ArmInfo.The results of the US presidential elections will also affect the South Caucasus region. This was written on his Facebook page by expert and Americanist Suren Sargsyan. "Today, Americans will choose their 47th president. This choice will affect the most important global processes. Whether you like it or not, this will also affect our region," the expert noted.
He added that it is impossible to predict the election results; according to various polls, the difference in the candidates' ratings is between 1% and 2%. The same applies to the institution of voters. "By the way, the same picture is with the elections to Congress. In other words, according to dozens of polls, there is an equal fight with small differences. In seven swing states (where the candidates' votes are distributed evenly), the Republican candidate Donald Trump has an advantage of 0.9% - 48.6%, the Democratic candidate Kamala Harris - 47.7%. In general, according to dozens of polls, Trump and Harris have an equal pre-election rating - 48.5%. I cite average figures because, for example, the pro-Republican Fox News claims that Trump is winning by 2%, and the pro-Democratic CNN claims that Harris is winning by 1.5%. It is noteworthy that the rating of the current President Joe Biden is 40.7%, which is quite low and significantly hinders Harris," notes Suren Sargsyan.
According to him, the tension is so great that each candidate is literally fighting for every vote, especially in swing states. To do this, taking into account the ethnic composition of the local population, Harris, for example, is conducting a pro-Palestinian campaign in Michigan (because there is an Arab population there), and a pro-Israeli one in Pennsylvania. For his part, in the most problematic state - Pennsylvania, businessman Elon Musk continues to spend $ 1 million a day on a campaign in support of Trump. "In short, the name of the 47th President of the United States will be known in just a few hours," the expert wrote.
