Washington, Nov 3 (IANS): Ahead of Americans heading to the polls to cast their ballots on Tuesday in one of the most-anticipated presidential elections, Democratic nominee Joe Biden was leading against President Donald Trump in most of the national and state-level polls.

On the eve of Election Day, Biden was in the lead in the battleground states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, Ohio and Georgia, which all voted for Trump in the 2016 election, The Hill news website reported.

The FiveThirtyEight forecasting model has given Biden a 90 percent chance of winning the election.

Currently, Biden was ahead of Trump in a 52 percent to 44 per cent vote nationally.

In Pennsylvania, where the two candidates spent the weekend campaigning in a last-ditch efforts to garner votes, an NBC News-Marist poll released on Monday place Biden ahead with a 5-point lead, 51 percent to 46 percent.

Meanwhile, the RealClearPolitics polling average gave the former President a 4.3 percentage point lead over the President.

But the state's results won't be immediately due to the large number of early and mail-in votes that have already been cast.

In Michigan, where Trump campaigned on Monday and Biden made a joint appearance with former President Barack Obama on October 31, the latter was ahead in most of the polls, with a 7 percentage point lead.

Meanwhile in Wisconsin, a traditionally Democratic state which flipped in Trump's favour four years ago, Biden had a commanding lead in most of the surveys conducted last month.

The Real Clear Politics average gave him a 6.6 percentage point lead over Trump, while according to FiveThirtyEight, the former President has a a 94 per cent chance of winning the state.

In Florida, a make or break state, Biden and Trump were neck and neck despite the former President leading in several polls.

A Quinnipiac University poll released on Monday showed Biden up 5 points in Florida, 47 per cent to 43 per cent.

The RealClearPolitics average shows the former Vice President leading Trump by just 1.4 percentage points.

In Minnesota Ohio, and Nevada, the former President was leading by 4.3, 4 and 3.6 percentage points, respectively.

Meanwhile in Arizona, both candidates were tied at 48 per cent among likely voters, according to an NBC News-Marist poll released on Monday.

In North Carolina, Trump was leading Biden by half a percentage point, the RealClearPolitics Polling average revealed, while an Emerson College poll released last week shows the candidates tied.

    God The Father on election and the mass media in a message to Maureen dated October 19, 2020

    Public


    Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says: "Each person's heart is his own kingdom. As with any kingdom, there are marauders seeking to destroy it. In this case today (the election),* the vandals are the mass media who are trying to capture the heart of man, the nation** and the world with untruth. Therefore, it is important that each heart defines the Truth and tenaciously clings to it. The Truth is My Commandments which have outlined for you the way to your salvation. Ideas which compromise this goal are evil and must not be acted upon. Untruths, when given credence through mass media, tear down the walls of the hearts struggling to decide what is Truth and what is not."

    "I am the Author of Truth - of My Commandments. I do not, nor never will, support anarchy, sanctuaries of violence or oppose a person's right to protect himself. I do not support any attempt to destroy the foundation of history which is the basis of support of the heart of this country. Only evil would encourage and support such things. As Author of the Commandments, I would never encourage lawlessness. Keep these Truths in mind in every future moment. I am the Truth."

    God The Father on once again I tell you do not believe or be misled by polls in this presidential race in a message to Maureen dated October 17, 2020

    Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says: "Children, once again, I tell you, do not believe or be misled by polls in this presidential race.* An official poll does not represent what is in hearts across America. Have faith that all things are possible and keep praying. Remember always that it is Satan who is the king of lies."

    "As with everything in life, you must search out the Truth and cling to it with courage. This is true not only in politics, but in all your choices in life. The Truth of My Commandments must be your standard. My Commandments are the rule of life I ask you to cling to in order to help you to make righteous decisions. Every choice bears its own consequences. In this particular election, the stakes are high. Satan is confounded by those who are tenacious in the Truth. Do not be manipulated by a figurehead who seems to have the polls in his favor. Put your choice to good use. Be My instrument in the world. Assist Me in helping to build up My Kingdom on earth."
