America’s biggest gamble: Donald Trump and Kamala Harris roll the dice in Las Vegas

As Nevada voters cruise down the famous Las Vegas strip at night, a giant flashing sign gives them the latest odds on America’s ultimate gamble – Donald Trump versus Kamala Harris.

It’s a very Vegas way to wager on the country’s future, but the presidential race in this key swing state is so close that both Trump and Harris are rolling the dice here, with both flying into Vegas on Friday (AEDT) to make their closing pitch to voters.

While Trump leads comfortably in the betting markets, his lead over Harris in the real polls here in Nevada is a bare half a percentage point (48.3 to 47.8) in a race that could go either way.

Trump held a rally in working-class Henderson on the outskirts of Las Vegas while Harris held hers just hours later alongside singer Jennifer Lopez and Mexican rock band Mana in northern Vegas to court the more than one-quarter of Latino voters across the state – just days after the Puerto Rico “garbage” controversy.

Both candidates were trying to win over voters such as Jennifer Alheit, a retail manager who is still “sitting on the fence”, caught – like many Americans – between being underwhelmed by Harris yet nervous about another Trump presidency.
