US election: Donald Trump makes 11th hour comeback in polls narrowing Joe Biden’s lead in battleground states

Donald Trump is making an eleventh hour comeback in the polls against Joe Biden, narrowing Mr Biden’s lead in the battleground states to be within strike distance on election eve.

The president’s blitz of back-to-back rallies around the country in the final days is paying off as he reduces Mr Biden’s lead in battleground states to an average of just 2.7 points, his best result since the end of August.

But the former Vice President still holds the advantage as both candidates make their final pitch to voters with Mr Biden holding a shrinking but still solid lead of 6.5 per cent nationally.
