Here's the latest:
Trump continuously refers to former President Obama with emphasis on his middle name, Hussein
At his recent rallies, Trump has been invoking 鈥淏arack Hussein Obama,鈥 emphasizing his predecessor鈥檚 middle name.
Obama鈥檚 critics frequently used his middle name during his presidency along with other ways to make him appear foreign. Trump was a leading proponent of the 鈥渂irther鈥 conspiracy.
Trump claimed he got more votes in his 2020 reelection campaign than he did four years earlier.
鈥淚 mean, Obama, Barack Hussein Obama, he didn鈥檛 do that,鈥 Trump said.
He has also recently used the middle name while saying Obama was a divisive president.
Trump is once again growing wistful as he ends his campaign
鈥淚t鈥檚 sad because we鈥檝e been doing this for nine years,鈥 Trump said in Pittsburgh after inviting members of his family to join him on stage.
Trump is holding his second-to-last rally of the 2024 election 鈥 and says he鈥檒l be done once this ends. His rallies became a cultural phenomenon during his 2015 campaign, drawing thousands of people who often camped out overnight or waited for hours in freezing cold or blazing heat.
鈥淚 have one left. And remember the rallies are the most exciting thing. There鈥檒l never be rallies like this,鈥 he said. 鈥淭his is never going to happen again.鈥
Trump says this will be his last campaign for the White House 鈥 and he鈥檚 finishing it just as he started his first.
He is leaning into hardline immigration rhetoric and vowing to 鈥渓iberate鈥 the country from what he describes as an 鈥渙ccupation.鈥
It鈥檚 rhetoric that has animated his core supporters since he declared his candidacy for the Republican nomination 鈥 and that still earns him some of his loudest applause. His call for the death penalty for any migrant who kills a U.S. citizen drew hoots and whistles and a 鈥淯SA!鈥 chant.
Several of Trump鈥檚 children join him on stage in Pittsburgh
Trump invited several of his children on stage as he spoke nostalgically about the end of his campaign.
He told a story about his youngest son, Barron Trump, teaching him about technology.
鈥淒o I have good kids?鈥 Trump said to loud cheers. 鈥淎re my kids here? Where are my kids?鈥
He was joined on stage by Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and his wife Lara, along with Tiffany Trump and her husband. He said Barron was watching from home and Ivanka Trump 鈥渓oves the whole thing.鈥

鈥淚鈥檓 optimistic. Very bullish on Michigan,鈥 Hoekstra told The Associated Press.
Republicans have also focused on election security in Michigan, but on Monday night, Hoekstra said that 鈥渟o far鈥 he felt good about the security of the election, but 鈥測ou never know what you don鈥檛 know.鈥
鈥淥verall, we鈥檙e feeling good. We鈥檝e got a great effort in place,鈥 said Hoekstra, adding that a 鈥渨ar room鈥 was in place to take calls if there were any issues with voting tomorrow.
Trump in his speech paints migrants as killers, as he often does
Trump says he wants to see the successful Penn State wrestling team compete against migrants, painting a picture of people crossing the border illegally as strong and nasty.
鈥淚 want the migrants to go against the champion, and I think the migrant might actually win,鈥 Trump said, describing migrants 鈥 as he often does 鈥 as killers who鈥檝e spent time in jail.
He said he met the wrestlers recently and told them 鈥渢hey might be the only guys in the country who can beat the hell out of the migrants.鈥
He had a similar riff at a rally earlier Monday.
Immigration has been Trump鈥檚 signature issue since the day he announced his first campaign for president. He often uses dehumanizing language to describe migrants and massively inflates the danger posed by immigrants, who commit crimes at lower rates than native-born Americans.
Andra Day belts Billie Holiday for Kamala Harris
The election may be a nail-biter, but Andra Day said at a rally for Harris in Pittsburgh that she has 鈥渃omplete faith鈥 when it comes to the voting power of the people of Pennsylvania.
鈥淚 love women in positions of power,鈥 she said in her introduction.

In 2020, Andra Day performed her hit 鈥淩ise Up,鈥 what became an unofficial anthem for the Black Lives Matter movement, during President Joe Biden鈥檚 virtual inaugural parade.
Trump speaks dismissively of Beyonc茅鈥檚 appearance at Harris rally
Trump鈥檚 comments drew boos from his supporters for the megastar, who spoke at a Harris rally in Houston but did not perform.
鈥淏eyonc茅 would come in. Everyone鈥檚 expecting a couple of songs. There were no songs. There was no happiness,鈥 Trump said. Harris supporters who were there might dispute his characterization of .
Then Trump offered some advice to fellow politicians who want to appear with celebrities: 鈥淎lways put the stars on after you. That way they stay.鈥
Trump promises to solve all of America鈥檚 ills if he wins the election
鈥淎 vote for Trump means your groceries will be cheaper,鈥 Trump says. 鈥淵our paychecks will be higher, your streets will be safer, your communities will be richer, and your future will be brighter than ever before.鈥
Trump has claimed his plans to increase energy production will help him lower prices, even as he plans to dramatically raise tariffs.
He鈥檚 repeating his campaign鈥檚 closing message that: 鈥淜amala broke it. I will fix it.鈥
Trump: 鈥榃e do not have to settle for weakness, incompetence, decline and decay鈥
Trump is beginning his Pittsburgh speech by painting a bleak picture of America under Democratic leadership and promising to fix it. He says Americans have suffered 鈥渃atastrophic failure, betrayal and humiliation.鈥
鈥淲e do not have to settle for weakness, incompetence, decline and decay,鈥 Trump said. 鈥淲ith your vote tomorrow, we can fix every single problem our country faces and lead America, and indeed the whole world, to new heights of glory.鈥
Trump on stage at his penultimate rally in Pittsburgh
The rally is a redo of sorts after Trump鈥檚 first try at a closing message speech went off the rails.
In a rally at Madison Square Garden in Trump鈥檚 native New York City, comedian Tony Hinchcliffe spoke first and made a joke calling Puerto Rico a pile of garbage, offending many Puerto Ricans and disrupting Trump鈥檚 efforts to build support among Hispanic voters.
Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens, though they can only vote if they live in one of the 50 states.
Trump has distanced himself from the comedian but has not denounced the joke.
Georgia poll worker arrested for mailing bomb threat, Justice Department says
Federal authorities have arrested a Georgia election worker accused of sending a letter threatening poll workers he wrote to make it seem like it had come from a voter he had gotten into a fight with earlier.
Nicholas Wimbish, 25, of Milledgeville, Georgia, got into a verbal altercation with a voter while serving a poll worker at the Jones County Election Office in Gray, Georgia, last month, the Justice Department said.
The next day, prosecutors say he sent a letter from a 鈥淛ones County Voter鈥 to the the elections superintendent. The letter said Wimbish was 鈥渃onspiring votes鈥 and 鈥渄istracting voters from concentrating.鈥 It said Wimbish and others should 鈥渟hould look over their shoulder鈥 and that 鈥淚 know where they all live because I found home voting addresses for all them.鈥
Prosecutors say Wimbish wrote at the bottom of the typed letter: 鈥淧S boom toy in early vote place, cigar burning, be safe.鈥
When authorities interviewed Wimbish about the letter, he blamed it on the voter, according to court records.
He鈥檚 charged with mailing a bomb threat, conveying false information about a bomb threat, mailing a threatening letter and making false statements to FBI agents.
There was no lawyer listed for Wimbish in court records. A message was left at a number listed for him in public records.
Trump to take the stage soon in Pittsburgh
The event at PPG Paints Arena will serve as Trump鈥檚 campaign鈥檚 closing message of the race, aides say.
While the arena鈥檚 upper level seating has been blocked off 鈥 and some seats remain empty in the lower sections 鈥 Trump has drawn a crowd of thousands to the venue, which has a capacity of 14,000 to 19,000, depending on how the seating is arranged.
Trump has been drawing smaller crowds in the closing stretch of the campaign than he did in previous races.
That could be, in part, because he has been returning again and again to the same battleground states, sometimes speaking in the same places 鈥 and even the same venues 鈥 where he spoke just days earlier.

A new American citizen on the Texas border votes for the first time
After living in the U.S. for nearly 40 years and never attempting to seek citizenship, Carlos Salas said he was compelled to 鈥渨ake up鈥 to his civic duties.
He resides in Alamo, Texas, just 8 miles (13 kilometers) from the border. This year, at age 78, he voted for the first time in his life.
Born in Veracruz, Mexico, Salas arrived in the U.S. at age 14. He has spent the past 30 years as a photographer traveling around the Rio Grande Valley, the southernmost part of Texas. He photographs families at special events like quincea帽eras. Occasionally he walks to Nuevo Progreso, Tamaulipas in Mexico to pick up a souvenir for his wife.
Salas said the fear of being returned to Mexico kept him from seeking citizenship and the right to vote. But this year he said he鈥檚 driven to the polls out of concern for those who, like him, are hardworking immigrants seeking safety and shelter in the U.S.

Harris gets out her own vote in Pennsylvania
Harris went canvassing in Pennsylvania on the eve of Election Day, visiting two homes in Reading as she campaigned throughout the state.
Harris, and the considerable motorcade she travels in, pulled up to a home where three people waited for the Democratic nominee.
鈥淗i guys,鈥 Harris said.
鈥淥h my God,鈥 said the family, seeing the vice president on their porch.
鈥淪orry for the intrusion,鈥 Harris added. The family said they planned to vote on Tuesday morning and that they had made up their minds, but they did not say who they were backing.
Harris, accompanied by two campaign volunteers, then walked a few doors down, where a woman told the vice president, 鈥淵ou already got my vote,鈥 and gave her a hug as dogs barked in the background. She told the vice president that her husband, who shook Harris鈥 hand as he emerged from the house, planned to vote Tuesday.
鈥淚t鈥檚 the day before the election and I just wanted to come by and say I hope to earn your vote,鈥 Harris told the woman.
The Democratic nominee could also be heard telling the women about needing to 鈥渇ind common ground,鈥 a familiar line from her stump speech.
Trump arrives in Pittsburgh
Trump has arrived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, for his third of four rallies today.
Supporters have gathered on the streets near the venue to watch his motorcade pass.
Voter Voice: 鈥榃e cannot truly be free until every person has the same human rights鈥
鈥淚鈥檓 anxious. I think we all are,鈥 said Nancy Julian of Pittsburgh.
But she said it was important to turn out to support Harris, whom she said she has admired since Harris was on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Bradyn Yahner of Altoona, wearing a camo-style Harris-Walz hat, said he shares the vice presidential nominee鈥榮 affinity for hunting and camping.
鈥淵ou can be a supporter of those things as far as guns go and still understand that the U.S. does need better gun restrictions,鈥 he said.
He was attending with Katrina Shedd of Ebensburg, Pennsylvania. They were feeling hopeful about the election, saying the energy here is even stronger than at an earlier Harris rally they attended in Erie.
鈥淚鈥檓 here fighting for women鈥檚 rights, gay people鈥檚 rights, trans people鈥檚 rights,鈥 Shedd said. 鈥淲e cannot truly be free until every person has the same human rights.鈥
Sarah Kesner of Pulaski, Pennsylvania, said she was backing Harris because she supports democracy, 鈥渁nd I don鈥檛 support bullies, and he (Trump) always has been one.鈥
Her son, Joshua Kesner of Hubbard, Ohio, wearing a 鈥淰eterans for Harris 鈥 T-shirt, said the vote was important to him as an Army veteran.
鈥淲e all, when we join the military, take an oath to defend the Constitution,鈥 he said. 鈥淭hat means voting for the candidate who will defend the Constitution, rather than trample on it.鈥
Harris went to Reading to make a point about Trump. She left with a bag of plantains, cassava and rice
Harris, flanked by Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, mingled with diners at Old San Juan Cafe, a Puerto Rican restaurant in Reading, a Northeast Pennsylvania city with a large concentration of Puerto Ricans. She asked about school, the restaurant and what kind of food she should take to-go.
Harris did not mention a comedian telling a recent crowd at a Trump rally that Puerto Rico was a 鈥渇loating island of garbage,鈥 but she didn鈥檛 need to 鈥 the scene of Harris ordering Puerto Rican food with imagery from the island everywhere was enough to prove the point.
The Democratic presidential nominee eagerly looked on as the owner walked her through what they had to offer. At first, she said she was interested in a 鈥渟picy taquito,鈥 but after going through the rice, plantains, pork and cassava, Harris added, 鈥淚 want that too. I鈥檓 very hungry. I don鈥檛 get to eat as often as I like.鈥 She paid for her order with a credit card.
鈥淚鈥檓 very happy to be here,鈥 Harris said. 鈥淚鈥檝e been reading about your restaurant.鈥
After she and Ocasio Cortez touted the Latino owner of the cafe and the work that went into the restaurant, Harris said: 鈥淚 have a saying, I eat no for breakfast. Which means I don鈥檛 hear no.鈥
Pennsylvania has become a key part of the final day of the campaign between Harris and Trump. Both were in Reading on Monday.
In some states, millions more people are voting early compared with 2020
Millions more Americans in some states chose to vote early compared to the last presidential election, despite the unusually high advance voting due the COVID-19 pandemic at the time.
In New York, nearly 3 million advance ballots have been counted compared to just over 1.5 million advance voters in 2020. This year, advance votes amongst registered Republicans in Louisiana, as well as the battleground states of Florida and North Carolina, outpaced 2020鈥檚 numbers.
In those same states, and in the additionally closely-watched Arizona, advance votes totals amongst registered Republicans is greater than Democrats right now.
Voter Voice: 鈥業鈥檓 really excited to vote鈥
Alondra Cortes, who attended Harris鈥 Allentown rally, said it made her cry with happiness just hours before Cortes 鈥 a first-time voter born and raised in Puerto Rico 鈥 becomes the first in her family to vote in a mainland U.S. election.
鈥淭his is my first rally ever. I am a first time voter, so it鈥檚 really, really nice. Some tears were shed. I鈥檓 really excited to vote,鈥 Cortes, 21, said.
鈥淪he鈥檚 really inspirational, especially for a minority like me, so I鈥檓 really excited to vote for her,鈥 she added, speaking about Harris.
Cortes, a senior at Moravian University, said she has class in the morning and then work, but she鈥檒l go vote with her friends and hopes to celebrate after that, since they鈥檙e all first-time voters.
Harris drives over an hour to put focus on disparaging joke told at Trump rally
Harris鈥 supporters were chanting 鈥淪i se puede鈥 and 鈥淜amala鈥 as the vice president鈥檚 motorcade pulled up to Old San Juan Cafe, a Puerto Rican restaurant in Reading, Pennsylvania.
Harris鈥 stop, her third of the day in Pennsylvania, has a clear focus: Call out Trump for allowing a comedian at his recent rally at Madison Square Garden to label Puerto Rico a 鈥渇loating island of garbage.鈥 Trump has not apologized for the comedian鈥檚 comment, but his campaign attempted to distance itself from the remark.
That didn鈥檛 work, and the comment has dominated the closing days of the campaign.
Harris, who has four scheduled events in the commonwealth, drove over an hour from Allentown to visit the cafe in Reading, a Northeast Pennsylvania city with a large concentration of Puerto Ricans and other Latinos. Supporters lined the streets as Harris arrived at the restaurant.
Voter Voice: 鈥楽he鈥檚 the only one who can do something for this country鈥
A crowd gathered outside Old San Juan Cafe, a Puerto Rican restaurant in Reading, Pennsylvania, to catch a glimpse of Harris.
鈥淚鈥檓 so proud that she鈥檚 in our neighborhood,鈥 said Juan Rivas, 66, a Dominican American who lives just a block from the restaurant. 鈥淪he鈥檚 the only who can do something for this country. I don鈥檛 think Trump with his hypocrisy, and his hate of Hispanics can do anything. He only thinks about himself and the rich, and even when he tries to benefit himself, he leaves a trail of debts behind him.鈥
Trump had also been in Reading earlier Monday, hosting a rally at Santander Arena.
Rivas said that he has several Puerto Rican friends and they were all equally disgusted by comments made against the island during Trump鈥檚 rally.
鈥淲hatever they say about a Hispanic, they say about me,鈥 said the retiree, who had already mailed his vote for Harris.
His wife walked out of their home to take photos of Harris supporters that waited for Harris behind a police line.
鈥淚鈥檓 so excited,鈥 Claudia Guzman, 52 said. 鈥淚 never thought the vice president would come here. Tomorrow I vote for Kamala. Women are coming to power.鈥
Elon Musk鈥檚 $1 million-a-day voter sweepstakes can proceed, Pennsylvania judge says
The that 鈥檚 political action committee is hosting in swing states can continue through Tuesday鈥檚 presidential election, a Pennsylvania judge ruled Monday.
Common Pleas Court Judge Angelo Foglietta 鈥 ruling after Musk鈥檚 lawyers said the winners are paid spokespeople and not chosen by chance 鈥 did not immediately explain his reasoning.
Musk鈥檚 lawyers, defending the effort, called it 鈥渃ore political speech鈥 given that participants sign a petition endorsing the U.S. Constitution. They also said that Krasner鈥檚 bid to shut it down under Pennsylvania law was moot because there would be no more Pennsylvania winners before the program ends Tuesday.
District Attorney Larry Krasner, a Democrat, believes the giveaways violate state election law and contradict during an appearance with 鈥檚 campaign in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on Oct. 19: 鈥淲e鈥檙e going to be awarding a million dollars randomly to people who have signed the petition every day from now until the election,鈥 Musk vowed.

After threats against election workers, Nevada county puts panic buttons in all polling places
Threats against election workers have gotten so bad that all polling places in Washoe County, Nevada, have a 鈥減anic button鈥 that workers can hit to automatically call 911.
But Andrew McDonald, the deputy registrar of voters in the swing county of half a million people, says there鈥檚 only been one incident in nearly two weeks of in-person early voting that required someone to hit the panic button.
That incident, McDonald said at a press conference, involved a voter at one of the county鈥檚 24 early voting sites who would not remove his hat when asked by a worker, who was following state law prohibiting campaign signs or paraphernalia within 100 feet (30 meters) of a polling station.
鈥淎 few other voters in line sort of ganged up on the site manager,鈥 McDonald said. But when police arrived, he added, 鈥渢hey calmed down and were able to vote.鈥
Washoe has become a hotbed for election conspiracy theorists who believe Trump鈥檚 lies that the 2020 election was stolen from him. Still, McDonald noted that the panic button incident is the only significant one that鈥檚 happened during the early vote period, when 90,000 people cast their ballots.
鈥淚 get an incident report daily,鈥 McDonald said, 鈥渁nd there haven鈥檛 been that many incidents.鈥
Thousands await Harris鈥 arrival at Pittsburgh-area rally
Thousand gathered Monday afternoon at the Carrie Blast Furnaces in the Pittsburgh area in anticipation of Harris鈥 arrival.
They listened to upbeat music as a DJ led in singing 鈥淒on鈥檛 Stop Believing 鈥 and dancing to 鈥淐upid Shuffle鈥 in the shadow of historic steelworks in Rankin.

Georgia Supreme Court rules ballots voters received late must be returned by Election Day
Georgia鈥檚 highest court on Monday ruled ballots in the state鈥檚 third-largest county must be returned by Election Day.
A previous lower court ruling would have allowed certain voters in Cobb County who received their absentee ballots late to return them after the deadline as long as they were postmarked by Tuesday.
The county, just north of Atlanta, didn鈥檛 mail out absentee ballots to some voters who had requested them until late last week. Georgia law says absentee ballots must be received by the close of polls on Election Day.
The Georgia Supreme Court ruling means the affected residents must vote in person on Election Day, or get their absentee ballots to the county elections office by 7 p.m. that day.
The high court ruling instructs county election officials to notify the affected voters by email, text message and in a public message on the county election board鈥檚 website. And it orders officials to keep separate and sealed any ballots received after the Election Day deadline but before 5 p.m. Friday.
Harris subtly tags Trump as backward-looking because of health care repeal
Harris subtly accused Trump of being backward-looking because of his attempts to repeal the Affordable Care Act.
鈥淭o those certain individuals who still want to get rid of the Affordable Care Act,鈥 Harris said on Monday in Allentown, Pennsylvania, referring to the 2010 health care law, 鈥淭o them, we say we are not going back.鈥
The comment led to loud cheers of 鈥淲e鈥檙e not going back鈥 from the crowd in Allentown.
Trump tried multiple times as president to overturn the ACA, only failing because of one vote from the late Sen. John McCain.
Those attempts were rekindled last week when House Speaker Mike Johnson was asked at an event, 鈥淣o Obamacare?鈥 Republican leaders answered: 鈥淣o Obamacare.鈥
Trump responded to the comment by saying he doesn鈥檛 want to end Obamacare, despite repeatedly trying to do so in office.
