The final national polls from most of the big pollsters seem to be in agreement that it is basically even on popular vote. All along I have said that Harris really needs to have roughly a 3 point advantage nationally to win, and I still find that to be true.
Here are my final predictions.
I believe the rust belt is closer than I thought it would be a couple months ago. But still, I think, at the very least, Wisconsin is going to flip red by about 30-40k votes. I also give Trump the slightest edge in PA, as I continue to believe that the Jewish population is going to reject the Dems pretty hard this election cycle. I have MI staying blue by the tightest of margins. But I believe NH is sneakily in play too for Trump and will again be decided by less than 1%. I also think Harris/Walz are going to underperform in MN. They still win, but by less than 5%.
Along the sun belt, I think AZ, GA, and NC will be solidly red this time. I think Trump wins AZ by 3.5 points or better. I think GA goes Trump by 2.5 points and a similar margin for NC, which I thought was in danger a couple weeks ago. NV will be closer and I have Trump winning by a margin of 1% or less, but it could easily be Kamala winning NV. However, as I have said, it is unlikely NV factors into this race regardless who wins it.
And while VA will end up blue, it will be by less than 5%.
Iowa will go Trump by 8 points or better.
Harris wins the popular vote, but by less than 1%. Dems again are triggered by the electoral college. And post incessantly about how the electoral college is outdated and claim that Harris shouldn't certify the election.
Trump 297 - Harris 241 in race that won't be the blowout thethe predicted but also not quite as close as others have stated. And a race that several other (R) nominees likely would have had commanding national lead.
