◇Anchor> On the other hand, early voting is in full swing in competing states, and the pre-voting rate is on the rise compared to the turnout on the day of the presidential election. Which side will this benefit?

◆ Reporter> It's not clear yet. This is a poll released by the US NBC on the 15th local time. According to this poll, 52% of respondents said they would vote in advance, and 44% of voters said they would vote on the day of the presidential election.It is true that the higher the pre-voting rate, the more favorable it is for the Democratic candidate. In the survey, 57 percent of the respondents who expressed their intention to vote in advance said they would support Harris, and only about 40 percent said they would support former President Trump. However, one thing to pay attention to is the Harvard University Harry Spol poll. In local time, it was announced on the 14th. Trump led Harris by 1 percentage point in the early voting approval rating of contending states with 48 percent, which was only 47 percent. In competing states, both camps are encouraging early voting, so it will be difficult for Harris to win votes proportionally as much as the national early voting rate.

◇Anchor> I think we have to wait and see what the results will be. In such a super-confrontation situation, wouldn't this have an impact on who has collected and poured out his campaign funds?

◆ Reporter> That's right. First of all, Harris is leading the way in the total amount of campaign money. But Trump is supported by billionaires such as Elon Musk. Vice President Harris is pouring 500 billion won into political ads such as TV, radio and digital in seven competing states. Elon Musk, Trump's strong hand, provided an additional 100 billion won in the third quarter alone, and is also campaigning for 1 million participants to sign the amendment, including gun ownership, an agenda Trump is focusing on. Harris is focusing on political advertising because she has more ammunition, but Trump is actually close because he is good at delivering public messages using social media for the Musk effect.
