House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries told "Good Morning America" on Monday that Democrats are "on the right side" of the presidential election's most pressing issues.

"The extreme MAGA Republicans have clearly and unequivocally articulated what they will do to America moving forward," Jeffries said.

"They will take a blow torch to social security, they will take a blow torch to Medicare, they will take a blow torch to the Affordable Care Act," Jeffries said.

Vice President Kamala Harris, Jeffries said, is "closing with a positive vision" while former President Donald Trump and his Republican party are "trying to tear us apart."

Jeffries will become House speaker if Democrats win back control of the chamber this week.

"The majority of current House Republicans voted not to certify the election in 2020," Jeffries said. "My colleagues on the other side of the aisle don't seem to be capable of unequivocally saying that they will certify the election and the verdict that is rendered by the American people."

"As House Democrats, that's what we will do," Jeffries added.

"We believe in democracy even when we disagree with the outcome. That's been part of what's made America the greatest democracy in the history of the world."

Men and women have been voting differently in presidential elections for decades. But could the gender gap be the deciding factor in this year's razor-thin race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump?

The final ABC News/Ipsos poll before Election Day, released on Sunday, found the gender gap among all likely voters to be 16 points. Harris had a 11-point advantage among women, 53% to 42%, while Trump had a 5-point advantage among men, 50% to 45%.

The gender gap has averaged 19 points in presidential exit polls since 1996. Some observers, though, believe it could reach a new level in 2024.

"With a woman versus a man at the top of the ticket and with the prominence of the abortion issue in the wake of the Dobbs decision, we could have a historically large gender gap approaching a gender chasm this year," Whit Ayres, a longtime Republican pollster, told ABC News.

The formula to success for Harris would be to win women by more than she loses men. The reverse is true for Trump.

"When you're talking about dead heat races in seven swing states, anything could be the deciding factor," Ayres said.

Americans are voting as two major conflicts rage and others threaten to erupt.

The showdown between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump will in many ways be a choice between foreign policy continuity and change.

Harris has largely stuck to President Joe Biden's world agenda, one in which the outgoing leader sought to revive traditional American statesmanship after four turbulent years of Trump.

Trump is bidding for a second term with twin promises of "America first" with "peace through strength," accusing Biden, Harris and many other leaders of facilitating global instability through weakness and incompetence.

The Democratic ticket is framing Trump as a chaotic leader easily taken advantage of by more wily foreign adversaries.

As Americans head to the polls on Tuesday, the world will be watching as closely as ever.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz made his final campaign stop in Gastonia, North Carolina, on Sunday -- where former President Donald Trump held a rally the day before.

Walz told an energized crowd the state is crucial to Vice President Kamala Harris' hopes for victory on Tuesday.

"We're going to win this thing, but we haven't won it yet," Walz said at RayNathan's, an iconic local barbecue restaurant in Gastonia.

"And for all of you, it's a privilege -- you are ground zero of how this thing can be won. Right through here, we win North Carolina, this thing's over."

The Trump campaign, Walz said, is closing out the campaign cycle in "absolute disaster, telling us that this country doesn't work, descending into madness and darkness and division, disrespecting our fellow citizens in Puerto Rico and across this country."

Walz also addressed Trump's Sunday suggestion that he shouldn't have left the White House after his defeat by President Joe Biden.

"Well, he didn't learn it then, but he's going to learn it on Tuesday," Walz said.
