Why the swing states are important
These battlegrounds — Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin— collectively hold 93 electoral votes, making them vital for either candidate's path to the 270 electoral votes needed to secure the presidency.
The significance of these states lies in their historical voting patterns and their potential to swing between Democratic and Republican candidates.
For instance, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin form a trio known as the "Blue Wall", which flipped to Trump in 2016 but was reclaimed by Biden in 2020 with narrow margins.
Winning these states is essential for Harris to solidify her chances against Trump, who aims to reclaim his former office.
