Barack Obama leads in vote US presidential Elections Live Results

The major party candidates for president of the United States are campaigning almost non-stop in the final hours before Election Day.

Senator McCain held a town hall meeting in New Hampshire Sunday to stress the differences between himself and Senator Obama, who, campaigning in Ohio, called on supporters to help end what he called divisive politics by electing him president.

Both Democrat Senator Barack Obama and Republican Senator John McCain are focusing on a handful of key states.

They include Pennsylvania and Ohio - neighboring states that could have a big impact on the election.

Barack Obama leads in vote-rich Pennsylvania, but the race is tightening. And that is why John McCain is making last-minute personal appeals to undecided voters in the state, while at the same time seeking to energize his own Republican base.

At a rally in the Philadelphia suburbs, he predicted victory.

"We are a couple of points behind in Pennsylvania," said John McCain. "The pundits have written us off, just like they have done before. My friends, the Mac is back!"

At the same time, his running mate - Alaska Governor Sarah Palin - was campaigning in Ohio where some polls show the race virtually tied. No Republican has ever won the White House without winning Ohio, and the state has voted with the winning presidential candidate in the past 11 presidential elections.
