held on the 5th local time, and campaigned again, right?

What kind of strategy is it?

[Reporter]
You have to win here to get into the White House.

In Pennsylvania, the largest state in the competition, he took the lead a month before the presidential election.

During the campaign in Butler, Pennsylvania, where the first assassination attempt took place, former President Trump showed a dramatic heroism by holding his two fists and opening his arms to fight even in the blood in the upper right ear of former President Trump.

Whether it's a terrorist threat against Iran or two assassination attempts, they visit the site of the assassination and highlight their strong leadership image with a large outdoor campaign.

And that's what we're trying to do to win over Pennsylvania voters and moderate voters.

Let's listen to it for ourselves.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk, a former University of Pennsylvania Uppen and a strong Trump supporter with deep ties to Pennsylvania, participated in the campaign.

Recently, his wife, Melania, has also published a memoir and advocated for abortion rights, and since it's a month away, volunteers are stepping up.

Vice President Harris is also gathering reinforcements. What strategic steps are you taking?

[Reporter]
Former President Obama, who is still influential in the Democratic Party and young people, will campaign for Pennsylvania, a key rival state, from the 10th local time.

President Obama won Pennsylvania when he won the presidential election.

A string of Trump opponents in the Republican Party, including Representative Liz Cheney, daughter of Republican orthodox conservative Vice President Dick Cheney, and the son of the late Republican presidential candidate McCain, are helping Harris.

Harris is targeting moderate voters against the backdrop of such a strong Democratic Party, while encouraging early voting in Michigan, which must be won.

Presidential voting days are not a public holiday in the United States, so many Democratic supporters or young people need to vote in advance in Harris' favor, and Republican supporters have higher turnout and Democratic supporters have relatively lower turnout, so the higher the overall turnout, the better in Harris' favor.

In fact, even though there has been a COVID-19 outbreak, early voting rates continue to rise, forcing Vice President Harris or former President Trump to pay close attention.

However, Harris recently had bad news at home and abroad.

Hurricane hurling was a lot of damage in Gyeonggi Province, right?

[Reporter]
Hurricane Hurlin, the worst-hit state since Katrina in 2005, hit North Carolina and Georgia, putting a strain on Harris.

Harris has canceled campaigns in Pennsylvania, a state where she competes for vice president, visited North Carolina, Georgia, to comfort victims and provide $100 million in emergency recovery aid to soothe public sentiment, but it is also regrettable for Harris that early voting in favor of Harris is a setback in Georgia, North Carolina.

[Anchor]
The escalating Middle East conflict can't work in Vice President Harris' favor, can it?

[Reporter]
Trump is tightening the reins of the offensive.

If Harris becomes president, the world will burn down, that is, World War III will happen, and he tried to plant a weak image of a leader.

Harris immediately condemned Iran and sided with Israel when Iran fired 180 missiles at Israel, and the problem is that Arab Americans who were friendly to the Democratic Party are more supportive of Trump and the number of Democratic Leave votes is increasing, according to the poll.

According to the Arab American Research Institute poll, 46% of Arab Americans who are willing to vote support Trump, compared to only 42% of Harris.

I wonder if this is the case, but if Israel retaliates against Iranian nuclear facilities or oil facilities before the presidential election despite President Biden's dissuasion, it will hit Harris hard.

There may be many negative effects, but international oil prices were $60 per barrel before Iran retaliated, but they jumped 10% in a week.

As international oil prices soar, there is a high possibility that prices barely caught will soar, which will lead to a rapid deterioration in the American economy.

Former President Trump, on the other hand, seems to be re-imposed on judicial risks.

The special prosecutor's team countered that attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election could not be subject to criminal immunity, right?

[Reporter]
U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith's team has released a new report on then-President Trump's attempt to overturn the presidential election in 2020. In the

report, the independent counsel team stressed that President Trump relied on crime to maintain his power, including Trump's pressure on then-Vice President Pence not to publicly certify the results of the presidential election, which directly refuted Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts's judgment in July that it constitutes a public act and is subject to immunity.

In response, former President Trump said, "The Justice Department interfered in the election," and claimed, "The report is fraudulent."

That's a boon for Vice President Harris.

[Reporter]
On the 3rd, Vice President Harris went to Ripon, Wisconsin's Republican birthplace, which is a strong Democratic region, to campaign and criticized Trump's denial of the presidential election results and incitement of the January 6 Capitol riot, encouragingly saying that Trump should not be president.

Let's hear the related remarks firsthand.

Are there any actual signs of disobeying the presidential election?

[Reporter]
According to a New York Times report, there have been more than 90 lawsuits related to the presidential election in Republican-related organizations this year.

The number is three times higher than in the 2020 presidential election, and it is mainly focused on creating stricter mail-in voting requirements.

As a result, some analysts say that the government may lay the groundwork for the presidential election's disobedience in case the result is a result of a difference of around 1 percentage point in votes.

In order to prevent a repeat of the January 6 Capitol riot during the last presidential election, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security made it clear that it would not repeat the nightmare of that time by strengthening public power by designating the January 6 election vote counting and certification event in the Federal Assembly as a special security event.

After all, it's about who catches Pennsylvania or who catches more moderate votes, but what other variables could there be in the rest of the month?

[Reporter]
Paying attention to the economy of the American people.

Harris is relieved for now as employment growth in September topped market expectations of 150,000 and shook off concerns about a downturn in the U.S. economy.

On Harris' strength in legalizing the nationwide abortion rights, Trump left-clicked to say he opposes the nationwide abortion ban for the first time, and Melania woman says she firmly supports the recognition of abortion rights

An NPR poll released on the 3rd local time shows how it will affect Trump, who is nearly 20% behind women.

Every year when the presidential election is held, a large-scale revelation war that has appeared in October at the end of the election may break out.

In 2016, a recording of former President Trump's sex scandal was released, and in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election, data on the sensational personal life of then-Democratic presidential candidate Biden's second son Hunter was leaked.

There is still a possibility of a surprise in October, an unexpected variable.
