US presidential rivals visit key swing states

US presidential rivals visit key swing states
US presidential rivals Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are spending the day before the election visiting key swing states and making final pitches to voters.

Romney went to Florida today, where polls suggest he has the edge, and then to Virginia, New Hampshire and Ohio.

Obama appeared in Iowa, Wisconsin and Ohio, joined at rallies by Bruce Springsteen and rapper Jay Z.

The election will be decided in just a handful of states, with Ohio in particular seen as crucial to victory.

Obama and Romney are running almost neck and neck in national polls, in a campaign that has cost more than 2 billion US dollars.

But surveys of the nine or so battleground states that will determine the election show Obama narrowly ahead.

Thirty million Americans have already cast their ballot through early voting across 34 states.

In the 2008 presidential election, 130 million people voted.

Top US journalist, Lea Thompson who is currently conducting training in Fiji said that the presidential race is so close.
