| Last day of election campaign, the pandemic's deadly week, and oil takes a hit. Biden ahead in pollsA series of polls released yesterday show Democratic nominee Joe Biden leading President Donald Trump both nationally and in battleground states, though some state races remain extremely close. Trump has been on a whistle-stop rally tour of crucial states, and today speaks in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. With very high numbers of mail-in ballots to process, there are already signs that counting in battleground states may not be complete until several days after the vote. Deadly weekDeaths from Covid-19 topped 1.2 million after the most fatalities from the virus since April were reported in the last week. England will enter a second lockdown this week after cases spiked there, following similar moves in much of Europe. The director of the World Health Organization Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said he has gone into self-quarantine. There were more than 78,000 new infections in the U.S. and 826 people deaths reported yesterday.
