Who wins the U.S Presidential Election?

By Mortz C. Ortigoza, MPA

Who wins between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump one day before the presidential D-Day in the United States?
Based on the pollster of ABC TV this morning, if Harris wins the votes of the Electoral College* in the states of Wisconsin (10), Michigan (15), and Pennsylvania (19), she gets the 270 electoral college's magic votes win.

If Trump gets the winning votes in the states of Nevada (6), Arizona (11), Georgia (16), and South Carolina (9) and anyone in the states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania he wins.
All the seven states I mentioned are the swing states or the seven battle grounds because the voters of the 43 states in America have already telegraphed their choice through scientific polls between Harris and Trump.

If Trump gets Pennsylvania 19 votes, for instance, he scored 287 votes -- more than enough, sanamagan!, for the 270 threshold to win the most powerful position in the world.
