Let's get a prediction thread going. Who do you think will win the farcicial Electionmania 2024?

I go with Harris.

I'm guessing Harris will win the popular vote, but trump takes the election by a fairly large margin.

It’s really hard to say. I could see the strategy of appealing to young men by telling them Trump and project 2025 are going to ban porn on top of the abortion issue pushing Kamala over the edge but right now I think Trump has an atomically small edge and seems ever so slightly more likely to win given how bad economic conditions are for working people and the tendency of Americans to change parties over things like that. Even if Trump loses if it’s close enough they can just pull a 2000 and steal it with lawyers and the Supreme Court so he has that going for him as well. Bourgeoisie in the tech sphere seem to be for Trump with Bezos and Musk seeming at least neutral or in Musk’s case all in.

Harris wins popular vote by smaller margin than JoBo did in 2020, but Trump wins the EC

I'm gonna say trump because why not

Biden Trump Harris In order of who was most likely to win, but it's a coin flip regardless

In the land of vibes, the one memed man is king.

Definitely think Trump will win. I hope it's Harris though. It will spell more chaos when the Magas do a "storm the Capitol" 2.0.

It's definitely a toss up and hard to tell which is funnier: Trump becoming the president even after libs' fifteen thousand or so indictments or Harris winning and mobilising the chud hordes.
