Texas already registers more voter turnout than in 2016 | The pandemic runs rampant three days after the presidential elections with more than nine million infections


Three days before the presidential elections in the United States, some parts of the country register very high participation rates.

Texas has been one of those who has broken records in these elections.

There, more than nine million people have already voted in advance, a figure higher than the total for 2016. Polls in the second most populous state, which contributes 38 of the 270 electoral votes needed to get the presidency, give the president a slight advantage Donald Trump.

As the campaign enters the final stretch, the pandemic in the country continues to rampage with more than nine million infections.

This Friday alone, at least 98,000 new cases were registered.

The unleashed advance of the coronavirus is pushing the chaotic health system of the United States to the limit, and that is why it remains at the center of the speeches at the rallies of both parties.

Donald Trump has a busy schedule this Saturday.

The president is scheduled to leave the White House at 10:00 am from the East Coast of the United States to fly on Marine One to the Andrews military base, from where he will travel on the presidential plane to Pennsylvania

.

Throughout the day there will be four rallies in total: at noon, at 12:15, at 17:30 and at 20:15.

All of them in Pennsylvania.

At 11 p.m. the president will return to Washington.

Trump has thrown himself into one last

sprint

as Biden reaches the home stretch with a comfortable poll lead of nearly eight points over the president, according to the Real Clear Politics national poll average.

But the memory of 2016 is very present in the ranks of the Democratic Party and Joe Biden's agenda, so far low profile due to the precautions required by the coronavirus, is going to overturn in states like Wisconsin or Michigan, where they crashed four ago years.
