Trump, Biden rallying support in swing states -NHK WORLD-JAPAN 21 min ago
US President Donald Trump and his Democratic rival Joe Biden are rallying support in swing states as the presidential election campaign enters the final stretch.
Trump took to Twitter from early Tuesday morning to again allege that the Democratic Party may rig the election that is three weeks away.
The incumbent met his supporters on Monday in Florida in the first rally since he left hospital where he received treatment for coronavirus infection.
He is scheduled to visit swing states including Pennsylvania and North Carolina from Tuesday, and hold large gatherings at airports.
Biden held a rally in Florida on Tuesday and criticized Trump for his coronavirus responses.
The former vice president called Trump's handling of the new coronavirus pandemic "erratic." Biden said, "He's never been focused on what matters. He's never focused on you."
Biden plans to visit Pennsylvania this week.
US political news website Real Clear Politics says opinion polls show that the average support rate for Biden is 51.6 percent, while that for Trump stands at 41.6 percent.
