Top Election Guru Releases BRUTAL Forecast For Kamala Harris' Campaign
Nate Silver, one of the most well-known Democratic-leaning pollsters, has released a brutal new forecast for Kamala Harris’ 2024 presidential campaign. According to Silver’s latest model, former President Donald Trump now holds a commanding lead, significantly outpacing the vice president in the race for the White House.
As of early September, Trump boasts a 60.1% chance of winning the Electoral College, a dramatic increase from just a few weeks prior. Back in late August, Silver’s model gave Harris a slight edge at 53.5%, while Trump trailed at 46.1%. However, recent polling has shifted dramatically, and Trump now holds a 61.5% chance of victory in Silver’s model, leaving Harris with only a 38.3% shot.

The forecast also highlighted Trump’s dominance in several key swing states that will likely determine the outcome of the election. According to Silver’s data, Trump has a significant advantage in states like Pennsylvania, where he leads Harris 62-38%, and Michigan and Wisconsin, both showing a 52-48% edge for Trump.
Even in recently Democratic-leaning areas such as Nevada and Arizona, Trump is leading by margins of 59-41% and 75-25%. The former president’s resurgence in swing states like Georgia (67-33%) and North Carolina (74-26%) further showed his growing momentum as Harris struggles to connect with voters.

Adding to Harris’ woes, betting markets like Polymarket show similar trends. On Polymarket, Trump’s odds of winning the presidency stand at 53%, while Harris trails at 45%. The data indicates that Trump’s resurgence is being felt not only in traditional polling but across predictive markets. The projections are a blow to the Harris campaign, which is already grappling with low favorability ratings and concerns over her ability to lead the Democrat Party following Joe Biden’s exit from the race. With swing states increasingly leaning toward Trump, Harris faces an uphill battle to shift the momentum in her favor.
With the first presidential debate scheduled in just four days in Philadelphia, both Trump and Harris are making strategic moves in key battleground states. On Friday, Trump is set to address the nation’s largest police union in North Carolina, showcasing his commitment to law enforcement as a cornerstone of his campaign. Meanwhile, Harris is in Pittsburgh, fine-tuning her strategy and preparations for the upcoming debate.
Earlier this week, both candidates presented their economic plans, aiming to sway voters with their visions for America’s financial future. Trump’s speech today is expected to further elaborate on his economic policies, especially in relation to law enforcement and national security.
Adding to the intensity of the race, Harris’ campaign reported a record-breaking fundraising achievement, amassing $361 million in August alone according to CNN. However, as things stand, it appears that Trump is once again on track to reclaim the presidency in 2024.
