Today’s Headlines: With less than a day before Election Day, national polls show a tight race. In Iowa, the Selzer poll has Vice President Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump by 3 points—a notable shift in a traditionally Republican state. The poll, known for accuracy, attributes Harris's lead to strong support among older women. Meanwhile, Trump’s controversial comments about Liz Cheney, including a firing squad reference, have prompted an investigation by Arizona’s attorney general. Cheney condemned Trump’s remarks as tyrannical. In Michigan, Trump courted Arab American voters in Dearborn, tapping into frustrations over U.S. policy on Gaza. Legal challenges in Pennsylvania threaten to disqualify thousands of mail-in ballots, mostly from overseas voters, but officials are defending their validity. Amidst heightened threats, Washington Governor Jay Inslee has activated the National Guard to protect election infrastructure. In Texas, a young woman died after being denied medical care following a miscarriage, highlighting the severe impacts of the state’s restrictive abortion law. Finally, in Israel, a scandal involving leaks of sensitive intelligence has raised questions about Prime Minister Netanyahu's involvement, as his aide was implicated in actions risking national security.
