Extraordinary security measures have been put in place to ensure a peaceful US election 2024 and to address concerns about violence against election staff.

The National Guard has been deployed in Oregon, Washington, and Nevada, while the FBI has set up a command post to monitor potential threats.

Security has been heightened at nearly 100,000 polling stations across the U.S., with specially trained armed teams assigned to protect election workers.

To safeguard election staff, 1,000 panic buttons have been ordered.

Reports suggest that misinformation could pose a risk to election workers, their families, and the integrity of the process. In Washington, there are concerns of uncertainty lasting through election day and beyond.

Meanwhile, the cybersecurity chief warned that foreign adversaries are spreading disinformation on a larger scale than ever before.

He described misinformation as a “volcano” aimed at the American public, stating that it continues to be a major threat.

Meanwhile, voting for the 47th President of the United States is set to begin in just a few hours, with over 79 million people having already cast their ballots, and the remaining voters will choose their preferred candidate today.

To secure victory in the US election 2024, a candidate needs at least 270 electoral votes out of a total of 538. The race between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris is expected to be fiercely competitive.

The outcome will largely depend on the results from seven key swing states. Voters will also be selecting all 435 members of the House of Representatives and 34 Senators.
