US Election: Voting Begins With First Ballots Cast In New Hampshire

Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, began Election Day voting at midnight on Tuesday. Six registered voters cast their ballots, following a long-standing tradition. The small town saw a 3-3 tie between Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican candidate Donald Trump.

Security Tightens Across US as Polls Open

Most polling stations nationwide opened Tuesday morning. Officials increased security, adding rooftop snipers, panic buttons for election workers, and surveillance drones to key locations. The Washington Post, quoting Xinhua, reported these extensive measures.

Voters Fear High Stakes and Potential Conflict

This election is one of the most divisive in US history. Harris and Trump have each warned of serious consequences if the other wins. Voters hold opposing views on issues like the economy, immigration, and abortion. An APA survey found 77% of Americans feel stressed about the country’s future, and 74% worry about possible violence.

Residents of Dixville Notch voiced a call for unity. “We need to come together,” said voter Scott Maxwell. Annmarie Pintal, another voter, urged both candidates to accept results gracefully.
