The American political scene is witnessing strong momentum as the presidential election approaches, with former President Barack Obama emerging as a key supporter of Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.

In a passionate speech delivered in Tucson, Arizona, Obama warned of a potential return to the "arrogance, threat, and division" that characterized Donald Trump's rule, calling on voters to support Harris.

The circle of participants in election campaigns is expanding, with billionaire Elon Musk standing in Trump's camp, while Obama and his wife Michelle, who still enjoy great popularity, are preparing for a tour of swing states next week, including Georgia and Michigan.

The latest opinion polls reveal intense competition in key swing states, with slight differences between candidates in Pennsylvania, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Georgia.

A clear gender gap has emerged, with Trump leading among men by 56% compared to 42% for Harris, while Harris excels among women by 55% compared to 41% for Trump.

This disparity in gender preferences reflects a major challenge for the candidates, which may push them to intensify their efforts to appeal to less supportive groups. The fierce competition in swing states also indicates that the election result may be determined by a slim margin, emphasizing the importance of every vote.

Amid this charged atmosphere, Obama continues his campaign supporting Harris, leveraging his popularity and influence on social media. He delivered a speech in Las Vegas supporting Harris and her running mate Tim Waltz, emphasizing the need to avoid what he described as "an older, crazier, unhinged Trump."

As Election Day approaches, it appears that the electoral battle will remain intense until the last moments, with both sides focusing on the swing states that could determine the outcome of the election.
