Understanding American Political Support through Australian Eyes

There are only 28 days until the U.S. Presidential Election - and, according to most major polls, it is almost neck and neck between current Vice President Kamala Harris of the Democratic Party, and former Republican President Donald Trump. 

Whilst the polls don’t tell us much about who’s going to win, they do tell us where to look for clues - the seven important swing states, that are universally believed to be crucial to whoever will eventually take the White House.
