Trend Elections - Latest news, views and updates

The 42 Broadway in New York is an important address in this election season in the US. This is the office of the Board of Elections. Michael Ryan, executive director, and his deputy Vincent Ignizio are upbeat about the figures that the early voting has drawn for the city. On the first day, about 140,000 votes were cast in the early voting. We don't want to pat ourselves on the back but we are upbeat about this. New York has already created a record in early voting and it is still on, says Ryan. Across the United States, tens of millions of voters have already cast their ballots.

Business Standard

That was Tuesday afternoon. But by evening, Biden didn't take his own advice, and now his off-the-cuff remark on a Zoom campaign call have created a new headache for Democratic nominee Kamala Harris less than a week before Election Day. It's not the first time Biden has created problems by going off script. But the latest incident served as a particular distraction just as Harris was trying to deliver a high-profile "closing argument' for her campaign emphasising the need to unify the country after Trump's divisiveness. Shortly before Harris was about to speak Tuesday night to a massive rally crowd on a stretch of grass not far from the White House, Biden got on a call with a Hispanic advocacy group and commented on a comic's recent insults at a Trump rally where he referred to Puerto Rico as a floating .

According to a statement from the Election Commission, a total of 50 candidates, including nine women, had filed their nomination papers till October 25, but six of those were rejected during scrutiny and an equal number of persons withdrew from the contest. Of the four constituencies, Belaganj has the highest number of 14 candidates, including RJD's Vishwanath Kumar Singh, son of Surendra Prasad Yadav whose election to the Lok Sabha from Jehanabad has necessitated the by-election. His main rival is Manorama Devi of JD(U), a former MLC while Jan Suraaj's Mohd Amjad and AIMIM's Mohd Zamin Ali Hasan are expected to queer the pitch for the two primary contenders. The lowest number of five candidates are in the fray for Ramgarh where RJD's Ajit Kumar Singh, the son of state party chief Jagadanand Singh, hopes to retain t
