Presidential elections in the USA/ Journalist: We are heading towards breaking
The US is voting today to choose their president for the next four years. The close race is taking place between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.

Klementina Cenkollari, journalist of the Voice of America in a direct connection from the USA for the show "Quo Vadis", made an overview of the atmosphere in the USA. The journalist said that the process continued normally and only a few small technical incidents were noted. She also noted that turnout is very high, saying that Pennsylvania has the most electoral votes.

Cenkollari : It has been a relatively smooth process. What facilitated this process was early voting. There are 82.5 million Americans who voted through the early voting process. For many Americans, today is seen as the last day of the election, referring to the opportunity they have through the election process of early voting.

Borakaj : Were there certain problems with technology, incidents? How is the situation presented?

Cenkollari : It has been reported that there was a problem with the voting machines in a county in Pennsylvania, and therefore the voting there has been delayed by two hours. In the rest, no incidents were reported. Pennsylvania is one of the key states and the margin between the candidates is very narrow. That's why every county in Pennsylvania is so important because of the electoral votes. Pennsylvania has 19 electoral votes among 7 key states. There is a tradition, Exit Polls are released after the polling stations have closed. There is no Exit Poll expected until 19:00 local time. They will be able to read a trend of the voters, in one of the key states that are expected to release the results quickly. We may have a result as early as tonight. It's a state that Mr. Trump is looking to retake because he lost it when he faced Biden in 2020.

Borakaj : When can be the last word?

Cenkollari : It's too early to say, especially if there won't be a clear winner. Legal experts are prepared for legal battles in case there is a dispute. Depending on the states, we will have the result. There is a massive voter turnout and we are on our way to breaking the record for voter turnout.
