How country would have divided on Norwich swing
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

The Tories would have 434 MPs, with Labour on 107, Liberal Democrats 79 and others 30.
It is assumed that there is no change to figures for the SNP, Plaid Cymru and minor party seats.
The Buckingham constituency of Speaker John Bercow is included with the Conservatives, and Glasgow North East, where there is a by-election pending, with Labour.
The calculations are based on new boundaries - coming in at the next General Election - using estimates by Professors Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher, of Plymouth University, on how voting in constituencies would have divided if the changes had been in force in 2005.
