50 states will vote in the US election. These seven battlegrounds are the only ones that actually matter

There might be 50 states in the United States, but only seven of them really matter in this year's presidential election. The small handful of key battleground states are the only contests in the nation where both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are considered a genuine chance of winning, and thus hold the key to the presidential race. They certainly were in 2020 – while Joe Biden won the popular vote by about seven million ballots, it was winning Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin by less than a combined 45,000 votes that sent him to the White House. Pennsylvania Electoral votes: 19 2020 result: Biden win 2016 result: Trump win Arguably the most important of the battlegrounds thanks to its 19 electoral college votes (one fewer than what it had in ...

Biden says of Trump: ‘We gotta lock him up … politically’

US President Joe Biden told New Hampshire Democrats today that "we gotta lock him up", referring to former president Donald Trump, before quickly adding, "politically lock him up".

In a separate development, the UN peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon said an Israeli tank fired on its headquarters in the town of Naqoura, hitting an observation tower and wounding two peacekeepers, who we...

Kamala Harris’s pain-free campaign faces first crunch moment
