Illustration For US Election Day

File photo dated August 31, 2010 - The desk of President Barack Obama sits on top of a new rug in the Oval Office at the White House in Washington DC, USA. Obama tonight will give the second Oval Office address of his presidency to mark the transition from a U.S. combat role in Iraq, a shift that won't end the risks to administration policy or to American troops. - American voters go to the polls on Tuesday to choose their next president. US election results are sometimes declared within hours of the polls closing, but this year's tight contest could mean a longer wait. Democratic Vice-President Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump, the former president, have been running neck-and-neck for weeks. Photo by Brendan Smialowski/ABACAPRESS.COM
