Your support helps us to tell the story

This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

ALSO from the New York Times, we learn that Americans, after trying to exterminate the species for three centuries, have now fallen in love with the wolf. You may for dollars 20 sponsor one of the creatures at the Idaho Wolf Education Center and receive a certificate with a photograph of your chosen wolf. So meet Motomo: 'a lovely, even- tempered, jet black wolf with big feet and a big heart'. 'All the better,' intones the Times, 'to love you with.'
