With the first polling places about to close in what is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/11/41748843/trump-holds-edge-in-betting-markets-on-election-day-while-experts-call-tight-race-for-harris">expected to be a neck-and-neck election night</a>, reports from Georgia and Michigan say those two swing states are seeing record-high turnout.
What Happened: Turnout in Philadelphia is also reported to be extremely high, with Reuters reporting turnout as much as 50% higher in some precincts than in 2020. A big win in Philadelphia would go a long way toward delivering Pennsylvania &#8211; the largest and tightest swing state &#8211; to Kamala Harris.
At 4:39 p.m. EDT, Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social: &#8220;A lot of talk about massive CHEATING in Philadelphia. Law Enforcement coming!!!&#8221; 
A Philadelphia police spokesman <a href="https://fortune.com/2024/11/05/donald-trump-claims-cheating-police-philadelphia-pennsylvania/">told Fortune</a> they are &#8220;not aware of anything at this time.&#8221; 
Charlie Kirk of pro-Trump group Turning Point Action wrote earlier on X: &#8220;Turnout is mixed and not where we want it to be. We need more people to vote.&#8221;

Politico is <a href="https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/11/05/2024-elections-live-coverage-updates-analysis/turnout-high-in-georgia-00187458">reporting</a> that turnout in Georgia is on track to surpass 2020, and The Hill <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4973132-michigan-on-pace-to-break-voter-turnout-records-official-says/">says</a> that Michigan may break turnout records.
Why It Matters: High turnout in Philadelphia would be good news for Harris, but even a loss in Pennsylvania would not be fatal to Trump if he performs well in other swing states.
Georgia, Michigan and Pennsylvania were all key to Joe Biden&#8216;s victory in 2020.

High Turnout Reported In Key States, Trump Baselessly Alleges 'Massive CHEATING' In Philadelphia

A new study <a href="https://tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/21507740.2024.2303154">published</a> in AJOB Neuroscience reveals that most Americans are supportive of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/psilocybin">psilocybin</a> use, a psychedelic compound derived from "magic mushrooms," in supervised, licensed settings. As PsyPost <a href="https://www.psypost.org/majority-of-americans-support-supervised-use-of-psilocybin-for-mental-health-and-well-being/">reported</a>, this approval, spanning across political lines, underscores public openness to the controlled use of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/psychedelic-assisted-therapies">psilocybin for mental health treatment</a> and general well-being, despite remaining concerns for policy caution.
Psilocybin, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/federal-schedule-i">Schedule 1</a> drug in the U.S., has long been classified as having a high potential for abuse with no accepted medical use. However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/10/41216395/could-psilocybin-be-a-game-changer-for-millions-battling-depression-new-study-says-yes">recent clinical studies</a> suggest it may help alleviate symptoms of conditions such as treatment-resistant depression when administered under professional supervision. Unlike many medications, psilocybin is considered non-addictive, and studies have found it may also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/41004196/psilocybin-found-to-be-as-effective-as-lexapro-in-treating-depression-researchers-say">enhance overall well-being</a> in healthy individuals.
This research aimed to explore public perceptions of psilocybin amid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/08/40447902/psychedelics-and-mental-health-fda-stalls-but-states-forge-ahead">recent legislative progress</a>, such as Oregon&#8217;s law <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/20/11/18204455/oregon-becomes-first-us-state-to-decriminalize-drug-possession-begins-psilocybin-program">allowing its therapeutic use</a>. Researchers surveyed 805 Americans, aged 18 to 92, providing background on psilocybin's effects, origin and legal status before asking about support for nationwide legalization.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Mental Health Treatment Vs. Well-Being Enhancement</h3>
Participants were presented with two scenarios involving supervised psilocybin use: one for mental health treatment and the other for personal well-being. A strong 89% of participants supported psilocybin use for mental health treatment, while 85% approved its use for well-being enhancement. Though medical use garnered slightly more support, both scenarios saw broad endorsement.
The results show bipartisan support for supervised psychedelic therapy, with younger and more liberal adults showing stronger approval. Older adults and conservatives were more cautious, while those valuing empathy and care were more supportive of psilocybin use in therapy
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Navigating Caution Amid The Psychedelic Renaissance</h3>
The study also sheds light on the importance of tempering enthusiasm with scientific rigor. According to the researchers, the growing interest in psychedelics comes with the risk of overhyping benefits. Given the early stage of the field, both over- and understatements of trial results are not uncommon. As they noted, while psilocybin shows significant medical potential and a strong safety profile, current evidence doesn&#8217;t support rash conclusions beyond its use in the right context.
While the findings suggest broad public support for supervised psychedelic use, the study focused only on licensed environments, excluding unsupervised or recreational use. Future research could explore attitudes toward these higher-risk aspects.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Building Trust And Policy For The Future</h3>
The study authors stressed the need for trust-building and caution in shaping future policies. "If the field can overcome scientific inaccuracies, pursue rigorous research, and build trust—then psychedelics such as psilocybin may one day be seen as a mainstream means to treat mental illness and possibly also to promote overall well-being," they concluded.
With public support reaching bipartisan levels, the potential for psilocybin to become part of standard mental health care is closer to reality than ever, signaling a transformative shift in mental health treatment in the U.S.

The 2024 U.S. presidential election between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump remains one of the closest in history, raising concerns over whether the U.S. Supreme Court may play a decisive role in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">determining the outcome. </a>
As voters head to the polls, election-related legal battles already hint at the possibility of judicial involvement, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/05/us/politics/election-supreme-court.html">reports</a>.
What Happened: Several election cases have reached the Supreme Court in recent weeks, including a decision to allow Virginia's removal of over 1,600 voters from its rolls and rulings affecting candidates and voters in battleground states. 
The court decided against removing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from ballots in key states and authorized provisional ballots in Pennsylvania, after some mail-in ballots were deemed invalid. These cases showcase the judiciary's cautious approach to electoral involvement, although the court's conservative majority could still play a critical role if a close race sparks significant litigation, according to The New York Times.

The Supreme Court's involvement would hinge on an exceptionally narrow vote margin in a critical state, experts say. Prof. Richard Pildes of New York University told The New York Times that a paper-thin margin in a state like Pennsylvania, with its 19 electoral votes, could increase the likelihood of a court ruling influencing the presidential outcome.
Still, experts are cautious, noting that the Supreme Court generally aims to avoid direct involvement in elections.
Beyond the presidential race, the stakes extend to congressional control. Democrats seek to retain the Senate and flip the House, while Republicans push for gains in both chambers. The outcomes in Senate races, including those in Montana and Ohio, could shift control, particularly if Democratic seats in battleground states like Michigan and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/11/41725742/2024-election-stakes-potential-sweeps-split-outcomes-in-congressional-presidential-races">Pennsylvania face Republican challenges.</a> 
Why It Matters: A Supreme Court decision might not only impact the presidency but also influence control over Congress, setting a precedent for election litigation. In a scenario reminiscent of the Bush v. Gore case in 2000, if margins are close enough, legal challenges could escalate to the highest court. 
The potential for either party to control both chambers or split Congress suggests significant implications for the future of U.S. legislation and governance, The New York Times notes.

Trump Media &amp; Technology Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJT#NASDAQ">DJT</a>) reported third-quarter financial results after the market close Tuesday, the same day Donald Trump is facing off against Kamala Harris in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41758791/whats-going-on-with-trump-media-technology-group-stock-tuesday">2024 presidential election.</a>

The company reported a loss of 10 cents per share compared to a loss of 30 cents per share in last year's third quarter.
Trump Media &amp; Technology Group, which was co-founded by the former president, highlighted the importance of Trump for the company's success.
"TMTG's success depends in part on the popularity of our brand and the reputation and popularity of President Donald J. Trump. The value of TMTG's brand may diminish if the popularity of President Donald J. Trump were to suffer," the company said.
Trump is able to post politically related posts on any social media site at any time, including outside of Truth Social, the filing said. 
The filing lists a date of Feb. 2, 2025 for when Trump may "terminate the Exclusivity Obligation" with 30 days prior written notice for his non-political posts to appear first on Truth Social.
