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.

Writer and director Noel Clarke abandons the Bafta-winning realism of Kidulthood and Adulthood in favour of clever but ultimately vacuous storytelling.
The action centres on four ordinary teenage girls. Well, almost: only Shannon (Ophelia Lovibond) conveys anything like a set of emotions, as she teeters on London Bridge above the water. For the rest, a long weekend of gratuitous underwear shots and Pringles product placement awaits. Cassandra (Tamsin Egerton) jets off to New York for an audition and some light shopping; leggy lesbian Kerrys (Shanika Warren-Markland) steals her flat keys for a tryst in her panic room. Checkout girl Jo (Emma Roberts) is probably included to conjure a sense of believability, but it's a thankless task.
