US election - Trump and Clinton in final scramble to win votes



Meanwhile, in Raleigh, North Carolina, Mrs Clinton ended her campaign by urging voters to choose a "hopeful, big-hearted America"

Speaking in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Mr Trump vowed to unite the US. 
He said: "Just imagine what our country could accomplish if we started working together as one people, under one God, saluting one American flag."

Close of play for campaigning
Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have now concluded their last rallies in a final push for votes ahead of Election Day.

Hillary Clinton: I proved I have the stamina to be commander-in-chief during the presidential debates



Hillary Clinton: It is not just my name and Donald Trump's name on the ballot. Every issue you care about at stake.

Hillary Clinton has taken the stage in Philadelphia.

Barack Obama: "I'm betting that tomorrow, most moms and dads won't cast their votes for someone who denigrates their daughters. I'm betting that young people turn out to vote, because your future is at stake."




Barack Obama: "In 2008, you gave me a chance - a skinny guy with a funny name."

Barack Obama says social media has "muddied facts" and "deepened divisions" in America.



Barack Obama says Hillary Clinton will deliver for Americans in poverty and out of work - and won't "just tweet":  



More on early voting
Record levels of early voting have been reported in 23 states and the District of Columbia. The numbers are being driven by soaring turnout from Latino voters, according to Associated Press data, which could be good news for Hillary Clinton.
The latest figures show a decline in early voting amongst African Americans in North Carolina compared to 2008 and 2012. But higher turnout by Latinos, who often lean Democratic, may boost Mrs Clinton in Florida.
The Hispanic vote is also up in Nevada and Colorado, where Democrats are running near or above the pace in 2012, AP said.
The figures suggest Mr Trump may hold a slight edge in Iowa and Ohio.
