New Delhi: US Election: Voting for the US presidential election is to take place in a few hours. Republican candidate Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris will have to get 270 votes out of 538 electoral votes to win. Meanwhile, the question arises that what will happen if neither Kamala Harris nor Donald Trump gets the electoral college majority required to win the US election?

The US Constitution says that Congress will play a decisive role in such a situation.

The US election is divided by numbers.

like number 2

Two

Several independent candidates ran — and at least one, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., made headlines. But in the end, the presidential race looks like a binary choice, with the two candidates from the major parties — Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump — seeking to lead a polarized America.

Five 

November 5 – Election Day, traditionally held on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November.

Seven 

The results of these 7 swing states will decide who will be the next President of the United States. Harris and Trump are wooing voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin and are focusing their campaign efforts to ensure victory.

What happens if there is a tie?

In some scenarios, the contest between Kamala and Trump could be a tie if Democrat Kamala Harris wins in swing states Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, while Republican former President Donald Trump wins in Georgia, Arizona, Nevada and North Carolina, and a left-leaning district in Nebraska. However, this is very unlikely to happen.

34 and 435 

Voters won't just decide who occupies the White House on Election Day — they'll also be taking on the U.S. Congress.

Thirty-four seats in the Senate and all 435 seats in the House of Representatives are up for grabs. Members serve two-year terms in the House. Republicans currently hold the majority, and Harris' Democrats will be hoping for a change.

What is the game of 34 numbers?

In the Senate, 34 of the 100 seats are available for six-year terms. Republicans are hoping to overturn the Democratic majority.

75 million 

More than 75 million Americans had voted early as of November 2, according to a University of Florida database.

Most U.S. states allow people to vote in person or mail-in to deal with scheduling conflicts or an inability to vote on election day itself on November 5.
