Joe Biden is ahead of Donald Trump in approval ratings but in internet search, the incumbent Republican US President has a clear lead over his Democratic opponent.
Among the top reasons for interest in the US President is a meeting between popular American rapper Lil Wayne and other rappers and Trump after the recent racial attacks in the United States. Racism is one of the hot topics in this election, and rappers supporting US President’s policies has turned the attention of many.
Meanwhile in-person voting has begun in some parts of the United States. Voters were urged to vote early through mail-in ballots, to avoid queues amid the coronavirus pandemic. More than 99.5 million early votes have been cast so far. Additionally, about 28.2 million mail ballots are yet to be returned to polling authorities. As a result, over 100 million votes would have been cast and recorded even before the Election Day.
As the election day kickstarted, the Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris urged for in person voting by saying “ mask up and find your polling place”.
