JOHNSTOWN/PEMBROKE PINES - President Donald Trump and Democratic rival Joe Biden fanned out to critical battleground states on Tuesday as the presidential race entered a final, intense phase amid record numbers of early votes cast.

Mr Trump is battling the clock. Almost 12 million ballots have been cast so far, including more than 1.6 million in Florida, according to the US Elections Project at the University of Florida, shattering previous records. Mr Biden has said that he wants to ban new oil and gas production on federal lands, but not ban fracking outright - although his statements on the issue have at times been confusing.

The President's schedule, however, sends him to areas friendly to him, suggesting that his campaign is concerned with mobilising his conservative base rather than reaching out to undecided voters, many of who live in the nation's suburbs. They were the President's first negative Covid-19 tests announced by the White House since Mr Trump said on Oct 2 that he had contracted the virus. In a memo, White House physician Dr Sean Conley did not say when the tests were conducted.
