Day: November 3, 2024

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are campaigning in swing states, with just two days to go before America decides its next president. Newshour’s James Coomarasamy is in Milwaulkee, a swing state and visits a food bank in Wisconsin. We also hear what issues are important to people. Also on the programme, Angry residents are hostile towards King Felipe of Spain as he arrives in Valencia badly hit by recent floods. And we hear about the deal that saw one of the greatest treasures in Persian art brought back to Tehran: The Book of King, Shahnameh, exchanged for a de Kooning painting.
