Voters to choose between two starkly different candidates in US ‘Armageddon election’

The choice for voters has never been so clear cut as Kamala Harris takes on Donald Trump for the White House

A man convicted of dozens of felonies versus a criminal prosecutor. An architect of abortion bans versus a champion of reproductive freedom. An elderly white man fixated on the past versus a mixed-race daughter of immigrants leaning into the future.

One hundred days from the US presidential election, the choice for voters has never been so clear cut. Kamala Harris, 59, the de facto Democratic nominee after the dramatic withdrawal of Joe Biden, is a progressive person of colour bidding to become the first female president in America's 248-year history.
