For months, both President Donald Trump and former vice president Joe Biden, the two strongest candidates in the election, have been going all out to secure votes.
It seems that both presidential candidates are not done trying to get in some last minutes votes.
Both Biden and Trump took to popular social media app, Instagram to call on voters to vote for them.
The US president opted for a lights camera action approach - sharing a clip of himself shaking hands with important American public figures, jeering crowds, and spending time with family.
Biden on the other hand headed down a more simple road, only sharing a picture of himself and Obama with a humble caption that read:
"12 years ago, I was given the honor to serve you as Vice President alongside President @BarackObama.We accomplished so much, but I'm not done yet. Today, I'm asking you to put your faith in me once again — I won't let you down."

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that in anticipation of a protest that might ensue after the outcome of the coming United States (US) elections, the government of the nation is expected to build a massive fence around the White House.
The same fence erected during heated protests earlier in 2020, will surround the entire park including the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, the Treasury Building, Ellipse, and Lafayette Square.
The structure will cover from the 15th Street to Constitution Avenue as well as the 17th Street.
