Clinton and Trump are locked in a battleground state.

(Baonghean.vn) - The race for the White House is returning to the two "battleground" states of Ohio and Pennsylvania, as on November 4th (US time), both candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump tried to convey the strongest messages to voters.

With only a few days left until the most important election day, the race for the US presidency is hotter than ever. This is especially true in states where Republican candidate Donald Trump must win, where the lead held by Democratic candidate Clinton has shifted to a close race, according to Reuters/Ipsos statistics.

The two candidates are currently neck and neck in Florida and North Carolina. Meanwhile, in Michigan, the gap between Clinton and her opponent has narrowed considerably, making the outcome difficult to predict. Ohio remains a fiercely contested state, while Pennsylvania is slightly leaning toward Clinton.

Clinton remains a popular choice among many voters and is considered a strong contender for victory in Tuesday's election. However, Trump is also seen as having a plausible path to win, especially if there is an unexpected drop in African American voter turnout compared to the 2012 election.

Meanwhile, the race between the two candidates has become more intense since FBI Director James Comey reopened the investigation into Clinton's email scandal from her time as US Secretary of State.

This announcement inadvertently became a disadvantage for candidate Clinton, while simultaneously diverting public attention away from the sexual assault allegations against billionaire Donald Trump.

With just over three days remaining until Election Day, candidates Trump and Clinton are continuing their campaign trips in their quest for the key to the White House.

Clinton reiterated her focus on developing the American economy in a speech in Pittsburgh. A campaign aide said Clinton emphasized the difference between her vision and that of her Republican opponent, stating, “It’s an economy where jobs are for everyone, not like Donald Trump’s plan, which only builds an economy where jobs are for people like him.”

Aides also said Clinton would focus on the pressures faced by women—single mothers or those who are the sole breadwinners; and working families grappling with rising costs ranging from childcare to medication. Clinton is expected to campaign in Detroit and conclude in Ohio.

Meanwhile, candidate Donald Trump, the New York real estate mogul who has never run in a political race before, is expected to visit New Hampshire, where support is very close, before heading to Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Earlier, both candidates campaigned in North Carolina on Thursday. President Barack Obama also continued his campaign in support of Clinton on Friday.

Clinton's campaign is currently trying to garner more support from African Americans – a key voting bloc in North Carolina. Meanwhile, billionaire Trump is focusing on military issues in North Carolina, home to Fort Bragg and Camp Lejeune naval base.

In Florida on Thursday, Mr. Trump met with seven military personnel who had been awarded the Medal of Honor. He praised them as brave heroes but also stated, "I wouldn't do what they did. I would be brave in a different way." Mr. Trump asserted, "I am a warrior in the financial field."
