Which swing states could decide the US election?

Joe Biden is leading ​Donald Trump in the national polls for the presidential election, but that doesn’t guarantee ​the Democratic candidate victory. Hillary Clinton also had a clear lead over Trump in the polls for almost the entire 2016 campaign and ended up losing in the electoral college.
​Because the presidential ​voting system assigns each state a number of electoral college votes, which​ go to the state’s victor regardless of the​ margin of victory (with the exception of Nebraska and Maine), a handful of swing states will ​probably decide the election and be targeted heavily by campaigners. The Guardian’s Lauren Gambino examines how the race is developing in the areas that could decide the election

But Guardian, you keep telling us that Trump is losing badly in the polls but now it will be close?

[irawatt]

Crazy how much modern politics is about race.

'Truth over Lies' - now, where is my 10 % ? Anyone seen Hunter ?

As an american this is the stupidest thing that was ever formed. We should totally abandon electoral college system & let the people decide who they want to vote for.

What i like about guardian news is you are just informing and not trash talking about other candidate.

Am I the only one who thinks she's gonna start start crying or pass out any time?

[pitbull]

I think Biden will win and George will come second!

[seankeeney]

My guess is that the 2024 swing states will be Michigan, Pennsylvania, Texas, Georgia, Nevada, Maine, Texas, Porto Rico, Virginia, North Carolina, Arizona and Alaska.

The reporter is beautiful. I like the way she talks.

[shipwreckjs]

I cannot wait to watch the compilations of the political correspondents crying their eyes out come Wednesday.

"Truth over lies" - Joe Biden. Really Joe, lets just take a look at that laptop shall we.

To my fellow Brits, go and vote in this election, take a piece of paper into the local community centre, and if they refuse to accept it, protest, even then we probably have more chance of having our vote countedm than Hispanic texans, and postal vote Pennsylvanians, or inner city Minnesotamns,

Science over fiction. Except when it comes to gender!
