US goes to polls today

President Barack Obama joined the Clinton family and his wife at a massive party rally in Philadelphia on the eve of Election Day.

With hours to go before the American people decide, Hillary Clinton was rated by one of the last opinion polls of having a 90 percent chance of defeating Republican Donald Trump in the race for the White House.

President Obama added his own message of support.

“We now have the chance to elect a 45th President who will build on our progress, who will finish the job, who already has the respect of leaders around the world and the people they serve. Who is smart and is steady and is tested. Someone who comes to this office as well prepared as anyone who has ever run – more than me, more than Bill… the next President of the United States, Hillary Clinton.”

Meanwhile, both candidates, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have been crisscrossing America in a final push for votes before Election Day.

Both have been holding rallies in the battleground states of North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Michigan.

Mrs. Clinton urged voters to back a "hopeful, inclusive, big-hearted America" while Mr. Trump told supporters they had a "magnificent chance to beat the corrupt system".

Polls give Democrat Mrs. Clinton a four-point lead over Republican Mr. Trump.
