Election live updates: Trump and Harris hit swing states as poll shows virtual tie

Kamala Harris shares opinion on Trump’s ‘ugly’ words towards her

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are still virtually tied in the seven key battleground states according to the latest Washington Post/Schar School poll. Harris has a narrow lead in the Blue Wall state of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, as well as in Georgia. Trump is ahead in Arizona and North Carolina, while they are tied in Nevada.

The former president spent Sunday working the fry cooker at a branch of McDonald’s – the latest bizarre moment in a campaign that has increasingly become a tour of personal vendettas and aimless grudges, despite his aides’ best efforts to keep him on track.

The Republican presidential nominee has become obsessed with the fact that his Democratic opponent worked in one of its restaurants when she was a student.

CBS News has meanwhile hit back at the former president over his repeated false claims that its show 60 Minutes edited its recent interview with Harris to make her answers appear more favorable.

In a statement, the show insisted its episodes are cut to be “clear, accurate and on point” and never “deceitful”.

Harris meanwhile spent the weekend celebrating her 60th birthday while Trump raised eyebrows with a crude anecdote about golfer Arnold Palmer’s manhood.

Pennsylvania rally not first time Trump has shared vulgar Arnold Palmer story

The first time Trump went to campaign in Latrobe, Pennsylvania – Palmer’s hometown – in September 2020, he is said to have recounted a story of admiring the legendary golfer’s naked body to his team before traveling to the city.

Ariana Baio has the story.

Exonerated Central Park Five sue Trump for defamation over comments at presidential debate

The Central Park Five, who now call themselves the Exonerated Five, have filed a defamation lawsuit against Donald Trump over his remarks during last month’s presidential debate.

During the September 10 showdown between Trump and Kamala Harris, Trump said that the five men — Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise — pleaded guilty when they were tried in connection with the assault and rape of a woman who had been running in Central Park on April 19, 1989, and that the victim died.

The former president said during the debate: “They admitted — they said, they pled guilty. And I said, well, if they pled guilty they badly hurt a person, killed a person ultimately. And if they pled guilty — then they pled we’re not guilty.”

Each of them men pleaded not guilty during their trials, and the victim did not die.

In the complaint, they said that Trump’s statements are ‘demonstrably false,” adding, “Plaintiffs never pled guilty to any crime and were subsequently cleared of all wrongdoing. Further, the victims of the Central Park assaults were not killed.”

The complaint argues the men have “suffered injuries as a result of Defendant Trump’s false and defamatory statements.”

At the time of the attack and the trial, the five were teenagers and maintained their innocence throughout and during their time in jail. Trump inserted himself into the narrative by taking out large newspaper ads calling for the return of the death penalty.

In 2002, they were exonerated after DNA evidence linked a serial rapist to the attack. They received a legal settlement from New York City of $41m.
