With the November 5th Election looming, national polls indicate that it will come down to about seven swing states that will determine the next president of the United States. The battleground states include Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada. Dr. Kent Redfield, Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Illinois says the razor-thin margins between the two candidates will be swayed by whichever party garners enough enthusiasm to win the ground game on voting day.

Redfield calls for less ambiguity in this election as legislation and officials are scrutinized in the wake of previous years' confusion around vote counting, and election security.

Even though the plans and personnel are in place for a safe and secure election, massive voter turnout, mail-in ballots, and the speed at which those are counted could mean an undetermined winner on the night of the election.
