NEW YORK, November 5. /TASS/. A gas leak at a voting station prevented some residents of the town of Northville in the swing state of Michigan to take part in the presidential elections, according to Associated Press.

The voting station was closed at noon, and the voters were redirected to another place in suburbs of Detroit. The details of the incident are being investigated.

The US is holding election on November 5, with voters choosing the president, governors in 11 states and two US territories, a third of the Senate, and all members of the House of Representatives. Republican candidate Donald Trump, who served as president from 2017 to 2021, is competing against Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, who has been vice president since January 2021. Trump, having lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden, is seeking a return to the White House.
