GREAT INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL DEBATE / Elections in the United States: one vote, two Americas On Tuesday, November 5, 2024, 244 million voters are called to the polls to elect the 47th President of the United States. The outcome of the election has never been so uncertain: Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are neck and neck in the polls. Since 1787, the President of the United States has been elected every four years by indirect universal suffrage in one round. To win the election, a candidate must win the votes of at least 270 of the 538 electors. The American electoral system of "winner takes all" makes a victory in 7 key states crucial: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Iowa could also swing the result because this state, usually acquired by the Republicans, could vote mainly for Kamala Harris. Punctuated by scandals, conspiracy theories, controversial remarks and insults, the American presidential campaign has left its mark on everyone's minds. What will be the outcome? Guests: Vincent Hugeux, former senior reporter, professor at Sciences Po, Isabelle Lasserre, diplomatic correspondent at Le Figaro, On Skype (from Florida): Richard Werly, correspondent for "Blick", special envoy to the United States.
