Harris makes 2 stops at residents' homes in Reading, Pennsylvania
Vice President Kamala Harris made two stops at residents’ homes in Reading, Pennsylvania, and asked for their votes.
At the first stop, Harris greeted a family and followed them to their door so that she could talk to them.
At the second stop, Harris rang the doorbell and surprised the residents, a couple. She hugged the woman who answered the door.
“You know, it’s the day before the election, and I just wanted to come by and say I hope to earn your vote and wanted to just thank you for just giving us the time for this conversation,” Harris told the couple, before they conversed together briefly on one of her recurring campaign messages: finding common ground.
The woman said that Harris had received her vote already, and that she would be working the polls on Tuesday, while her husband would be voting on Election Day.

Russia 'manufactured and amplified' video claiming election fraud in Arizona: Officials
The intelligence community is yet again sounding the alarm on a Russian "manufactured and amplified" video claiming election fraud in Arizona -- and warned that the activity from Russia will likely focus on battleground states.
"Since our statement on Friday, the IC has been observing foreign adversaries, particularly Russia, conducting additional influence operations intended to undermine public confidence in the integrity of U.S. elections and stoke divisions among Americans," the FBI, ODNI and CISA said in a statement Monday night.
"The IC expects these activities will intensify through election day and in the coming weeks, and that foreign influence narratives will focus on swing states," officials added in the statement.
Russia, according to the intelligence community, is the “most active threat” in the election.
“Influence actors linked to Russia in particular are manufacturing videos and creating fake articles to undermine the legitimacy of the election, instill fear in voters regarding the election process, and suggest Americans are using violence against each other due to political preferences, judging from information available to the IC,” the statement continued.
"These efforts risk inciting violence, including against election officials. We anticipate Russian actors will release additional manufactured content with these themes through election day and in the days and weeks after polls close," officials said in the statement.
Content with the hallmark of a Russian influence operation includes a video claiming election fraud in Arizona and an article falsely claiming that U.S. officials across swing states plan to orchestrate election fraud using a range of tactics, such as ballot stuffing and cyberattacks.
CISA said to seek out trusted sources of information -- the election officials themselves.

Harris, Trump remain closely matched on Election Day eve: Ipsos poll
Harris is effectively tied with Trump among likely voters in an Ipsos national poll published Monday evening.
If the election were held today, half of likely voters said they would vote for Harris and 48% said Trump, the poll found.
When American adults were asked which candidate has a better plan, policy or approach to the following issues, Harris led on health care and political extremism, while Trump had more support for the economy, immigration and war/foreign issues, the poll found.
The poll was conducted Nov. 1-3 and has a margin of error of +/- 3.4 percentage points for likely voters and +/-3.0 percentage points for American adults.
