US Presidential Elections update

On Thursday, President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden engaged in the second Presidential Debate. Debate moderator Kristen Welker appreciated both the parties on their demeanour. After the end of the debate, CNN reported that 53% of the voters on the poll who watched the debate said Joe Biden had won the debate and only 39% of the voters mentioned that Trump won the debate. 

Another report by the BBC mentioned that both the candidates are cutting it quite close and that Trump might have an advantage and win the elections this time as well. The report also added that all the statics that were recorded seemed to replicate the exact static during Trump vs Clinton US Presidential Elections in 2016. The election will be held on 3 November.
