US election: Americans cast votes as polls show Trump and Harris in evenly split race

Voters around the United States are flocking to the polls in a presidential race that is evenly split between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.
 
Each need at least 270 electoral votes to win.
 
The battleground states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are expected to be pivotal to the path to victory.
 
Ms. Harris has advocated for abortion rights and pledged to lower food and housing costs for working families, while Mr. Trump has vowed to seal the border and has proposed tax cuts worth trillions.
 
More than 82 million people voted before election day.
 
Americans are also electing members to the two chambers of Congress, the main law-making body of the US.
 
Those chambers are the Senate and the House of Representatives. Without support in the Senate and the House, the president's ability to enact key policies is severely limited.
