American citizens are electing the 47th President of the United States of America today. The contenders are Donald Trump, for the Republicans, and Kamala Harris, for the Democrats.

The polls indicate marginal polls between candidates. In this vein, Trump and Harris have hired several law firms to deal with possible electoral disputes.

The first ballot box was opened - and has already closed - for the US election on Tuesday (5), in Dixville Notch, in the state of New Hampshire. There was a tie: three votes for Kamala Harris and three for Donald Trump.

Vice President and US Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris will spend election day at the White House, while her Republican opponent, Donald Trump, will be in Florida, both under tight police control.
