Trump vows he will break into the Blue Wall as he zips around Virginia, North Carolina
Former President Trump campaigned in North Carolina and Virginia on Saturday, with just three days until the election.
Trump made stops in Gastonia, North Carolina, and Salem, Virginia, before returning to North Carolina for a rally in Greensboro.
“We’ve been making the rounds today. We’ve done a number of these. I don’t know how many people could do that. But you love it … it is like a love, It’s a crazy love we have for each other, it’s crazy. But I’m thrilled to be back in this great, beautiful place,” he said at his Greensboro rally.
Trump claimed at the rally that he will not lose North Carolina or Michigan.
“This is a very important state, and we have to get this up,” he said. “We have to get you out. We’re winning by a lot. But, you know, you can lose by a little. You know, when you’re winning by a lot, you can still lose by a little. And we can’t take a chance of losing the great state of North Carolina. We’re not going to lose the great state of Michigan.”
The former president also purported that the U.S. is an “occupied country.”
“The United States is now an occupied country … but it will soon be an occupied country no longer. On November 5th, 2024, it will be Liberation Day in America,” he said.
The campaign website of former President Trump published a memo about the Des Moines Register’s shocking poll published on Saturday, which claimed that Vice President Harris held a strong lead in Iowa.
The memo, which was written by RNC pollsters, concluded that the poll was a “clear outlier.”
“Emerson College, released today, far more closely reflects the state of the actual Iowa electorate and does so with far more transparency in their methodology,” the memo read.
“To their credit, the Emerson College poll has an R+4 party split (below 2020 exit polls at R+10), and a Trump +8 recalled 2020 vote margin that aligns with reported returns,” the experts explained. “Emerson shows Trump ahead of Harris 53-43 in their survey. In the outlier Des Moines Register poll, they claim Harris leads with seniors (age 65+) by 19 points (55-36). In 2020, President Trump carried seniors 54-45 over Biden according to CNN exit polls.”
Vice President Kamala Harris leads former President Donald Trump by three points in the final Des Moines Register-sponsored poll of Iowa three days before the election.
The shock poll showed a seven-point shift from Trump to Harris from September when he had a four-point lead over the vice president (47% to 43%) in the same poll.
“It’s hard for anybody to say they saw this coming,” pollster J. Ann Selzer, president of Selzer & Co., who conducted the poll, told the newspaper on Saturday. “She has clearly leaped into a leading position.”

Rust Belt autoworkers, traditionally a cornerstone of the blue voting base, are not casting their votes for Vice President Kamala Harris this time around, the founder of Auto Workers for Trump 2024 insisted.
Brian Pannebecker, founder of Auto Workers for Trump 2024, spoke to a roaring crowd of former President Trump at a rally in Warren, Michigan, on Friday – just days before the presidential election.
“We’re not voting for Kamala Harris… Don’t believe anything you see Shawn Fain talking about,” he said. “The autoworkers — UAW members — are voting for Donald Trump for president!”

A judge in Georgia on Saturday dismissed a Republican lawsuit that sought to block voters from hand-returning mail-in ballots in the state over the weekend.
The lawsuit centered around officials in Fulton County, a Democratic stronghold, opening normally closed country offices on Saturday and Sunday to allow voters to hand in their ballots.
Five other Democratic-leaning counties in the state also announced that county offices would be open over the weekend.

Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign posted a video message from actor Harrison Ford on Saturday.
“Look, I’ve been voting for 64 years. Never really wanted to talk about it very much,” Ford says in the video. “But when dozens of former members of the Trump administration are sounding alarms saying, ‘For God’s sake, don’t do this again,’ you have to pay attention. They’re telling us something important.”
The “Indiana Jones” star claimed that Harris would “protect your right to disagree with her about policies.”
“The other guy, he demands unquestioning loyalty since he wants revenge,” Ford said.
“I’m Harrison Ford. I’ve got one vote, same as anyone else, and I’m going to use it to move forward. I’m going to vote for Kamala Harris.”
Former President Trump promised to “keep men out of women’s sports,” during a rally in Salem, Virginia, on Saturday, and was then joined by seven female student swimmers.
“Last year, the radical left’s gender insanity arrived right here in Salem when a man was allowed to transfer onto the Roanoke College women’s swim team,” Trump said, causing boos in the audience.
“And I just met them backstage. They’re great swimmers. I didn’t notice a male on that particular team… I don’t understand what’s happening, but I didn’t see any males on that team, believe me,” he joked.
Trump commended the “brave” members of the swim team and called them up to the stage. One swimmer named Lily Mullens took the podium.
“Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have advocated for. and pushed for, this anti-woman sex-based discrimination to continue all over this country,” the student athlete said. “And point blank, it’s unfair. So I would like to thank you, President Trump, for standing with women and promising to protect the rights of all of us.”
The wife of Montreal Canadiens star goaltender Carey Price is calling out her critics after she announced her vote for former President Donald Trump on social media this week, adding that she has “reservations” about Vice President Kamala Harris becoming the first female President of the United States.
Angela Price held a Q&A session on her Instagram Stories on Friday, where she answered a range of questions spanning politics, health and her clothing brand. But a majority of questions were about her blunt admission that she had already voted for Trump in the upcoming election.
“Are you actually going to vote for Donald Trump,” one question read. “Already did,” she responded.

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James doubled down on his endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday, despite facing criticism on social media over accusations of posting an edited video using out-of-context soundbites from former President Donald Trump.
James, a longtime critic of Trump, addressed his endorsement video when speaking to the media following the Lakers’ 131-125 win over the Toronto Raptors on Friday night.
“I wanted to make sure it was seen, heard, and heard with force,” James said of his decision to share the video after his return to Cleveland on Wednesday.

Arab American Albert Abbas, a Michigan voter, said that fellow members of his community in the state are “flowing” to former President Donald Trump because they believe he can bring peace to the world. He expects a “seismic shift” towards the Republican candidate.
Abbas spoke with “Fox & Friends: Weekend” on Saturday about the former president’s appeal to Arab voters in the crucial swing state, where Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are neck and neck in polling just three days before the election.
“Arab Americans are flowing in the direction of the Trump campaign because of his, you know, words of tolerance, and love, and ending wars,” Abbas said.

Democratic 2024 presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris blasted former President Trump and praised young voters in what was likely her final campaign speech in Georgia.
Harris spoke to supporters in downtown Atlanta on Saturday, three days before voters across the country who haven’t already cast ballots head to the polls on Election Day.
“We have three days left – three days in one of the most consequential elections of our lifetime – and we still have work to do,” the vice president said.
She pivoted to attacking Trump just a few minutes into her roughly 22-minute speech.

Former Obama fundraiser Don Peebles contrasted Vice President Kamala Harris to the former president on Saturday, stating that Obama was inspiring and represented change in America, while Harris is just another status quo candidate.
The real estate entrepreneur also made a prediction about Trump and the 2024 race: “If this is a race about policy, he’s going to win hands down…. I see him winning. I look at all these numbers and I see him winning.”
Peebles made the comments on Fox News “Neil Cavuto Live” on Saturday, explaining how Harris just doesn’t have the same it factor as that made the 44th president one of the most popular political figures in modern American history.

President Biden made a strange joke about “smacking” former President Trump from behind while addressing supporters in Scranton, Pennsylvania on Saturday.
Speaking at a Carpenters Local 445 Union event, at around 1:30 p.m., Biden began criticizing Trump and other Republican politicians.
“There’s one more thing Trump and his Republican friends want to do,” Biden said. “They want another giant tax cut for the wealthy.”
“Now, I know some of you guys are tempted to think it’s macho…I’ll tell you what, man. When I was in Scranton, we used to have a little trouble going down the plot once in a while,” Biden continued, drawing laughs from the crowd.
“But I’m serious. These are the kind of guys [sic] you’d like to smack in the a–,” the president added, to loud hollering in the audience.
Democratic insiders and strategists heading into the final hours of the election are expressing confidence that Vice President Kamala Harris will defeat former President Donald Trump on Tuesday at the ballot box.
“Nauseously optimistic,” is how Democrats described themselves to New York magazine as the clock continues ticking for the final 100 hours of the election cycle.
Trump and Harris both delivered what were their respective closing arguments earlier this week, with Trump addressing massive crowds at a historic rally at Madison Square Garden, and Harris delivering her final pitch in the nation’s capital Tuesday at the Ellipse, located just south of the White House and north of the National Mall.

Hollywood insiders are expressing dread over Tuesday’s presidential election because it’s so close.
According to a new report from Hollywood outlet Deadline, the fact that former President Trump has a good shot at re-taking the White House is driving serious anxiety in Hollywood circles.
“Fascism is at the door, and her campaign isn’t fighting back enough, aren’t breaking through,” a PR executive told the outlet, fretting that the Harris campaign hasn’t taken a clear lead.

Vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance and Donald Trump Jr. will make a campaign stop on Sunday in New Hampshire, a source tells Fox News.
According to the source, the event will take place at around 7 p.m. local time. New Hampshire, though considered a swing state, tends to lean blue in presidential elections.
The move to visit New Hampshire comes in the wake of former President Trump stopping in New Mexico on Thursday and Virginia on Saturday. Both states lean blue.
On Friday, former President Bill Clinton made stops in the New Hampshire cities of Portsmouth and Nashua to speak with voters and Harris campaign staff.
“Your family needs you. My family needs you,” the Democrat said. “America needs you. Let’s go win these races.”
Fox News Digital’s Paul Steinhauser contributed to this update.
Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign posted a new ad called “Brighter Future” on Saturday, showing the Democratic candidate emphasizing a message that focuses on unity.
The ad paints Harris as a candidate who seeks to bring Americans together rather than divide. The video comes days after President Biden remarked that Trump supporters are “garbage,” following an widely-condemned joke about Puerto Rico at the Republican candidate’s MSG rally.
“The vast majority of people in our country have so much more in common than what separates them,” Harris says in the video. “Good people, hardworking people. We see in our fellow Americans neighbors, not enemies.”
“We believe in each other, we believe in our country. We’re not falling for these folks who are trying to divide us.”
In the ad, the former California senator also promised to represent all Americans if elected.
“I pledge to seek common sense solutions to make your life better,” Harris says in the video. “And I pledge to be a President for all Americans.”
A group of Somali-American and Muslim leaders in Minnesota endorsed former President Trump for re-election on Saturday at the Minnesota state capitol.
At a press conference, Imams and other leaders highlighted concerns over the economy and inflation, public safety and family values as reasons for supporting the Republican ticket.
“All these people in this room were former Democrats, we were diehard supporters. Republicans had no opportunity, no room to come and talk to us because we were loyal to the Democratic Party, but that party is no longer loyal to us,” said Abshir Omar, a Somali-American refugee who previously worked on Independent Sen. Bernie Sander’s 2020 presidential campaign.
“The Democratic Party is now the party of war. It’s the party of the billionaires. It’s the party of silencing free speech,” he said.
The election has divided the Somali community in Minnesota, a traditionally Democratic constituency. Though some community leaders endorsed Trump on Saturday, Vice President Harris picked up the endorsement of a coalition of 35 religious leaders and scholars in St. Paul last month, Mshale reported.
“Donald Trump is actively promoting division and hatred, from his racist Muslim travel ban to his extremist Project 2025 plan,” said Imam Mohamed Mukhtar, one of the leaders. “We cannot stand by while he threatens our brothers and sisters in Palestine and fuels Islamophobia.”
Former President Donald Trump joined “Fox & Friends Weekend” to speak about the loss of public trust in the media and to respond to criticisms levied against him over comments that he made about Liz Cheney.
Trump targeted “60 Minutes” for allegedly selectively editing an interview that the show gave with Vice President Harris. Talking to Fox News, Trump also called out The Washington Post and other outlets for being “corrupt.”
“They don’t have credibility anymore,” Trump said of the Washington Post. “They have no credibility. The media has to have credibility and the media doesn’t have any credibility.”
Regarding “60 Minutes,” CBS News has refused to release the full transcript, citing the First Amendment, and rejected the assertion that it had “doctored” the Harris interview to mislead the American people. The network insisted that “the interview was not doctored” and that the program “did not hide any part of the vice president’s answer to the question at issue.”
On “Fox & Friends Weekend, “Trump spoke out against Liz Cheney after he was criticized for comments he made at an event in Glendale, Arizona.
“I don’t blame [former Vice President Dick Cheney] for sticking with his daughter, but his daughter is a very dumb individual. Very dumb, she’s a radical war hawk,” Trump said. He added, “All I’m saying is she’s a nutty war hawk. She wanted to go to war with anyone that moves and lose a lot of people, lose a lot of soldiers. Put the nation in trouble.”
“Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? Let’s see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face,” Trump said at an event on Thursday. “You know, they’re all war hawks when they’re sitting in Washington in the nice buildings saying ‘Oh gee well, let’s send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy.”

Multiple campaign calls that were publicly advised on President Biden’s schedule Thursday afternoon were cancelled, FOX News has learned.
Organizations that expected the president’s attendance did not immediately respond to inquiries about whether the Zoom calls still happened as scheduled, without the president.
None of the calls were officially affiliated with the Harris campaign. Biden has no official campaign events scheduled ahead of the election, still facing fallout from his ‘garbage’ remark on a Zoom with Voto Latino this week – which was also not directly tied to the campaign.
The White House did not respond to requests for comment.
Biden’s campaign calls were listed on the week ahead guidance, which was released Sunday.
Biden participated on a campaign call Tuesday with Voto Latino where he took a swipe at former President Trump’s rally in Madison Square Garden. The rally made headlines after insult comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made a joke referring to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.”
“The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Biden said. “His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable and it is un-American.”
Biden’s remarks provoked outrage from Republicans, who accused him of showing contempt for half of the country.

Rapper Cardi B
took the stage in Wisconsin to deliver a speech at a campaign rally for Vice President Harris on Friday, but an apparent teleprompter glitch had the performer stumbling before she could begin.
Cardi B was among the celebrities at Harris’ third and final Wisconsin rally, in the Milwaukee suburb of West Allis. Milwaukee is home to the most Democratic votes in Wisconsin, but its conservative suburbs are where most Republicans live.
As Cardi B stood before the podium, it appeared the teleprompter wasn’t displaying her speech.
“One second guys, one second,” the rapper said as the crowd cheered.
For nearly two minutes, the “WAP” singer tried to work the crowd until the apparent glitch was fixed.
“I’m a little nervous, guys! I’ve been waiting for this moment my whole life,” she said as the crowd continued to cheer the rapper on.
“I need Patience over here. Patience, where are you girl?” Cardi B said, referring to a staffer.
A woman eventually brought Cardi B a cell phone on which the rapper could begin her speech.
“I took my time writing this speech so I’m going to make sure I deliver it right,” Cardi B told the crowd.

Former President Trump will hammer his rival Vice President Harris on the Biden-Harris administration’s economic record after a disappointing jobs report was released Friday.
At a rally later this afternoon in Gastonia, North Carolina, Trump will blame “Hurricane Kamala” for jobs losses that have been attributed to recent natural disasters, including Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
“Yesterday, it was announced that our country lost nearly 30,000 private sector jobs last month alone, along with nearly 50,000 manufacturing jobs in a single month. They’re trying to blame the Hurricane for the jobs numbers—but it wasn’t Hurricane Helene, it was Hurricane Kamala,” Trump will say, according to his prepared remarks.
“Under her catastrophic economic agenda, more than 100,000 manufacturing jobs have been wiped out since the start of this year. 150,000 Americans joined the unemployment rolls last month, and nearly a quarter of a million people dropped out of the labor force.
“This is DISQUALIFYING—we cannot take 4 more years of this calamity.”
U.S. job growth slowed down in October, coming in well short of economists’ expectations, while the unemployment rate was unchanged.
The Labor Department on Friday reported that employers added 12,000 jobs in October, well below the 113,000 gain that was predicted by LSEG economists and the lowest tally since December 2020.
The unemployment rate was 4.1%, in line with expectations.
The number of jobs added in the prior two months were both revised downward, with job creation in August revised down by 81,000 from a gain of 159,000 to 78,000, while September was revised down by 31,000 from a gain of 254,000 to 223,000.
Private sector payrolls contracted by 28,000 in October after LSEG economists projected they would rise by 90,000.
The manufacturing sector saw employment decline by 46,000 jobs in October, which the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) noted was largely due to strike activity in the transportation equipment manufacturing sector. About 33,000 unionized machinists at Boeing have been on strike since early September.
The construction sector added 8,000 jobs — below the average of 20,000 jobs per month in the past 12 months.
Health care added 52,300 jobs in October, near its average monthly gain of 58,000 in the last year.
The government added 40,000 jobs in October, mostly in line with its average monthly gain of 43,000 over the past 12 months.
The BLS noted that Hurricane Helene made landfall in the southeast before the reference period for its employment surveys, while Hurricane Milton hit the same region during the report period.
Fox Business’ Eric Revell contributed to this report.
With the economy top-of-mind for voters heading to the polls, one finance expert is sounding the alarm about Vice President Kamala Harris’ “lack of conversation” surrounding international economic theory.
“There is a potential red flag there with Harris’s lack of conversation surrounding tariffs and really confronting China head on,” “What Should I Do With My Money?” author Bryan Kuderna told Fox News Digital.
“She has been so quiet on any international economic theory, whether that’s to have tariffs, not to have tariffs, how we’re going to move forward the next four years in comparison to the other superpower, China, kind of the elephant in the room. She’s been very, very quiet on this.”
Harris has largely focused her economic platform on domestic issues and supporting America families through proposed credits and incentives. She has also touted policies which would make the rich “pay their fair share in taxes.”
Kuderna, however, warned if Harris is elected and her economic policy goes into place, it could leave America vulnerable on the world stage.
“If we step back and say, well, let’s just kind of see how things unfold. Let’s focus on America and helping young professionals, helping first-time homebuyers, things of this nature, that’s all well and good. But meanwhile, if that allows China and their economy to really become a bit more dominant, that can have long-term consequences to our global standing as No. 1.”

The daughter of the late NFL legend Jim Brown endorsed former President Donald Trump, explaining how his support for the Black community shifted her perspective during his first term in office.
Kimberly Brown revealed how her father’s involvement with Trump “opened” her eyes during “FOX & Friends,” and explained why she decided to endorse the former president as opposed to Vice President Kamala Harris.
“My dad went to go meet with President-elect Trump, and when my dad went to go meet with the president-elect, that really opened up my eyes,” Brown said on Friday. “I stayed neutral for about a year within his presidency, and after that… I came out as a Trump supporter because I saw the moves that Donald Trump was making.”
“Within the first 100 days, he gave us our religious rights with an executive order,” she continued. “I saw that he was defunding Planned Parenthood, the No. 1 killer of Black lives. He created the First Step Act, signed that in for prison reform. My father consulted on the First Step Act. School choice, record-breaking HBCU funding, so I saw that Trump was doing a lot for Black people.”
Brown, who is a professional athlete herself, explained that protecting the sanctity of women’s sports is a key issue for her this election, and that is another reason she will cast her ballot for the former president.
“I play tackle football. I don’t want to be on the field with a man wearing a wig, taking hormones, taking hits,” she said. “That’s already going to affect me physically with injuries. I’m already susceptible to CTE, to concussions, and for a 300-pound man to go against me, that’s going to put me at risk and is going to put other girls and women at risk, as well as the mental trauma of them coming into our safe spaces.”
“It’s unfair. They’re taking away opportunities. They’re taking away funding. They’re taking away women’s rights,” she continued. “And Title IX was to protect us. Title IX was to give us a fair, equal playing field and not to be discriminated against. This is not similar. This is a whole other sex coming into our sport and taking over, and I don’t understand how the Biden-Harris administration is pushing this agenda.”

“Real Time” host Bill Maher fumed over President Biden’s “garbage” comment about Trump supporters, suggesting it could have a big impact on Election Day.
“I think it’s a bigger gaffe than people think,” Maher began his panel discussion Friday night. “It’s so funny, Joe Biden, his whole career, he was like Mr. Gaffe, and then here at the very end- he’s like Aaron Judge in Game Six. He just f–kin’ muffed the fly ball and at the end of the thing, and blew the whole [game].”
“Because I feel like it epitomizes everything that the Trump people hate about the Democrats. They look down at us. It’s like ‘deplorables’ times ten,” Maher said.
“The Fifth Column” podcast co-host Michael Moynihan agreed with Maher, saying it reaffirms the belief that “the elite” hate Trump supporters and swiftly dismissed the media’s debate over “the apostrophe” because it was “clear” what Biden was talking about, stressing it was “not a net-positive for Democrats.”
The Bulwark’s Tim Miller suggested the “dumb” comment wasn’t so damaging, telling Maher “I don’t know if Trump took advantage of it as much as some people might want to think.”
The HBO host then pivoted to the “garbage” joke told by insult comedian Tony Hinchcliffe that sparked the controversy, which was made at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally when he referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.”
“Did the Democrats look weak because they can’t take a joke?” Maher asked. “Because I think that’s another Achilles heel that they have.”

A pro-Trump group has launched a seven-figure ad buy as a closing pitch for the former president after the clip went viral on social media.
On Friday, Building America’s Future (BAF), a conservative nonprofit, released the clip titled “Moments” that it says highlights the “attacks on Donald Trump and his supporters in recent months.”
The ad, posted on X by Elon Musk and others, has garnered over 20 million views on X.
“Think about all they’ve done to Donald Trump,” the ad says. “First it was hoaxes, witch hunts, and impeachments. Then it was FBI raids, courtrooms, and mug shots. Finally, it was bullets in a Pennsylvania field.
“And after all that, this man stood up, with blood draining down his face, pumped his fist in the air and told us to ‘Fight. Fight. Fight.’”
The ad then plays a clip from Trump saying. “America’s future will be bigger, better, bolder, brighter, happier, stronger, free-er, greater, and more united than ever before. And we will Make America Great Again.”

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court shut down an effort to allow mail-in ballots lacking a handwritten date to be counted in the 2024 election.
The ruling overturns a decision from a Commonwealth Court finding that the state law requiring a handwritten date was unconstitutional. The Pennsylvania GOP appealed that ruling to the state supreme court, and now undated mail-in ballots will not be counted in the upcoming election.
Justice Kevin Dougherty admonished the Commonwealth Court for its ruling in a forcefully-worded opinion relating to Friday’s ruling.
“‘This Court will neither impose nor countenance substantial alterations to existing laws and procedures during the pendency of an ongoing election.’ We said those carefully chosen words only weeks ago. Yet they apparently were not heard in the Commonwealth Court, the very court where the bulk of election litigation unfolds,” Dougherty wrote.
“Today’s order, which I join, rights the ship. And it sends a loud message to all courts in this Commonwealth: in declaring we would not countenance substantial alterations to existing laws and procedures during the pendency of an ongoing election, we said what we meant and meant what we said,” he continued.
Pennsylvania Republicans hailed the Friday ruling, saying Democrats have repeatedly tried to subvert the dating requirement.
“The Pennsylvania Supreme Court upheld the law, and the dated ballot requirement will be in effect for this election. Democrats have repeatedly tried to eliminate this important ballot safeguard, and we have stopped them each time,” RNC Chairman Michael Whatley said in a statement. “We are committed to protecting critical ballot safeguards to ensure every ballot is cast and counted properly and will continue to fight across Pennsylvania to Protect the Vote.”
State officials in favor of allowing undated ballots to be counted argue the change would make process easier for election workers. The Pennsylvania Department of State filed a brief in favor of the change prior to the court’s ruling on Friday.

New numbers released in a key swing state show that Republicans have virtually erased the Democrat voter-registration lead, on top of historic early-voting numbers for Republicans, which one expert tells Fox News Digital is part of an effective strategy on the ground targeting a key demographic.
Figures released by the Nevada Secretary of State on Friday showed that Democrats hold a 9,200-vote lead in registrations over Republicans after October data was added. Four years ago, Democrats held an advantage of roughly 86,000 votes heading into Election Day.
On top of significantly narrowing the registration gap, Republicans have had a historically high early-vote turnout and lead Democrats by about 5% in the early vote, which ended in person on Friday, while trailing in mail-in votes.
Early voting concluded in Nevada with 393,811 votes cast for Republicans, 344,539 for Democrats, and 287,762 for other affiliations, according to the Secretary of State website.
The roughly 49,000 vote advantage that Republicans had over Democrats at the end of the week is a stark contrast from 2020, when Democrats ended early voting with a 43,000-vote advantage.
Biden won Nevada by roughly 34,000 votes in 2020.

Far-left “Squad” member Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., declined to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for president Friday at a United Auto Workers union rally in Detroit.
Tlaib, the lone Palestinian-American member of Congress, has been critical of the Biden-Harris administration’s support for Israel in the war against Hamas since the Oct. 7, 2023 terror attack, in which 1,500 people were slaughtered. Her decision to withhold an endorsement from Harris is significant as Michigan is one of three “blue wall” states Democrats view as must-win to defeat former President Trump.
Rather than lend her support to Harris, Tlaib made a general plea for voters to get to the ballot box on Tuesday, according to the Detroit News.
“Don’t underestimate the power you all have,” she said. “More than those ads, those lawn signs, those billboards, you all have more power to turn out people that understand we’ve got to fight back against corporate greed in our country… We’ve got to make sure that the nonpartisan part of the ballot gets filled in.”
Tlaib spoke at the UAW rally alongside fellow “Squad” member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. and UAW president Shawn Fain, both of whom endorsed Harris.
South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Donald Trump Jr. joined Franklin Graham of Samaritan’s Purse Friday to help airlift warm clothing to Hurricane Helene-torn North Carolina as temperatures fell in the region.
Samaritan’s Purse, a Christian disaster relief and evangelism organization, has served its home state of North Carolina since Hurricane Helene ripped through the southeast in late September.
Noem joined Trump and Graham, the president of Samaritan’s Purse and son of the late Rev. Billy Graham, in the Bat Cave community near Chimney Rock Friday afternoon.
With donations personally delivered from California-based Kirstyn Hairston of KUIU and Dan and Agatha Genter of Genter Capital Management, Samaritan’s Purse airlifted over 1,200 articles of winter clothing to the storm-torn survivors of Bat Cave, including winter jackets, fleece sweaters and pants, according to a release.
“Today was an amazing opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus and to be a blessing to people alongside Samaritan’s Purse,” South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem said in an exclusive statement to Fox News Digital. “Today, we saw the devastation of entire communities that have lost homes and all their belongings and even lost lives.
“So, we’re not only here today — we’re not going to forget about these folks. They will need our help for weeks and years to come. They will still need us to pray for them and lift them up. And they’ll need an organization like Samaritan’s Purse to walk alongside them.”

Former national security adviser John Bolton said Friday he thinks his ex-boss former President Trump is unlikely to accept a loss in the 2024 presidential election.
“We should be ready for it,” he told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins in an interview.
He also said the pre-election litigation that is ongoing across the U.S. is a “good thing” that may resolve several issues ahead of Nov. 5.
“I actually think that’s a good thing. I think the more issues that — it’s getting late now, obviously. But the more issues that are litigated before the election, the better,” Bolton said.
High-profile election cases before various state and federal courts include an unsuccessful attempt by Republicans to block the counting of certain provisional ballots in Pennsylvania, a challenge to Virginia’s effort to purge voter rolls of non-citizens and challenges to overseas voter eligibility.
“At least now, some of this litigation is filed beforehand, and we’re getting results, some favorable to Trump, some not favorable to Trump,” said Bolton. “It’s taking those issues off the table.”
Still, he said Americans should be prepared for Trump to contest the results of the election.
“But I think everybody ought to be ready. Because Trump never loses,” Bolton said. “And if he loses, it’s because it’s stolen. So, it will be difficult.”
With just four days to Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris holds a commanding 10-point lead over former President Trump in Virginia among likely voters, according to a new poll by Roanoke College.
The Trump campaign is hoping to flip the Old Dominion State red after losing in 2016 and 2020, with the former president making a last-minute stop in Salem on Saturday for a campaign rally. No Republican presidential candidate has won Virginia since former President George W. Bush’s re-election in 2004.
Only 2% of likely voters say they are undecided and another 2% say they will vote for someone other than the five candidates on the ballot, according to the poll.
Harris leads Trump by 51% to 41%, with independent Cornel West and Libertarian Chase Oliver both polling at 2%. Green Party candidate Jill Stein is polling at 1%.
The economy was named as the most important issue by 43% of respondents, followed by abortion (20%) and immigration (12%). Foreign affairs (8%) came in next, followed by crime (3%).
In the U.S. Senate race, Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., leads his Republican challenger Hung Cao by 51% to 40%.
The poll interviewed 851 likely registered voters in Virginia from Oct. 25-29 and has a margin of error of 4.6%.

The House Oversight Committee is applying pressure on the White House to release accurate transcripts, after they allegedly altered President Biden’s remarks after he called Trump supporters “garbage.”
House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., and Oversight Chair James Comer, R-KY, sent a letter to the White House counsel’s office Friday demanding they preserve all documents related to the transcript.
“To date, the White House has not issued a corrected transcript, and the false transcript remains on the White House webpage,” they wrote.
The top members condemned the White House’s alteration of the official transcript, writing that the stenography office cannot “simply rewrite President Biden’s rhetoric.”
“In this case, it appears the White House is doing so to safeguard Vice President Harris’s presidential campaign,” they wrote.
Stefanik and Comer referred to an AP report, which cited an internal email from the head of the stenographer’s office, that noted that the press office “conferred with the president” to change the transcript.
The shocking comment came during Biden’s remarks to Latino activists regarding comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s comments at a Trump rally. Hinchcliffe referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.”
Biden, according to a transcript prepared by the official White House stenographers, told the Latino group on a Tuesday evening video call, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”
The transcript released by the White House press office, however, rendered the quote with an apostrophe, reading “supporter’s” rather than “supporters.”
The White House insisted that Biden was criticizing Hinchcliffe’s comments – and not the huge swath of Americans supporting a Trump presidency.
This is an excerpt from an article by Sarah Rumpf-Whitten and Jacqui Heinrich.
Former President Trump on Friday clarified that he meant former Rep. Liz Cheney doesn’t have the “guts” to fight on the front lines of war after he received a backlash from Democrats over comments he made Thursday about having guns trained on her.
“All I’m saying about Liz Cheney is that she is a War Hawk, and a dumb one at that, but she wouldn’t have ‘the guts’ to fight herself,” the Republican presidential nominee wrote on Truth Social. “It’s easy for her to talk, sitting far from where the death scenes take place, but put a gun in her hand, and let her go fight, and she’ll say, ‘No thanks!’ Her father decimated the Middle East, and other places, and got rich by doing so. He’s caused plenty of DEATH, and probably never even gave it a thought. That’s not what we want running our Country!”
Trump caused controversy when he called Cheney a “radical war hawk” at an event in Arizona on Thursday, adding, “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? Let’s see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face. They’re all war hawks when they’re sitting in Washington in a nice building saying, ‘Oh, gee, well, let’s send 10,000 troops into the mouths of the enemies,’ but she’s a stupid person and I used to have meetings with a lot of people and she always wanted to go to war with people.”
Trump also told reporters at a campaign stop in Dearborn, Michigan, on Friday: “Even in my administration, she was pushing that we go to war with everybody, and I said if you ever gave her a rifle and let her do the fighting, if you ever do that, she wouldn’t be doing too well, I will tell you right now. But she’s a war hawk. She wants to go kill people unnecessarily.”
The remarks prompted accusations from liberals of violent rhetoric and that Trump was suggesting Cheney should face a firing squad.
This is an excerpt from an article by Brie Stimson.
Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville blasted the “truth teller caucus” in the media who “have to be fair” instead of condemning former President Trump’s political rhetoric.
Trump’s comments this week attacking Republican Liz Cheney for being a “radical war hawk” have set off controversy, with numerous critics framing it as a call for violence, and others pointing to the full context as exoneration.
Carville, who recently declared he was uninterested in being “fair” this election, said, “The wormiest and slimiest people in this is what I call the ‘truth teller’ caucus. The people out there that are just so burdened with the obligation to tell y’all the truth. And you see these a–wipes everywhere. You see them in commentary, you see them in newsrooms, you see columns, you see them on cable TV, and you see it in the newscasts.”
He juxtaposed pundits analyzing polling averages with Trump allegedly calling to arrest his political opponents and blasted the media for acting “like these are two equal godd— things.”
Carville went on to paraphrase the false narrative about Trump wanting to set a firing squad on Cheney.
“You also have the professional centrists, the people who just have to take a centrist approach,” and try to converge in the middle. “Let’s say Trump wants a 9-person firing squad to execute Liz Cheney,” Carville said, before mocking centrist pundits by suggesting they would be asking, “Is the middle position a 4-person firing squad or a 5-person firing squad?”
“These people are so f—ing stupid,” Carville said, adding that they are “victims of idiotic tunnel vision of what they are and their own exaggerated sense of fairness. It’s hard to make the whole thing up.”
Carville said that if the country is “done in,” it will be the fault of these “professional ‘truth tellers,’ you know, the kind of people that have to be fair.”
Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 104 days as the presumptive, and now, official Democratic nominee for president without holding an official press conference.
Trump has held at least six news conferences where he took questions from the media since the beginning of August. Harris has done several brief, informal press gaggles this week with the media while on the campaign trail, including on Monday when she criticized the tone and rhetoric at Trump’s rally in New York City over the weekend.
She gave a speech on Tuesday in Washington, D.C., outlining her path forward for the United States and how she differs from what she calls Trump’s radical, dark vision.
Harris also ended her streak of not appearing on Fox News last month, sitting for an interview in Pennsylvania with chief political anchor Bret Baier. She also did a CNN town hall and interviews last week with NBC News, Telemundo and CBS, as well as several podcasts and local news stations this week.
Harris has stepped up her interviews in recent weeks, including doing radio hits, friendly appearances with “The View,” Stephen Colbert and Howard Stern and other media appearances.
But as for when she’ll actually do a formal press conference as a candidate, that day appears like it won’t come, at least while she’s still a candidate.
This is an excerpt from an article by Brian Flood and David Rutz.
Georgia Republicans appear confident the state’s record-setting early voting numbers will favor their 2024 presidential nominee.
“It’s been record turnout, something unbelievable — voting from all across the state,” Georgia Lt. Gov. Burt Jones told Fox News Digital. “I think the enthusiasm, the momentum, is with President Trump.”
The former commander in chief lost Georgia by less than 1% in 2020, and Republicans have poured enormous time and resources into winning it back Nov. 5.
A significant part of that strategy has been convincing people to cast ballots early, traditionally a voting method more favored by Democrats.
And both parties’ emphasis on early voting has had a seismic effect. During the early voting period between Oct. 15 and Nov. 1, nearly 4 million Georgians cast in-person or absentee ballots, more than half the state’s active voters.
Over 700,000 people who voted already in 2024 did not vote at all in 2020, according to Georgia Votes.
Meanwhile, the top three counties for voter turnout rates are rural areas won by Trump in 2020.
Both of those factors, Jones argued, were favorable indicators for the ex-president.
“We’ve got a lot of voters that voted in 2016 but didn’t vote in 2020. … What makes me believe that they are Trump voters is that most of them are … from parts of the state that are pretty strong Republican strongholds,” he said.
“You start breaking down where they live, where they were historically as far as the Republican cards they pulled in the past, and, like I said, the on-the-ground enthusiasm for [Trump] right now is pretty off the charts.”
This is an excerpt from an article by Elizabeth Elkind.
Former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., is calling on former President George W. Bush to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris.
Cheney made the comment during a Friday episode of The New Yorker Radio Hour.
“I can’t explain why George W. Bush hasn’t spoken out but I think it’s time, and I wish that he would,” Cheney said.
This comes after Cheney and her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, who served under Bush, endorsed Harris for President. The former Republican congresswoman has been campaigning with Harris in recent weeks.
Bush’s daughter, Barbara, has also endorsed Harris and is campaigning for the vice president.
“It was inspiring to join friends and meet voters with the Harris-Walz campaign in Pennsylvania this weekend,” the former first daughter told People Magazine on Tuesday. ‘I’m hopeful they’ll move our country forward and protect women’s rights.”
But the former president and his wife, Laura, have said they have no plans to endorse a presidential candidate.
Vice President Kamala Harris is urging her supporters to vote with the clock ticking down toward Election Day.
“We’re going to get this done, but nobody can sit by the sidelines,” the Democratic presidential nominee emphasized as she campaigned in battleground Wisconsin. “You don’t want to look back on these four days and have any regrets about what you could have done.”
Harris and the Republican nominee, former President Trump, held dueling rallies Friday night a few miles apart in Milwaukee, Wisconsin’s largest city.
Hours earlier, while campaigning in Michigan, another crucial Great Lakes swing state, Trump told his supporters “nothing matters except what happens on Tuesday.”
“Just pretend that we’re one point down. We’re not. We’re up. But pretend that we’re one point down on Tuesday,” the former president stressed. He once again touted that he’s leading Harris, even though the latest polls continue to indicate it’s a toss-up.
With time running out, the campaign strategy now shifts.
“The closing arguments have been made. It’s not really about persuasion now. It’s about turnout. And that’s where all the energy of the campaigns are going to be directed,” longtime Republican strategist David Kochel told Fox News.
Kochel, a veteran of numerous GOP presidential campaigns, said, “At this point, people’s minds are made up. There are very few people out there to convince at this point. And if they’re deciding, they’re deciding between voting or sitting on the couch.”
Harris and Trump on Thursday each held their final events in the western battlegrounds of Arizona and Nevada, and Friday’s competing rallies were their last stops in Wisconsin ahead of Election Day.
The razor-thin margins in those three states, along with Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina, decided President Biden’s 2020 victory over Trump and will likely determine if Harris or Trump wins the 2024 election.
This is an excerpt from an article by Paul Steinhauser.
Changing leaves, the World Series, Halloween, the New York City Marathon. Then, in a blink, Election Day. The classic quadrennial late-fall cycle in America.
Now it’s the final stretch, the final sprint. The race currently seems so tight, it is impossible to predict with confidence who will win, or what ultimately will be the deciding factors for the voters. Yet in a few short days, we will likely know the answer. Then Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, Hanukkah , Christmas, New Year’s, and at last, Inauguration Day. On January 20, 2025, the next POTUS will take office. Former President Donald Trump may return to the West Wing, or we may greet President Kamala Harris as Number 47.
Harris, in her brief race to the White House, has achieved many impressive feats. In a blast of summer joy, she energized the Democratic Party. She held court over thousands of citizens in jam-packed rallies around the country. She looked both confident and glam at the debate against Trump. She raised over a billion dollars in support, grandly outpacing Trump’s own imposing fundraising effort. Millions of Americans will enthusiastically cast their ballot for the vice president.
NOVEMBER SURPRISE: DISMAL JOBS REPORT GIVES TRUMP LAST-MINUTE POLITICAL AMMUNITION TO FIRE AT HARRIS
If Harris wins, there would be celebration in the blue streets, excitement about the historic first female American president, and hope that Harris would bring to the Oval Office a refreshing mix of energy, leadership, unity and smart new ideas.
There would, of course, be those who would worry about her habit of creating toxic workplaces for notoriously discontented staffers; her long-running failure to stem the influx of migrants at the southern border; her largely unpopular stance on transgender issues, and the uncertainty still surrounding many of her key positions and international steel. Others would be more generous and encourage their fellow Americans to give Harris a chance to acclimate to the top job and take her shot at becoming one of the greats.
Meanwhile, there would be complicated feelings on the other side. Trump voters would be disappointed, crushed, angry, stoic, resigned, disruptive, or, perhaps, sanguine. Some might blame a blatantly biased press, electoral mischief, Trump derangement syndrome, or the candidate himself for being too chaotic, too volatile, too rhetorically undisciplined, too past his prime.
Most red voters, however, would get on with the business of their lives, even as they proudly wear their MAGA hats and buy Trump buttons and other vintage merch to pass down to their grandchildren. They would continue to vote Republican and keep a close eye on the likely party majority in the Senate, along with JD Vance, Nikki Haley, and any MAGA candidates Trump chooses to support.
But for the blue voters, if Harris loses the election and Trump returns to the White House, there would be a seismic, convulsive uproar of angst and censure within the Democratic Party that would resonate from coast to coast. There would be much to blame, and many to blame, and the accusations would be flung far and wide, with fury and fervor.
The first person to be placed in the dunking machine would be … not Kamala Harris, but President Joe Biden. For staying in the race too long, only leaving when it was indefensible for him to continue after his disastrous June debate. For running for president back in 2020, when it was clear to some that his mental acuity was already in decline, and that the prospect of a long-term presidential career was untenable. For blocking other viable Democrats from running, curbing the growth and potential of his party’s future leadership. For picking Harris as his running mate for crass demographic reasons, and for covering up unsavory truths about his family, especially his son, Hunter. For choosing self-interest and vanity over country, putting an egotistical desire to remain in power over the needs of the party and the nation.
Even those who might dispute these claims, and argue that Biden was acting with integrity and fortitude when he ran in 2020 and 2024, convinced he was the only person who could beat Trump (which may be proven correct this go-round, despite his deterioration), would lay some of the debris at Biden’s feet.
Second in line for blame would be Harris. For taking that summer burst of joy and hope and mangling it with word salads and a refusal to answer basic questions or properly prepare for and perform at important interviews.
For declining to clarify her most fundamental policy positions; for not sending sufficient signals to the center of the electorate that she understands where her party has gone too far; for not mastering the politics of appeal to Hispanics, young Black men, or Arab-, Muslim-, and Jewish-Americans; and for inexplicably maintaining an unusually light schedule for a young, hale candidate unfettered by funding issues or a pandemic. And, if she loses Pennsylvania, for not having the fortitude and clarity to choose the Keystone State’s popular Governor Josh Shapiro as her running mate.
Next, blame would be placed on a liberal agenda, one that wandered off the smooth, paved road of enlightenment, stumbled through the weeds, and then tangled itself in the brambles of extreme, almost irrational, thought, causing even yellow dog Democrats to get a little orange.
Some Democratic voters, astonished and bewildered, say they no longer recognize the party they grew up with, while many loyal donors are on full alert that their funds would someday be responsible for allowing young children to unwittingly have their genders reassigned or the Middle East to be fully controlled by terrorist groups.
Alternatively, and contradictorily, blame also would be cast by the AOC wing of the party, who would charge that their fellow Democrats have in fact been too meek, lacking the conviction to push boldly and decisively into a new era of full-blown progressive change and populist economics.
In addition to blame, there would be a profound reckoning about how the Democratic Party lost its mainstream appeal. Once it offered a home to a wide spectrum of voters (fiscal conservatives, progressives, bipartisan moderates, lefties) while embracing classic American tenets such as tolerance, free speech, patriotism and a global helping hand. There was a tangible pride in its representation of the old and the young, the well-heeled and the up-and-coming, the patriarchs and the new arrivals.
Now it is fragmented and disordered, plagued by infighting, resentment and second-guessing, resembling a dog with a flea on its tail, chasing itself, circling, biting, without calm or cohesion, or a fresh mainstream policy agenda. And, of course, as much as Democrats are loath to admit it, or even think about it, Trump has taken advantage of their move to the far left to take more of the ground in the political center than they could have ever imagined.
In the past, when faced with setbacks, the Democratic Party has found ways to right itself, correct course and learn from its mistakes, unquestionably with assists from generational political talents such as Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, who were able to synthesize the critiques, move the party back into a zone of health and inspire confidence from leaders and civilians on both sides of the aisle after a White House loss.

Clinton, in particular, along with other party thinkers at the Democratic Leadership Council, made an effort to appeal to all Americans after a string of presidential campaign losses culminating in Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis’ defeat at the hands of President George H.W. Bush.
Clinton took stances both bold and nuanced on policies such as right to work, welfare reform, the death penalty and free trade, positions that were a shock to many on the far left, but that reflected an effort to understand the other side and speak to all citizens as a united entity. He gave his party a new, winning direction, a path they largely stayed on until the rise of Biden and Harris.
But for the blue voters, if Harris loses the election and Trump returns to the White House, there would be a seismic, convulsive uproar of angst and censure within the Democratic Party that would resonate from coast to coast. There would be much to blame, and many to blame, and the accusations would be flung far and wide, with fury and fervor.
But in 2024, the Democrats are in far deeper denial about their party’s identity than they have been in the modern era. How far left it has gone, how unstable and unreliable many perceive it to be, How and why Trump has dominated American politics for a decade and counting.
If Kamala Harris wins, she would step into the role as president for all Americans, a responsibility she undoubtedly is qualified to undertake. The Democratic Party, then, would have some breathing space to figure out how to create its own comprehensive appeal, and determine a viable path for the future of the brand.
But if Harris loses, Democrats in Washington and around the country would have an enormous task: they would have to find a way to salvage the party and come to terms with its fractured identity and significant disillusionment from its base, all while dealing with fallout from the election, preparing for political combat against Donald Trump, and managing a collective mental health crisis from its disillusioned cohorts.

And if Harris loses, this would be the Democrats’ biggest problem: there would be zero consensus in the party about what went wrong – and thus zero consensus about what the proper solutions should be, and, therefore, zero consensus about which leaders should be empowered to bring the party back to power.
All we do know is that, under those circumstances, it almost certainly won’t be Joe Biden or Kamala Harris.

GOP candidate has mic-drop moment when Dem rival accuses her of favoring the rich
A Republican congressional candidate in New Hampshire blasted her Democratic opponent Thursday evening, reminding her she is a multimillionaire after the Democrat accused her of favoring the rich.
“She believes that we should give a break to the wealthiest and the biggest corporations and hope for the best, hope that the results will trickle down to hardworking people,” Democratic congressional candidate Maggie Goodlander, who is married to National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, said of Republican Lily Tang Williams during a debate.
“I take a very different approach. I believe that the middle class deserves a tax cut, and I believe that we will do a lot for this country by ensuring that we don’t continue this disastrous tax policy.”
Raising her hand to respond, Republican Lily Tang Williams hit back at Goodlander, saying, “You are wealthy. You’re worth $20 million to $30 million. How do you know about regular people’s suffering? Do you go shopping? Go to Walmart? Buy food? I talk to those people. And you pretend to be a renter in Nashua a few months ago, move back to run for this open seat with millions of dollars from Washington, D.C., insiders. … I don’t have money to run a TV ad, and you pretend you are poor, complain rent is so high.
HARRIS PICKS UP ENDORSEMENTS FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE REPUBLICANS 6 DAYS BEFORE ELECTION
“You do not understand regular people’s concerns.”
Goodlander has an apartment in Nashua, New Hampshire, in the 2nd District and said during the debate that she would own property in the district if elected, the New Hampshire Center for Public Interest Journalism reported.
Both candidates are millionaires, but Goodlander appears to be worth far more than Tang Williams.
Tang Williams is worth between $3.8 million and $8.6 million, while Goodlander is worth between $9.9 million and $39 million, with most of her wealth in a trust fund, according to WMUR-TV, citing financial disclosures.
When Tang Williams came to the U.S. from China, she only had $100 in her pocket, according to the New Hampshire Center for Public Interest Journalism.
BIDEN CALLS FOR TRUMP TO BE ‘POLITICALLY’ LOCKED UP AT NEW HAMPSHIRE EVENT
The two women are running for the open seat in New Hampshire’s 2nd District vacated by Democratic Rep. Annie Kuster.
The latest poll shows Goodlander with an eight-point lead ahead of Tuesday.
Tang Williams is a Chinese immigrant who became a U.S. citizen in 1994. She has also previously run as a Libertarian in Colorado.

Goodlander is a native of New Hampshire and part of a well-connected political family in the state.
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu has called Tang Williams a “phenomenal success story,” according to the New Hampshire Center for Public Interest Journalism.
Georgia judge issues mail-in ballot ruling three days before election
A judge in Georgia on Saturday dismissed a Republican lawsuit that sought to block voters from hand-returning mail-in ballots in the state over the weekend.
The lawsuit centered around officials in Fulton County, a Democratic stronghold, opening normally closed country offices on Saturday and Sunday to allow voters to hand in their ballots.
Five other Democratic-leaning counties in the state also announced that county offices would be open over the weekend.
Early voting in Georgia ended on Friday and the lawsuit, filed Friday night, cited a section of state law that says ballot drop boxes cannot be open past the end of advance voting.
HARRIS TEARS INTO TRUMP, PRAISES GEN Z IN CLOSING ARGUMENT TO GEORGIA VOTERS
But state law also states that voters can hand in mail ballots until the polls close on Tuesday night.
GEORGIA’S NEARLY 4 MILLION EARLY VOTES BODES WELL FOR TRUMP, TOP STATE REPUBLICAN SAYS
GOP lawyer Alex Kaufman argued in a Saturday emergency hearing that while it’s OK to mail absentee ballots, they shouldn’t be hand-delivered after early voting ends, but Fulton County Superior Court Judge Kevin Farmer rejected all of his arguments.
“I find that it is not a violation of those two code sections for a voter to hand-return their absentee ballots,” Farmer said.
A Fulton County spokesperson said on Saturday afternoon that only a couple dozen ballots had been returned to the four open county offices.

Former President Trump narrowly lost Georgia, a usually reliably Republican state, to President Biden by fewer than 12,000 votes in 2020, and afterward Trump made unsubstantiated accusations of fraud in Fulton County.
Both Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris have been actively campaigning in the state, now considered a battleground.
I wasn’t planning to write this.
Two years ago, I said I would vote for a Democrat over Donald Trump in 2024. I wrote that during a Republican primary I hoped Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis would win; DeSantis had stood almost alone against COVID lockdowns and vaccine mandates, forever earning my respect.
But Trump crushed DeSantis in the primary. Ever since, I have struggled over what to do in this election.
In one sense, my vote doesn’t matter. I live in New York, which Kamala Harris is sure to win. But it must matter at least a little, because many of you – a surprising number – have asked or urged me to repudiate my 2022 words and endorse Trump.
With three days left in this most brutal of campaigns, I am.
In some ways, this choice pains me.

Donald Trump’s rhetoric is vicious. His unwillingness to promise to abide by the results of Tuesday’s election is dangerous. His friendly attitude towards dictators like Vladimir Putin disheartens me. And though I hate abortion, I do not support overturning Roe v Wade.
Yet.
Yet when I pull back and consider the issues, I see:
It is the Democratic Party that stands against free speech; that forced mRNA vaccines on tens of millions of healthy adults; that opened America’s southern border until public outcry forced it closed; that supports decriminalization of drugs and “decarceration” of violent criminals; that presides over one giveaway after another to its favored interest groups; and that is willing to risk the American economy over its fears of climate change – it has, with little notice, pushed through regulations that will make gasoline-powered vehicles all but unaffordable within a decade.
What exactly does Kamala Harris stand for, if not more of the same?
That’s not a rhetorical question. I truly don’t know. But she is happy to take the endorsement of Dick Cheney, the chickenhawk warmonger who for 50 years has stood for everything wrong with American elites and American politics.
And if Donald Trump’s words have grown more vicious, he has his reasons.
In the last year, prosecutors in his former home state launched not one but two trials against him, the first aimed at bankrupting him over loans , the second at imprisoning him for the crime of winning in 2016. In front of juries in Manhattan, a county that voted against Trump by nearly 9 to 1 in 2020, both succeeded.
And – though the media rarely sees fit to mention this – , under circumstances that remain somewhat murky.
In response, Trump did NOT stop campaigning.
He is working harder to win votes than he ever has, in the face of an elite media that hates him more than ever. For all his complaints about rigged elections, he wants to win this one quite badly.
So, yes, Donald Trump is angry. He has the right to be.
We ALL have the right to be. For too long, our self-appointed betters – in the media, in public health, in academia – have told us they know best. They have told us that men can be women if they just click their heels three times, that the United States is an evil nation founded mostly to protect slavery, that there’s no such thing as an illegal immigrant. Most of all they have tried to shut down – to cancel, to -anyone who disagrees.
They’ve gone too far. And with their lawfare, they have proven that they will do anything to stop the man they abhor.
So I will be voting for Donald Trump.
It is not an easy choice – not for me, anyway – but it is the only choice.
Abortion supporters rally for Harris in blue state as issue hits the ballot across the country
Hundreds turned out to participate in the Woman’s March in Massachusetts ahead of Election Day, in a strong show of support for Vice President Kamala Harris and abortion access.
People marched on Boston Common, holding signs that read, “We won’t go back” and “Abortion is health care.” Some men joined with them.
The woman’s march happened in Boston, as well as in Washington, D.C., and in Kansas City, Missouri.
Speakers urged people to vote in the election — highlighting that abortion is on the ballot in nine states.
“How many of you are going to vote on Tuesday? How many of you can’t wait to wake up to a woman president?” Rev. Dr. Deborah Haffner, of First Unitarian Universalist Society in Newton, Massachusetts, asked.
TRUMP SAYS HE WANTS TO PROTECT WOMEN, HARRIS SAYS TRUMP WANTS TO DECIDE ‘WHAT YOU DO WITH YOUR BODY’
Tracy Murphy told NBC 10 Boston that she organized the women’s march because she wanted to give it her all no matter who wins.
“Today’s message is that we want everybody to vote,” Murphy said.
Abortion and the 2024 election
Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022, abortion access has returned to the state level.
Abortion has remained a hot-button issue in the 2024 election – with abortion being a top issue for many female voters.
DESANTIS CAMPAIGNS AGAINST HIGH-STAKES ABORTION MEASURE ON FLORIDA BALLOT: ‘BAIT AND SWITCH’ LEGISLATION
Nine states will consider constitutional amendments that would enshrine abortion rights — Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada and South Dakota.
A record number of voters think abortion should be legal, with two-thirds favoring a nationwide law guaranteeing access, according to a Fox News national survey conducted on March 22-25, 2024.
FOX NEWS POLL: RECORD NUMBER SAY ABORTION SHOULD BE LEGAL
Fifty-nine percent think abortion should be legal in all or most cases, up from the previous high of 57% in September 2022 and a record lowof 44% in April 2022.
Support for legalization has been up (mostly by double-digits) across the board since April 2022, two months before Roe was overturned. That includes increased support among voters ages 65 and older (+16 points should be legal), conservatives (+12), Republicans (+11), and White evangelical Christians (+10).
Overall, just 7% think abortion should never be permitted, while five times as many say it always should be (35%). Another one-third (32%) say abortion should be illegal except in cases of rape, incest, or to save the life of the mother.
Trump
Former President Trump has shifted his stance on abortion during the election cycle, with the Republican nominee hoping to attract independents and some disillusioned Democrats, but running the risk of alienating his pro-life base.
Trump notably opposes a federal abortion ban, but has remained opposed to late-term abortions. In July, the Republican Party abandoned its long-standing position of advocating against abortion.
Harris
Throughout Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign, she has argued that Trump — who nominated three conservative justices to the Supreme Court who later voted to overturn Roe v. Wade — is responsible for worsening medical care for women and that he would seek further restrictions.

Harris has cast her position on the topic as creating legislation to restore the national abortion right that was eliminated following Roe v. Wade.
She has also vowed to protect access to the abortion drug mifepristone, calling the drug “essential medication.”
