I hope for all your sakes you are right.

But already we are seeing claims that the election has been rigged by one side. And a few - I'll make an educated guess here and say its only a very small minority - screaming for retribution and even executions if they win.

I've tried my best to keep up to date with things the best I can from this side of the pond and its my firm belief that neither candidate is fit to hold such an esteemed and influential office. You guys deserve so much better. (I know that's just a personal opinion - and a pretty much irrelevant one - and that's not what this thread is about.)

the right person at the right time is where we are now. Trump isn't the best by a long shot, but he's the best choice for right now. We need to erase a large portion of clown world, and an abrasive, DGAF attitude is the key to making that happen. If this was Trump's first go at it, he'd be timid and worried about optics for his second term. That's not an issue at this point. And if he is able to wright the ship, then we can all enjoy some peace and prosperity for a little while. I'm tired of war, even if it's "over there". Too much death, and way too much stupid. YMMV

Trump is the best and only person for the job right now.

Trump 312 Electoral votes

Plus, Republicans maintain control of the House and are the Majority in the Senate.

We are seeing the shy voter syndrome again.

Trump supporters are called garbage, nazi's, deplorables, fascists, by the left.

So they don't express themselves to pollsters or the public out of fear of attack or reprisal.

God, I hope so. The left can't see it now, but eventually they will as some much needed normalcy starts to return. Kicking and screaming, we'll have to drag them with us as we level out the madness, but eventually the kicking will stop at least.

Harris.

She pulls a win in Wisconsin, Michigan, and squeaks by in Pennsylvania with the Latino vote pulling her ahead.

Harris also wins the popular vote by close to 10 million.

That would be a miracle comeback by a woman who has done NOTHING while in office, and received ZERO popular votes.

Presently, it's 287/251 Trump/Harris

On a level playing field, Trump wins. But we already know it’s not level , so… I’ll say prayers.

a reply to: UpIsNowDown2

So who do you think will win (not who do you want)

No... it isn't who I want, but...

Trump/Vance hit 270 before 11pm, no significant violence.

I'm obviously over the Pond and given Trumps announcement at one of his rally's today about imposing 25% tarrifs on Mexico on ALL goods imported into the States until they put their military on their side of the border..... then I hope he wins.
He's a deal maker and peace broker.
As to the effect on the UK as to who wins..... we need Trump in so he can pose some problems for our current shower of a Government, but our opposition ain't much better either!

Prediction: If we know the DECLARED WINNER before midnight Eastern Time tomorrow evening, there will be a smooth transition, free from significant violence.

Fingers Crossed 🤞🏽

If we know the winner in that time frame, it will be a fair election and America will win. If the votes aren't counted by then like last election, it will be Kama-Lie. I'm praying America wins this time.

How? He has only lost supports since the last election and he lost that one by 10mil votes... The math doesn't appear to be in his favor. If there are riots it'll be the the side that attempted to coup the US government. MAGA hates America and the Constitution, seeing as how they want to violate all of it...

Ooooh the irony 🙄

My prediction is that no matter who wins, the loser will cry bloody foul.

Both sides can’t comprehend why their candidates who aren’t liked outside their base could possibly lose.

I have no prediction. In fact, I would hesitate to voice a prediction out of the fear that I might somehow tweak the large "probability wave" that tends to form around events such as this.

So, essentially, I am posting here for the sole reason of being able to return to this thread, post-determination.

I think Trump will just about scrape it but it will be very close and take a few days/weeks to declare a winner. Hopefully both parties field better candidates next time.

Dang Sook.

Your prediction almost reads like you know Dems have it in the bag because they cheat so well.

I mean hell, Biden has even stated as such.

a reply to: Kaiju666

They tried to steal the 2016 election but underestimated the opposition. Hillary stayed drunk and in her basement most of the campaign thinking the fix was in. So did Joe Biden stay in his basement most of the campaign. When he did get out, he couldn't draw more than a few hundred supporters to his events. He openly admitted that they had the best apparatus to steal the election that money could buy and they did succeed in stealing the 2020 election that go-around.

Now comes Kamala. A democratic coup to force biden out and install their Manchurian Candidate in his place. Another candidate that can't draw a crowd or speak in public without reading everything she says from a teleprompter, over and over again. The same bs speech at every rally chucked full of nothing of substance. Just more of the same old hope and change rhetoric bs Obama spewed when he ran for office.

Are our elections free and fair at this point? Not a chance in Hell. Their efforts to steal are blatant and in our faces for the nation to see now. If the dems couldn't steal, they wouldn't win, and they know this. Evil bastards.

Trump will win this election because the democratic corruption has become far too extensive to ignore by the majority of the population and allow to continue. Somewhat like the 2016 election, rather than underestimating the opposition they perceived and failed to overcome, this time, the opposition will be too great for them to overcome without making their attempt clearly obvious to the entire nation. It already is for those with the open mindedness to accept what their eyes are seeing.

Jamie Raskin knows, or highly anticipates that Trump will win and is already preparing to use the 14th amendment come January 6th against Trump in an effort to declare Trump ineligible. He's a sleezy bastard. Just one of many in that corrupt town.

On and on discussion and debate here, for what? It's Easier to Fool People Than to Convince Them That They Have Been Fooled. There are none so blind as those that "will not" see.

I don't know who will win, but it sure as heck will not be the average, tax paying Yank.

I think Pennsylvania will be too close to call by 11 PM EST.

While 287 to 251 is healthy enough, it flips to 268 to 270 with PA alone. It might be like 2000, only Pennsylvania is the new Florida and it may go undecided holding the outcome in limbo. Maybe not months, but at least until after 2 AM again.



Trump won't need to accuse people of stealing it because it is destined to be an exhaustive count and recount under heavy bipartisan scrutiny anyway.

** On second thought, the position of respondents in this thread tells me Trump supporters are far less likely to participate in poll surveys, and be an unaccounted for part of the whole election predictive process.

Like in 2016, he told supporters polls were rigged, so less participated in polls, the polls favored Clinton, and then they all went out and voted.

If that history repeats this cycle, the polls are skewed again, and the results will exceed polls by 6 points across the swing states.

So maybe it will be called shortly after our polls close?

Trump will win in a landslide and will secure more popular votes than Harris.

He added almost 10 million from 2016 to 2020. You can easily see and read about all of those who are supporting him and have moved from the Democrats. He could break 90 million votes.

This not 2020. There is no COVID. There is no fear in the American people. There is anger at the last 4 years. This is not a vote about change or hope. It is about anger at policy not a person.

Sorry for those thinking different but this is going to be a Reagan type win. They cannot beat him here anymore.

11/26/2024 and 1/6/2025. Save the dates. They are not going to allow him in office.

Trump is winning 70/30 right now regardeless of what the polls say. Trump was winning 60/40 in 2020 regardless of what the polls said. He still lost that, and he will still lose this. There is NO WAY they are going to let him win. Unless....unless, they want him to win so that the country goes crazy, they can blame it all on MAGA, and come for every freedomn they can take from us. That is the only way he wins.

Just like 2020, the dems are doing (and saying) things that would have in the past, been political suicide, and they aren't worried about it all. Just like 2020, that should tell you all you need to know.
