2024 US presidential elections are getting excitingDemocrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump are locked in a tight fight. With one day left until the election, both Harris and Trump are at the center of global attention. But both faced different political landscapes in the closing days of the 2020 election.

It was a historic moment in 2020 for then-Senator Kamala Harris, who joined Joe Biden’s team as the first Black and South Asian woman to be nominated for vice president by a major party. He would go on to make history that year as Biden defeated Trump in a chaotic election.

The 2024 poll was initially a rematch of 2020. However, the polls reversed in July when President Biden ended his campaign and endorsed Vice President Harris. Now, she is poised to become America’s first female president and the first black woman to be appointed to a senior post.

For Trump, the scenario was completely different. In 2020, Trump was fighting for re-election in a year shaped by the Covid-19 pandemic. Let’s fast forward to 2024, Trump now seeks rare comebackwith the baggage of a series of controversies and the tag of being the first US president (former or current) to be accused of criminal activity.

KAMALA HARRIS: FROM VICE PRESIDENT TO THE FIRST BLACK WOMAN TO CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT

In 2020, Kamala Harris, of Indo-Jamaican heritage, initially ran for the Democratic presidential nomination. But Biden won the race and chose Harris as his running mate, calling her a “fearless warrior.” He was chosen not only for his extensive legal and legislative experience, but also as a symbol of hope and representation for 47.9 million Black Americans.

Ahead of the 2020 polls, Harris focused on core messages of unity and rebuilding America after the Trump era, as opposed to the more divisive tone of the Trump campaign. He focused on bringing together African Americans and minority communities, especially in key swing states.

Criminal justice reform was a major plank of his campaign, defined by his years as a California prosecutor. Harris’ appeal to young and diverse voters played a key role in Biden’s narrow victory. in cases of significant release.

With only a short campaign period ahead of Biden after Biden dropped out of the race in 2024, Harris had no time to waste. Stepping out of Biden’s shadow, Harris has spent much of her time trying to differentiate her role as vice president from what she plans to do if elected.

This time, Harris’ focus has been not only on mobilizing key blocs of voters but also on demonstrating her experience and competence in leading the world’s largest economy. While the Democrat stayed away from the “break the glass ceiling” rhetoric in his last campaign, he highlighted abortion and policies in his campaign. He repeatedly reminded voters that democracy and reproductive rights are at risk.

In the final days leading up to the election, both candidates held a series of rallies in the battleground states that hold the key to the White House.

DONALD TRUMP: RETURN FROM THE OFFICIAL CAMPAIGN

In 2020, Donald Trump was poised for re-election amid serious challenges due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Trump’s handling of the pandemic has faced widespread criticism for opposing long-term quarantines and prioritizing economic reopening.

In the final days of the 2020 race, Trump’s defiant tone and rejection of scientific consensus on Covid-19 risks alienated some moderate voters. He also brazenly declared that the only way he could lose was if the poll result was rigged, and accused Democrats of “trying to steal” the election when polls hinted Biden would win.

Now, as Trump attempts a rare comeback in 2024, he has once again sought to undermine confidence in the American electoral system. Trump’s remarks at a rally in Pennsylvania that he should not “leave” the White House revived concerns that he would not accept the result if he lost the presidential race.

If it’s his handling of the Covid pandemic in 2020, Trump faces new challenges this time: multiple criminal investigations and ongoing lawsuits.

Trump’s strategy in the final days of the 2024 campaign has focused on portraying the Biden administration as a failure, especially on issues such as inflation and his favorite immigration theme. His rally schedule was packed with stops in every major battleground state, wooing the working class with the promise that he would put America first.
