Global National: Nov. 4, 2024 | Harris, Trump court undecided voters as US election nears end
Months of campaigning in the U.S. presidential election is coming to a close and both parties know half the country will be unhappy — even angry — at the results. The two candidates spent today, the last day before the vote, in a marathon of duelling rallies. Kamala Harris has been laser focused on the must-win state of Pennsylvania, while Donald Trump courted undecided voters in three different states. Global’s Jackson Proskow reports from Washington, D.C. In Pennsylvania there are signs Latino voters are leaning toward Kamala Harris, and away from Donald Trump, because of the derogatory comments made about Puerto Rico at one of his rallies. Neetu Garcha reports from Allentown, Pa. Donald Trump won in 2016 in part because of support from evangelical Christians — in particular, white Christian nationalists. And he’s courted them again in this campaign. But now that he’s a convicted felon, and after so many lies and outrageous things he’s said, there are signs some of those once loyal to Trump are losing faith. Jeff Semple reports from Trump’s home state of Florida. Trump has repeatedly touted false claims of election fraud, frequently stating the 2020 election was stolen. He appears to be priming his base to reject the outcome of the 2024 election if he loses. Mike Armstrong reports from Lancaster, Pa., a county where Trump says election officials are already cheating. The Canadian government is introducing new rules to try to force the country’s oil and gas sector to drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions. They’re only draft regulations for now, but as David Akin explains, the plan is putting further strain on the federal government’s relationship with Alberta. With every U.S. presidential election, we are reminded that America is this Canada’s biggest trading partner. We have a stake in the outcome of this election, too. Trump has called for a minimum tariff on all imports into the U.S. Global’s Dawna Friesen spoke to Kirsten Hillman, Canada’s ambassador to the U.S., about the impact this policy could have. Tributes are pouring in from across Canada for a man who dedicated his life to championing Indigenous rights. Murray Sinclair was Manitoba’s first Indigenous judge and a former senator. He was also chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. As Heather Yourex-West reports, he died this morning surrounded by family.
