The outcome of the US presidential election comes down to voters in seven key battleground states.

This year's swing states are Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

With its 19 electoral votes, Pennsylvania is the largest prize among the battleground states and an important piece of both campaigns’ path to victory.
