In a final rally in North Carolina, Trump urged supporters to vote in record numbers, calling the battleground state “ours to lose.” The latest poll shows a tight race with both campaigns focused on turnout.
“All We Have to Do Is Close It Out”
Trump remained confident but urged vigilance. “Hopefully, everything will work out well. We’re way leading; all we have to do is close it out,” he said. “If we get everybody out and vote, there’s not a thing they can do.”
North Carolina has proven crucial in past elections and remains a highly contested state, with both parties working to sway undecided voters and turn out their base. A recent CNN poll underscores the stakes, showing a tight race with Vice President Kamala Harris polling at 48% to Trump’s 47%—within the margin of error, suggesting neither candidate holds a clear advantage.
Mobilizing for Turnout in the Final Hours
Trump explained that his final campaign stop in North Carolina was part of a strategic push to boost turnout. “Get out and vote,” he encouraged supporters, calling on them to “make sure we bring this home.”
Adding to his father’s message, Donald Trump Jr. took the stage earlier, urging early voters to encourage friends and family to go to the polls. “Get in line, bring your friends, stay in line,” he said.
A Battleground Showdown
As both campaigns intensify their get-out-the-vote efforts, North Carolina’s role in deciding the election has become even more apparent. With only hours until Election Day, the focus is on mobilization, with Trump’s campaign rallying their base to turn out in record numbers. Every vote will be crucial, and both sides hope to gain a definitive edge.
