WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - More than 30 million Americans have already cast ballots in this year's presidential election, outpacing 2016 early voting by a factor of five, just as Democratic challenger Joe Biden and President Donald Trump battle it out in tight races in at least ten swing states, including Florida and Pennsylvania.

US President Donald Trump has narrowed Democratic challenger Joe Biden’s lead in crucial battleground states two weeks before the election. His deficit in Florida was reduced by over two points, leaving Biden with an edge of only 1.4%, according to poll aggregator Realcearpolitics.com (RCP), as of Monday.

The former vice president is ahead in Pennsylvania by 4.4% (49.2% to 44.8%), nearly three points lower than where he stood a week ago.

Biden, as of Monday, leads Trump nationally by 8.9%, a 1.1-point dip from where he stood one week ago, according to the Realclearpolitics.com (RCP) average of 9 recent surveys. However, the electoral college format requires candidates to win statewide contests.
