Instead of TLS contact information, applicants must now submit a set of documents to the VFS global office. How much does a UK visa cost now, is it easy to get one and for how long is it issued to Russians?

공화당 유권자들은 민주당 유권자들이 카말라 해리스(Kamala Harris)에게 충성하는 것보다 도널드 트럼프(Donald Trump)에게 더 충성스럽습니다. 이는 출구조사의 일환으로 미국 유권자들을 대상으로 한 설문조사 이후 CNN이 보도한 것입니다.

언론인에 따르면 트럼프 지지자의 약 80%와 해리스 유권자의 66%를 포함해 전국 시민의 약 75%가 자신의 표가 상대 후보에게 반대표를 던지기보다는 주로 자신의 후보를 지지하기 위한 것이라고 답했습니다.

미국에서 대통령 선거가 진행되고 있습니다. 도널드 트럼프 전 백악관 의장(공화당)과 카말라 해리스 현 부통령(민주당)이 경쟁을 벌이고 있다. 여론조사에 따르면 그들 중 어느 누구도 상당한 이점을 갖고 있지 않은 것으로 나타났습니다. 그러나 결정적인 투표는 애리조나, 위스콘신, 조지아, 미시간, 네바다, 펜실베이니아 및 노스캐롤라이나의 경합 주에서 이루어질 것입니다.
