The clock is ticking as November 5 gets closer. In barely six days, Americans will decide which contender becomes the next president of the United States.

Vice President Kamala Harris has been campaigning for the job full-time. With the support of Democrats, many Independents, and even some Republicans, Harris is rallying voters across the country.

On policy, the vice president has discussed her plans to bring forward an "opportunity economy," approve a bipartisan immigration bill to secure the southern border, provide downpayment assistance to new homebuyers, and much more.

Running against Harris is former President Trump, who's seeking a second term in the White House. By all estimations, the Harris vs. Trump election is a nailbiter and the outcome is unlikely to be a landslide, regardless of which candidate makes it across the finish line.

Just yesterday, a survey from Reuters/Ipsos showed the vice president with a very narrow, 1% lead over her opponent.

Findings released by Reuters and Ipsos show Harris maintaining 44% support, with 43% of Americans favoring the former president. A poll from The Hill and Decision Desk HQ also has similar results. This time, Harris' lead stands at 48.6% while Trump holds 47.9%.

Overall, voters across the country feel most concerned about jobs, the economy, and political extremism. Another recent survey showed roughly four in ten Americans fear violence will break out in the aftermath of next week's Election Day.

A final pitch to win over Americans

Though November 5 is just under one week away, millions of people have already cast their ballots in this election. On Tuesday night, Harris continued making her case to the country by delivering a key address in Washington DC.

Here, the vice president outlined her policy plans for the economy, immigration, and other areas, while warning about the danger she feels Trump would pose, should he be reelected.

Tonight, Harris is in Madison, Wisconsin, hosting another rally with voters. Joining her are guest speakers Remi Wolf, Gracie Abrams, and Mumford & Sons.

Wisconsin is a pivotal battleground area in this election that could very well sway the outcome of November 5. The state is home to ten Electoral College votes that will get either candidate one step closer to the 270 threshold.
