Had to make a new one because the original one I made last year unfortunately features Biden vs. Trump, "The Rematch".

SENATE PREDICTION
(Some of these results may buck the polls and come as a bit of a surprise, but they keep in-line with historical trends of GOP candidates in certain states overperforming Trump and/or the top of the presidential ticket, while in states like Arizona, and, to an extent, Montana, underperform, but not by as much as you might think or the polls might tell you.)

HOUSE PREDICTION
I don't know why this would be an unreasonable prediction. I don't buy the "NY is going to decide the House" narrative. There's room for both sides to grow and lose, but certain incumbents are positioned well, and the presidential ticket should carry the direction of the open seats that don't have an incumbent.

I have no idea what to make of the presidential race. Not gonna try to guess and even if it’s wrong I think your prediction is reasonable so not gonna make fun of it after the fact. I think it’s about as much of a coin flip as a race can get. Gun to my head Id have said Trump before the debate but Harris seems to have momentum now.
As far as senate I’m fairly confident then Dems end up with 49 seats. A poll of MT’s first district came out today that was horrible for Tester but Sherrod Brown is polling well and I have it on decent authority that he’s got a lot of oppo research on Moreno that should be dropping soon. Gallego would probably be the underdog if he was against a conventional tax cuts Republican but he’s up against radical lesbian Kari Lake. Then there’s Nevada where Jackie Rosen isn’t losing to Freddie Kruger. I think the Michigan race was very winnable for Rs but they’re not sinking any money into it or taking it seriously. Casey and Baldwin I also think are just too strong as incumbents to lose even though McCormick and Hovde aren’t bad candidates.

OK your presidential map is fine but this is I think a ridiculous prediction. The party that just had a midterm turnout advantage rarely gains more seats 2 years later (the last time it happened was 2008 which was obviously a unique circumstance). Every other presidential election recently has had the party that just made midterm gains losing seats (2012 Rs lost seats, 2016 Rs lost seats, 2020 Ds lost seats).
-The MD-06 prediction makes no sense. It's a seat Biden won by double digits and it has too many blue Montgomery County suburbs to flip red.
-I'm not sure why Rs refuse to give up hope on NM-02 but if they couldn't hold it as the incumbent in 2022 they're not flipping it this year.
-It's hard to see the map so I can't tell if this is what you have but I don't see any reason that the Akron seat flips either.
-This very well could happen but Kildee's, Slotkin's, Wild's and Carwright's seat all flipping red would require a bad rustbelt environment for Dems that the polls don't indicate.
-Perfectly fair to predict WA-03 and ME-02 flip but I don't see it. Both seats have great incumbents, and Golden's opponent is the worst one he's ever faced.
-Arizona I'm fairly pessimistic and don't think the Dems flip either close district but having the Tucson district flipping is fair, my pessimism is more re: Schweikert's seat
-Predicting Rs hold every red seat in CA isn't unreasonable but it just indicates an environment more red than what polls show.
Long story short a lot of very close house races that are gonna be decided by the environment, which is why my thinking is that whatever party takes the White House is probably taking the house too, but I don't see any scenario where either party has less than 210 house seats. No matter which side wins the house it's gonna be a slim majority.

No matter which side wins the house it's gonna be a slim majority.
Perfectly reasonable analysis, but my justification is:
-The MD-06 prediction makes no sense. It's a seat Biden won by double digits and it has too many blue Montgomery County suburbs to flip red.
Perfectly fair to make this point, but it's also an open seat where I do expect Hogan to lose by less than 15% and have some down-ballot coattails (not up-ballot; Trump will get killed there). Aside from Andy Harris's seat, this is by far the reddest seat in MD, with the western panhandle being WV-level dark-red, albeit less populated.
-I'm not sure why Rs refuse to give up hope on NM-02 but if they couldn't hold it as the incumbent in 2022 they're not flipping it this year.
I don't agree with this, personally. I believe this is the cycle NM turns a proverbial corner to the right on the presidential level, and down-ballot Domenici surprises by losing statewide by only a lean margin; energy is a major issue in this district and with the Latino-American male population heavily trending Trump/GOP, and Harrell being the ex-incumbent, I do see this region flipping back red. The state will still be on the blue side especially areas north of ABQ.
-It's hard to see the map so I can't tell if this is what you have but I don't see any reason that the Akron seat flips either.
It could go either way, but you have a weak, young, vulnerable first-term incumbent who won rather narrowly against a Boebert-esque GOP candidate in an open 2022 election there, and that part of Ohio is zooming red. On the flipside, I could definitely see the Cincinnati seat zoom blue, though, especially since the Dems now have the incumbency and knocked off a very difficult GOP incumbent in 2022.
-This very well could happen but Kildee's, Slotkin's, Wild's and Carwright's seat all flipping red would require a bad rustbelt environment for Dems that the polls don't indicate.
It's very possible the Dems hold 1 or more of these on a good night (Harris victory night, likely), but this is a product and function of the national environment. Both MI seats are open, while both PA seats are held by vulnerable incumbents in red-trending areas that won last time out largely on the backs of the up-ballot candidates (Fetterman, and, to a lesser extent, Shapiro). It's in-line with my Trump "tilt R" PA prediction and my McCormick (very low, I think around 1.7-1.9%) "lean R" prediction. I do have DeLuzio holding the Beaver County west of Pittsburgh seat, to be fair, even though that might be one of the two or so places McCormick outperforms Trump IMO. As for the Michigan seats, the margin by which the GOP lost them in 2022 to incumbents was much less than the top of the ticket (I agree governor isn't the best indicator, but that's all we have for Michigan in 2022) and now both seats are completely open. Kildee in particular was a major performer, but the Dems would have to win Michigan by a lot up and down the ballot to hold that seat, for instance. And keep in mind the rust belt polls underestimated Trump and the Senate candidates bad in 2016 and 2020, and the Senate candidates in the rust belt for the GOP not only way overperformed polling but also slightly overperformed Trump, which is also why I have Moreno winning Ohio by a lean margin even if he's a below-average candidate.
-Perfectly fair to predict WA-03 and ME-02 flip but I don't see it. Both seats have great incumbents, and Golden's opponent is the worst one he's ever faced.
WA-03 is a red district at the federal level, and Trump on the ballot carries Joe Kent to victory here. There was a lot of infighting on the GOP side in 2022, and you've got a one-term vulnerable incumbent again here. To be fair, I also have OR-05 flipping from red to blue for VERY similar reasons, to balance this out. As far as ME-02 if Golden wins it's only because of ranked-choice voting, and he could absolutely hold on narrowly, but his gun comments last year are anathema to that part of Maine which will go to Trump by quite a comfortable margin. Also, I vehemently disagree on Theriault being worse than Poliquin; Bruce Poliquin is the one who was objectively the worst candidate for that district, being a non-populist, tax-cuts, old "Arizona GOP" McCain-esque type that is a horrible fit for that district (but maybe a better fit for New Hampshire). Theriault may be the inexperienced young NASCAR guy but he's baggage-free unlike someone like a Madison G Gilbert of 2022. I expect it to go down to the wire. If Trump has a good enough night he's carrying ME-02 by 10%+ which gives Theriault the upper hand even accounting for ranked-choice voting. To be fair, I have NE-02 flipping blue to essentially balance this out, and a lot of Dems are pessimistic about taking out Don Bacon but once again I think top-of-ticket is too much for Bacon this time. If not, he loses in 2026.
-Arizona I'm fairly pessimistic and don't think the Dems flip either close district but having the Tucson district flipping is fair, my pessimism is more re: Schweikert's seat
Yeah, I don't expect Schweikert to lose this time around, but watch for a potential flip there in 2026. He's a tough incumbent like a Steve Chabot type and very vocal in the House himself but even that wasn't enough to save Chabot from urban sprawl in Cincinnati in a relative regional blue-wave midterm, so we'll see. The east Tucson district could go either way, I just see a vulnerable one-term incumbent in a state that I have Kamala and Gallego both winning so it makes sense for me to put this as as a blue flip. If I had Trump winning, the GOP incumbent probably narrowly holds, IMO, and may lose in 2026.
-Predicting Rs hold every red seat in CA isn't unreasonable but it just indicates an environment more red than what polls show.
Polls consistently underestimate the GOP down-ballot in California, especially recently, look at 2022. I don't think many people had Duarte winning in the first place on their bingo card, but now he's a fairly rock-solid, moderate Reagan-style CA-GOP Latino perfectly tailored to that region similar to Valadao. To be fair, I have the Dems holding Katie Porter's vulnerable open seat, which is a toss up and it seems like moderate Orange County has turned a bit of a corner back towards the GOP over Newsom's and local far-left policy. I could see the GOP picking up this seat, as incumbent Porter only won this by 3.1% in 2022 and now there's no incumbent, but I have the other LA metro GOP incumbents holding so I picked the Dems for CA-47 to be fair. These are all definitely fairly heavy split-ticket districts, in favor of both the Democrat presidential candidate and the down-ballot Republican, so keep that in mind.

As far as senate I’m fairly confident then Dems end up with 49 seats. A poll of MT’s first district came out today that was horrible for Tester but Sherrod Brown is polling well and I have it on decent authority that he’s got a lot of oppo research on Moreno that should be dropping soon. Gallego would probably be the underdog if he was against a conventional tax cuts Republican but he’s up against radical lesbian Kari Lake. Then there’s Nevada where Jackie Rosen isn’t losing to Freddie Kruger. I think the Michigan race was very winnable for Rs but they’re not sinking any money into it or taking it seriously. Casey and Baldwin I also think are just too strong as incumbents to lose even though McCormick and Hovde aren’t bad candidates.
-I don't see Tester doing much better than Steve Bullock did. Pre-polarization, he'd stand a chance, but expecting a massive federal to federal split ticketing even in a state that's historically known for it 2012 and before in this era is too folly. The key to remember is that Tester won re-election in a low turnout midterm in 2018 by 3.6% where the voter turnout pool was Trump + 3.0%. That would, in theory, signal a 6.6% split-ticket factor, very much exactly in-line with Trump's performance over Biden (Trump + 16%), versus Daines' performance over Bullock (Daines + 10%), netting a larger sample size of an almost exactly like result there, in the polarized era where up-ballot partisan lean on a presidential ballot means far more than something like incumbency. You give Tester a point or two for being a three-term incumbent but subtract them when you realize that his last victory was against a scandal-plagued Rosendale. I'd expect Tester to overperform Harris by 6-8% and lose by high single digits to Sheehy.
-I don't look too deeply into the polls favoring Brown in Ohio at the moment. He's a three-term incumbent, sure, and he's politically and optically very similar to Tim Ryan, who performed well in 2022. However, the sink-shipper for Brown is that he's on a presidential ballot in a state that zoomed red off a cliff in 2016 and has since had trends in both directions in opposite parts of the state, and to boot Moreno, even though I think he's a Blake Masters-tier candidate (certainly not Oz or Walker tier), has already proven to be an overperformer in the primary against Dolan et al., performing very well in Youngstown and surrounding regions that are must-win if Brown wants any semblance of a chance to win a fourth term in a state Kamala will likely lose by near or low double digits. And then you add in Springfield which is sure to move the state even further to the right, as if East Palestine isn't enough. The state GOP is pissed with DeWine and are trying to gather votes to impeach/recall him in 2025, but acknowledge they have an election to win first. I do think Brown will outperform Harris, not due to his incumbency but due to Moreno being a little too polarizing and Vance-esque, by around 4-5%, but it won't be enough. Polls will be polls, but any opposition research on Moreno won't be enough to produce a massive enough federal-vis-a-vis-federal ticket-split in a state where historically Trump actually underperforms the down-ballot federal. Either way, GOP flip, and also justifying my OH-13 flip prediction. (I wanted to flip OH-09 bad but even on a presidential level and not facing Majewski, it's just too much to predict 20-term incumbent Kaptur to lose at this time.)
-Pennsylvania is the one Senate seat I see coming up aces perhaps a little out of the blue for McCormick, a seat that was an afterthought for a long time because Casey has always been seen until recently as this juggernaut incumbent. But, if my Trump+1(ish) prediction in PA holds true, McCormick IMO wins by an even slightly higher margin. Recall that the last time Trump ran with a PA Senate race on the ballot, Pat Toomey overperformed Trump by 0.8%. Sure, incumbent and all. But the polls have actually been somewhat worrisome for Casey even compared to other purple-state senate races, and let's not underestimate the shy McCormick voter again after the near-miracle he pulled off in the primary on May 17th, 2022, even in the face of Trump, McConnell, and other big names stupidly endorsing Dr. Oz. McCormick is an overperformer. He will do very well and likely overperform Trump in exurban and suburban Pittsburgh, as well as the Philadelphia collar suburbs. I can see Casey slightly overperforming Harris in the Scranton area, but that may not be enough to negate that. The way that PA is set up, I don't expect much Trump/Casey ticket-splitting in the dark-red areas of the state. They turned out for McCormick in droves in 2022, and didn't turn out for Oz in the general. Those voters still exist. Some are more MAGA and some are less, but McCormick has a unique coalition and Lean R (maybe McCormick +1.7% is my call for now), but don't be shocked if mighty Casey strikes out this time. Heck, it's very likely that Fetterman is already the stronger of the two PA incumbent senators, due to his recent improvements as senator. Fetterman comes off as candid, like a more progressive Trump, and the average PA brute responds well to that. Casey comes off as an oligarch and elite. Outside of the high-education collar burbs, PA doesn't like that.
-As someone who actively works for this state party I actually have firsthand evidence to the contrary that the national and MI GOP are absolutely taking the Mike Rogers race seriously. I do think this state is the narrowest at the federal level and right now I have Kamala by about 0.2%. That said, Rogers is a quality candidate, very well qualified and polished overall, not a culture war hawk and doesn't reek of the Tudor Dixon/James Craig era nor the Rick Snyder era. He bridges the gap beautifully and even though Slotkin's team will inevitably outspend him, it won't be by as much as polls think and duly recall that John James slightly outperformed Trump in 2020, so that just might be enough to put Rogers just narrowly over the hump if Trump narrowly wins or narrowly loses by under a percentage point. Other than that, it's a pure toss up. Close to a coin flip. Could just as easily see Slotkin winning, especially if Kamala wins MI by over 1%.
-Eric Hovde is also a solid candidate and not a culture war hawk. I don't agree with either you or Bill O'Reilly that Baldwin is the strongest incumbent especially compared to someone like Klobuchar. You brought up lesbians? Kari Lake being a lesbian is at best funny with respect to her hairstyle and at worst outright fake news, but Baldwin is both a lesbian and a very far-left progressive with similar optics, tendencies, policies and voting habits as Elizabeth Warren. Of Massachusetts. She's a poor fit for the state as a whole. Better than Mandela Barnes? Yeah, but not a very high bar to clear. The issue for Republicans is that, well, Baldwin is a perfect fit for Madison, which has had massive increases in turnout, recently. WOW has overall shifted a bit left away from Trump to some extent and while I do think Hovde will overperform Trump by a point or so, bucking the polls very similarly to Ron Johnson vs. Russ Feingold in 2016, in this scenario I have Trump losing Wisconsin by about 2% due to the combination of juiced Madison turnout and WOW regression, so Hovde loses by around 1% in this scenario. Out of PA/MI/WI, Wisconsin is easily the least politically charged state of the three (outside of the lefties in Madison), which helps Democrats, but this won't be the ultra low propensity elections of 2022 and 2023. Still, I have Dems slightly favored in both races, as Madison has grown drastically in recent years.
-I agree with you on Lake in the sense that Gallego would be an underdog against a Ducey type, paired with Trump not being on the ballot. A Trump/Lake up-and-down ballot is simply too much cancer for moderate, Reaganite/McCain Republicans and right-leaning independents in Arizona to stomach. I think they hurt each other, in fact. Yes, Martha McSally was a poor candidate and 0-2 despite being a twice-appointed incumbent, but at least she's not a conspiracy theorist extremist extreme election denier like Kari "Loser". I also think Gallego is a poor candidate on the Dems' part and too fiscally and culturally progressive for the average AZ voter to stomach..... if he wasn't up against Lake (and Trump, to some extent). Dems got lucky there, because otherwise you're probably best off sticking with Sinema or nominating a relative moderate like Greg Stanton.
-I don't think Rosen is a good candidate at all for Nevada (oligarch elitist non-practicing jew, carpetbagger from Chicago). However, Sam Brown is a less than stellar candidate. The physical optics are a problem but far from his worst problem. He just doesn't have a personality. He's not an extremist or a perv or anything, he's just..... bland. Boring... mundane, rudimentary. Personality of a brick. Adam Laxalt didn't run but I'd have him the favorite if he did, even factoring in the 2022 loss (he conceded, fwiw). Just a missed opportunity on the part of the GOP. I think that this seat runs relatively even with the top of the ticket, and in this scenario I have Harris narrowly carrying the state, so I have Rosen carrying it by a roughly equal margin. I don't think either candidate wins or loses by more than 2%, fwiw.

Bad news for Jared Golden. Theriault is ahead in ME-02 polling which massively underestimated Trump in 2016 and 2020:
https://www.wmtw.com/article/theriault-leads-golden-cd2-2024-recent-polling/62287240
Golden is trying to win the old vote on the same ballot is Trump by playing to Theriault's young age and inexperience, which is laughable because the median old person up there is a hardcore Trumper with 21 guns and 87 fishing rods.
If the polling miss translates well vis-a-vis the House and POTUS federal levels, it could be enough to carry Theriault even taking ranked choice voting into account. Not sure if this poll factored that in, but the only third candidate in the running seems to be Diana Merenda running a write-in campaign, which is almost certainly excellent for Theriault and horrible for Golden.
As for Peltola's seat I've gotten a lot of pushback from my friends on the right for calling it likely to safe D but the issue is she got 50.9%, an outright majority, in the open primary without ranked-choice voting, and even though the other (R) besides Begich dropped out this time unlike Palin being an idiot in 2022, now Peltola is an incumbent with strange unique moderate appeal and you've got to believe that she's getting all the second-place votes from voters voting for the other (D) in the race in 2024, unlike with Palin and Begich in 2022. I don't see how Peltola loses, she might end up with 54-56% or more honestly after RCV is factored in.
The party that just had a midterm turnout advantage rarely gains more seats 2 years later (the last time it happened was 2008 which was obviously a unique circumstance)
I also don't agree with this. Obama being a "generational candidate" at the start of a financial recession largely blamed on Bush is a unique circumstance, but the screwy-louie shenanigans pulled by the Dems in 2024 with an un-democratically nominated candidate replacing the incumbent president that vowed to stay on the ballot all the way until just before the convention, paired with two assassination attempts of the former President running for President again, all of this coming off a once in a century pandemic which messed up the 8-year-cyclical continuum in 2020, with record inflation and illegal immigration on top of that isn't a unique circumstance? The GOP underperformed in 2022. If they had performed to expectations in 2022 and won their 230-245 seats they were supposed to back then in a red wave then I say they for sure lose seats in 2024 but they didn't. They went up bit by bit and redistricting has gone both ways but overall has slightly favored the GOP, any way you slice it. You have a decent amount of legacy Dems in red or purple trending red districts which is a problem for the Democrats. You have popular well-funded GOP moderate incumbents in light blue districts which is also a problem for the Dems. For every Marcy Kaptur there's three Brian Fitzpatrick's. Yes it is theoretically possible the Dems could win back the House but it'd take a pretty sizeable Kamala win and unexpectedly good night for the Dems, it's not wishcasting to say the House starts off as "Lean R".

Sorry, but as things stand, Trump isn't winning PA, IMVHO, that's pure wishcasting. He won in '16 when he was a complete unknown, but 2020 is a far better indicator. I actually suspect he'll lose by a wider margin this time around.
And without Pennsylvania, his avenues to a win get much dimmer. He would need to win both AZ and GA, which is not impossible, but unlikely.

He's winning Georgia. PA is a pure toss up. Arizona I have going narrowly blue but it could go either way, but it's not a state Trump should comfortably rely on for sure. But the thing is PA is the tipping state because if Harris wins PA then Trump can win GA and AZ and NV (and NC, FL, TX etc) and still lose 270-268 assuming Harris wins NE-02 which she should because it's an urban district.
PA is as it stands now is the reddest of the three upper rustbelt states... it's a most win for both sides honestly, because I don't see Trump losing PA but turning around and winning MI and WI both (assuming he also flips back GA). At that point AZ/NV which won't be called on election night because of retarded counting wouldn't matter, but, it's too wishful thinking.
If one side or the other wins both GA and PA there's a 99.9% chance that side wins the election, and those two are most likely to be called reasonably early on election night considering they're in all eastern time and their counting procedures have drastically improved since 2020. AZ/NV will be counting until Thanksgiving. But if Trump has won PA and GA that means he's also won NC and he doesn't need either of AZ or NV, nor MI nor WI, to get to 270.

Long conversations with Germans lately, intrigued bout the USA election process. I respond neutrally.
In comparison to other people I've chatted with, over the years. Germans it takes a long time to finally get them to state their option/bias. They legit are great listeners and respect the response. Refreshing people to chat with.

I give Dennison a 3% chance of winning PA. NV is not in play either, IMHO. He's just a bad candidate. He will win NC comfortably, and AZ, GA are the true tossups.

And Kacklemala the San Francisco democrat is? That's the issue for Dems. If Shapiro were the alpha nominee, I'd agree about PA. Well, maybe not 97%, but maybe closer to 75-80%. Even Biden post-debate was a much better candidate for PA.
But you've got even objective Dems saying it's a coin flip in this thread, you're the one with the hopium.
NV is in play but it hasn't flipped since 2004 so I've always been hesitant unlike most people in just putting it in Trump's column. Also the polls historically tend to skew R there unlike most the other states. What's your take on MI/WI if you think Trump has a 3% chance to win PA and zero percent in NV? Because he literally can't win the election with just AZ and GA + his 2020 holds. That takes him only up to 262 electoral votes. He'd still need to win one of WI/MI/PA or pull an upset in a state like VA.

Who's the one "voting Trump again and again"? Surely not me. Didn't you read my post? I haven't voted since 2012. I agree with what Aaron Rodgers said about voting on Joe Rogan's podcast in 2021. That part of the reason why partisan polarization is such a divisive problem in today's American society, breaking up friendships and relationships etc now more than ever is because of social media and the big orgs, big companies, big donors, big media etc shoving the "vote! vote! vote!!!1! vote or DI3!!!one!!" narrative in-your-face these days more than ever, especially in 2020, it was crazy, it was all over NFL stadiums in specific swing states even if there weren't any fans at the games. It was every other TV ad in 2020. It was every other social media post, brought up in places where it never had been before, heck even pervasive and metastatic on online dating sites and apps. It's become toxic and it's massively carcinogenic and has massively contributed to societal decay. Heck, you went from being proud to have "never voted for a (D) or an (R)" in 2016 -- your own words in 2016 -- to becoming one of the most partisan leftists on this site who isn't a bot or a troll, under eight years later. I respect your opinions, but, seriously.
Sure, the right to vote (for citizens and citizens only) and preserve the democracy is fine and all, but as Rodgers stated, the right to not vote is also equally important, and being pushy about it is not just unconstitutional and wrong, but it's conscriptionist.
Lol "was"
Well, I'm 30 1/2 years old this Saturday, so definitely not 18 anymore. The rest of the sentence still applies to a certain degree, but I'm also not stupid and not going to cut off my nose to spite my face these days. I do believe that biologically, it is primal nature for men to do the leading in the vast majority of cases, and that neo-feminism is largely poisonous counterculture. This is an atheist's perspective, one who believes in science, and not a "muh jeezus" bible thumper's.

Yeah if the Dems want any shot at the House I think it will come down to much more the popular vote than the electoral college vote. Because CA/NY has many districts that the Dems won in 2020 and 2016 but have GOP incumbents. The Dems will need to flip probably 75% of those seats combined to win the House, plus winning the two vulnerable open seats in MI and the vulnerable seats with mid incumbents in PA, to win the House. I wouldn't favor the Dems to win the House. If Trump wins, I see the Dems flipping the House in 2026 largely by knocking off the Schweikert types off the board as well as a lot of those CA/NY seats.
there seems to be an established pattern of Dems ratfucking Dems in NY state.
There's infighting for sure. Cuomo might not have been perfect but he was relatively stable and universally approved of. Ever since he was coup'd in favor of Hochul, that was the starting point for the bleeding of the NY Dems statewide, which really reared its ugly head in the 2022 midterms, not just with redistricting.

I don't get why the TDS Extremism and what makes him worse than Bush? If anything he appealed to former Dems in Michigan by pretty blatantly Bush-bashing yesterday in both rallies in both sides of the state by saying that the wars were horrible. He is the candidate of world peace. A vote against Trump is a vote against world peace.
As far as who I'd vote for if I did end up deciding to vote from where I'm at currently, it'd be Trump for POTUS, Cruz for Senate, and Santos Limon (DEMOCRAT!!!!!) for House. Why? Because I despise Gonzales and strongly supported his populist primary challenger who lost the primary runoff by less than 2% and would have outright won if not for some dirty, sleazy cheating ads and outspending on dirty money. There needs to be a law that, in all races including primaries, runoffs, and generals that it is illegal for one candidate's side to out-spend the other in any given location by more than 10%.

Anecdotes are not facts.
Zuromin, a town of about 9,000 people two hours north of Warsaw, has been named the region's unofficial fentanyl capital.
For some, it is reminiscent of small towns in the United States which were the first to fall victim to the country's opioid epidemic.
In June, local police seized a total of 300 patches of the drug, capable of intoxicating 4,800 people, and arrested four people suspected of involvement in the illegal fentanyl trade.

Extremely worse than Bush. Bush was horrendous, but truly believed what he stood for and once his time was up, he picked up his bags and left.
This guy was always a conman, he believes in nothing but holding on and harnessing power. He ran as basically Bernie Sanders in 2016, governed like Bush, and then we almost have to send the troops to evict his ass from the White House.
There's just no red line he's unwilling to cross for himself. I grew up in a military dictatorship, until I was 9, and I know the difference between democracy and authoritarianism. I know the type as well.
If there's one reason I'd like to have the ability to vote here in the US is to deny the WH to people like him. You can call it TDS or whatever. I would do the same if a lefty started talking about "third term", etc.

Why the GOP candidates are currently being drastically underpolled nationwide (particularly in the Rust Belt) in the Senate:
-Russ Feingold in this point in 2016 early October was leading by 9-11%. WOW! Polling aggregate would narrow to Feingold + 2.7% by Election Day, while the actual result was Ron Johnson + 3.4%. A polling miss of R+ 6.1%! https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/senate/general/2016/wisconsin/johnson-vs-feingold Massive polling miss here. I think in 2024 we have a similar situation where Eric Hovde is the type who will overperform Trump in the WOW counties similar to Johnson and then run roughly in-line with Trump in the rest of the state, shocking a lot of people. Currently, Tammy Baldwin is ahead of Hovde by +3.5% at the same time Feingold was ahead by +9.7%, which is BAD news for Tammy Baldwin, especially if anywhere near the R + 6.1% polling miss validates in 2024 (maybe give her a point or so for incumbency, but even then, it's a presidential election post-polarization): https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/senate/general/2024/wisconsin/hovde-vs-baldwin
-Can't really compare the Sherrod Brown/Bernie Moreno race to 2016 because Rob Portman was a Mike DeWine-style compromise moderate senator who won by relative dictator margins, but let's not forget that Moreno was ahead in the primary polling by a paltry 2.0% and ended up winning the state by 17.6% in the primary this year. He's an overperformer. https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/senate/republican-primary/2024/ohio Also, if Trump wins by his 2016/2020 margin or higher, I don't foresee an 8% or larger ticket split in favor of Brown, especially since Moreno is popular in the must-win counties for Brown, in the northeast part of the state near Youngstown. While Moreno very well may underperform Trump, he should win by roughly a similar margin as Vance in 2022 against a very similar candidate. Remember, post-polarization, top of the ticket beats incumbency in presidential election years as opposed to midterms.
-Gary Peters in this point in 2020 early October was leading by 5.4%, which carried steady through Election Day. The actual result was Peters + 1.7%, overperforming Trump by almost one percentage point. This indicates that, especially factoring in an open-seat situation, it is actually highly likely that in 2024 Mike Rogers will overperform Trump down ballot, especially in the Grand Rapids metro area in West Michigan and also Oakland County, where Trump is less popular than the average Republican. It is also a polling miss of R + 3.7%, which factored into today's current Elissa Slotkin lead of +3.0% (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/senate/general/2024/michigan/rogers-vs-slotkin), would net Mike Rogers a 0.7% actual victory in 2024, and would likely mean that Trump very narrowly loses Michigan by the smallest of tilt margins, which are both in line with my prediction on the first page of this thread.
-Katie McGinty in this point in 2016 early October was leading by 1.8%, which actually improved to McGinty + 2.0% on Election Day. (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/senate/general/2016/pennsylvania/toomey-vs-mcginty) The actual result was Toomey + 1.6%, again outperforming Trump (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2016/pennsylvania/trump-vs-clinton) by a margin of 0.9%, similar to my 0.7% prediction for Senate GOP-friendly ticket splitting in PA in 2024. Currently, incumbent Bob Casey Jr. leads the polling by 4.0%, but that's with two high outliers factored in, throw those out and you've got a myriad of Casey + 1, Casey +2, Casey + 1, and even a couple of tied polls. McCormick has been drastically improving throughout. Meanwhile, Trump and Harris are currently mathematically tied in Pennsylvania (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2024/pennsylvania/trump-vs-harris), which is an obvious drop off for the Democrats from the polling of 2016 and 2020. If the Presidential/Senate split, which should be marginal in either direction anyway, holds from 2016, then David McCormick should in theory be winning by a tilt margin at this point, or greater if polls are once again underestimating Trump (though the difference in polling miss in PA is admittedly less than WI and MI, in 2020 the polling aggregate was spot-on in PA, while in 2016 the polling miss was only Trump + 2.6%. (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2016/pennsylvania/trump-vs-clinton-vs-johnson-vs-stein). Admittedly, this one appears to be lower confidence than the MI, OH, and even WI senate races, but McCormick has also been an unlikely overperformer in the past: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2022/senate/Pennsylvania.html here McCormick out-performed expectations by roughly 12% in the May 17, 2022 primary, even in the face of all the big-name GOP endorsements going against him.
-Jon Tester is all but cooked. (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/senate/general/2024/montana/sheehy-vs-tester) Let this be a lesson from 2022, 2012, and other years for the GOP that candidate quality indeed matters! The Democrats are currently spending much more money trying (unsuccessfully) to flip Texas's senate seat than saving Tester's big bottom, seeing the writing on the wall here in a state that typically ticket splits for President and Senate in the Trump polarization era by D + 6.4%. (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/senate/general/2020/montana/daines-vs-bullock) vs (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2020/montana/trump-vs-biden). Actually, polling looked much better for incumbent governor Steve Bullock for this Senate seat in 2020 than it does for three-term incumbent Tester in 2024. Tester is done.
-In Arizona I expect the Democrat to win but the ticket split is surprisingly small: (https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2020/senate/az/arizona_senate_mcsally_vs_kelly-6801-map-widget.html). Not only did Mark Kelly underperform polling in a similar open seat election to 2024 in 2020 by 3.3%, but he also only overperformed Biden by 2.3%. If you factor in a similar Democrat Senator-friendly ticket split in 2024, Ruben Gallego (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2024/arizona/trump-vs-harris) only defeats Kari Lake by +0.8%, which is actually a Tilt D margin and to the right of my Lean D prediction for AZ's Senate race. (Then again, I am less bullish than polls for Trump in Arizona.)
-In Nevada in 2016 you had the Senate election perform exactly in-line with the Presidential election, which is what I expect to happen again in 2024, hence my consistent "Tilt D" evaluation for the state at both levels as the state has been very slowly crawling red in the past decade. (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/senate/general/2016/nevada/cortezmasto-vs-heck) vs (https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2016/nevada/trump-vs-clinton) Both Hillary Clinton and Catherine Cortez-Masto won by exactly 2.4%. Trump would need to carry the state to carry Sam Brown across the finish line, and I'm not particularly bullish on Nevada for Trump.

:lol delusional to think that a short carpetbagger with a weird voice is going to beat Casey. He’s going to underperform Trump by at least several points.
He was born and raised in PA and lived there most of his life unlike Dr. Oz. Senator Casey relying on "muh Connecticut" as a crutch (13 times) in the debate more so than policy just makes him look weak in light of that. With Fetterman, the argument that "Dr. Oz didn't move here until last year and he's born in Ohio and has mansions in NJ and spent a lot of his life in Turkey" pulled a lot stronger weight with the voters... especially the Turkey part. McCormick did over-rely on the phrase "[Casey] is a career politician" but PA does like to vote for relative political outsiders lately, like Trump and Fetterman, so that argument isn't horrible.
I actually think McCormick out-runs Trump by about 0.7%. Will that be enough to win for either, who knows, but any ticket split in the rust belt with Trump on the ballot is historically in favor of the Senate candidate, not Trump.
Josh Stein is the real carpetbagger. Didn't live in NC until well into adulthood after being an Ivy League lawyer elitist oligarch. And Hillary in 2000 wasn't the biggest carpetbagger in Senate history? :lmao

So you're saying he was born in the state that he's running it, moved to Connecticut, then moved back to run for statewide office, and voters are going to like that? Great point, it's not like Tim Michels followed that exact same arc and did embarrassingly bad against Evers.

That's a dumb comparison because the ticket splitting in the rustbelt didn't involve incumbents who've historically been overperformers, and the polling always foreshadowed the R senate candidate overperforming Trump. This year there hasn't been a single poll that showed China Dave overperforming Trump, in fact he's underperforming Trump in pretty much all of them.

^read my data analysis post a couple posts up.
A lot of conservatives, indeed, compared McCormick to Pat Toomey over the years, dating back to 2022. (Pat Toomey was a carpetbagger from Rhode Island, FYI.) McCormick isn't the Trumplican populist archetype, might not even vote with Trump 100% (though he's recently come out in favor of tariffs) but there's no doubt he's an overperformer with the average independent voter especially compared to someone like Dr. Oz, and will win >97% of Trump voters too.
Mike Rogers also seems to be threading the needle with the old GOP guard and the new GOP populist guard and is a strong candidate. Eric Hovde is also a good candidate and will overperform Trump in the WOW counties, but not sure he'll win since the x-factor in WI is that Madison has been turning out in droves like never before and very very deep blue at all levels (even in special elections) with a vengeance since Roe was overturned in mid 2022. The Tim Michels comparison doesn't really apply to Senate because that's a state level election, but let's work with it. Tim Michels was a very poor public speaker, as was Doug Mastriano. Even though Michels wasn't running on "let's re-litigate muh 2020" unlike Mastriano, he was still a weak and unconfident public speaker. He didn't have the Scott Walker gift of gab, and WI was definitely another state the GOP underperformed across the board because of Dobbs v. Jackson, heck Ron Johnson was expected to win by a lean-to-likely margin but ended up winning by a frickin' tilt margin as the incumbent in a ~90% white state against a Black Nationalist challenger of all things... WI in 2022 was an embarrassment for the GOP, really across the rust belt as a whole. Trump on the ballot and moderating on abortion, holding true to the 10th amendment etc and Vance affirming the same, solves a lot of problems there.
Side note on Tim Michels, Trump picked him over the obvious winning choice (Rebecca Kleefisch) because she came out that summer in favor of DeSantis for President which angered Trump's ego, which likely put Michels barely over the top in the primary.
It's going to be close. I have AZ/NV going blue at both levels and Gallego outperforming Harris by 2.3%, and Rosen running in-line with Harris which is consistent with past data. The "China Dave" is a good nickname that the Casey campaign should absolutely use, PA may like outsiders but they don't like second world countries, see Dr. Oz's performances in 2022.
:lol if the guy who was this confident fat fuck JR Majewski would be Marcy Kaptur thinks Casey is losing, then I like Casey's chances
Was that post pre or post Dobbs though? I feel like Dobbs carried the DNC in the rust belt, and I recall specifically calling that out on Friday, June 24th, 2022.
<edit> I re-read your post quoting me that I'd met Majewski in WI and OH, which were in August and September 2022, so post-Dobbs, so, yeah, I was wrong. Focusing too heavy on the yard sign analysis and not following my earlier inclination that Dobbs was really going to hurt the GOP in key 2022 swing races in both the House and Senate.
Also Josh Stein's family moved to North Carolina when he was 3 years old, where he spent his entire childhood (he went to high school in Chapel Hill) and he moved back to NC after college. He's literally lived in North Carolina for his entire life beyond the first three years of it + the years he was attending school.
Even your whataboutism is fucking retarded :lol
I've read conflicting stories about Stein but the point is that, he comes off as a prototype oligarch "I'm smarter than you and thus I'm better than you" Ivy League lawyer rich globalist hypocrite from the mid Atlantic. I guess you're lucky he's up against one of the worst GOP gubernatorial candidates in recent history. Stein will win through the suburbs that Trump will carry but, don't be surprised if the margin is closer than expected, Stein won't get the typical Dixiecrat hillbilly vote that people like Cooper and Beshear are used to getting being native sons and non-Christian in a solidly Southern Baptist majority state, and Robinson has actually been on the ground with Helene relief in W.

Your "data" is just a rebranded version of your 2022 wish casting. You can try and revise history all you want but with someone like Michels, whatever speaking flaw you're claiming he has now it didn't stop you from predicting he was winning in 2022.

As far as the other races go - Hovde will definitely overperform Trump in WOW but Baldwin will overperform Harris in the rural areas. I think Baldwin favored but I also wouldn't be surprised if Hovde wins. Close race imo. The prediction that Rosen running in line with Harris makes no sense, polls have her doing significantly better which makes sense when her opponent is an election denying Freddie Kruger with a disgusting fucked up face :lol

The idea that red and blue waves happen 2 years after the opposite party president is elected was just too deeply ingrained after countless midterms and 2002 was so long ago that I just couldn't fathom a non red wave midterm in 2022, or a blue wave midterm in 2026 if Trump wins for example, and just underestimated the impact of abortion and also the Dems drastically improving their midterm campaign fundraising and financing from midterms in the past. I was wrong... I admit it. But I've been trying to correct my predictions this year using more pure data analysis rather than hearsay and stuff like vibes and yard signs.
The idea that Rosen wins by anywhere near the margin she's polling in currently is silly. I'd be happy to eat crow if Rosen wins by larger than her 2018 margin in a blue wave non-presidential year. But I feel like the shy Brown voter exists and a lot of it is indeed because of his face (and lack of name recognition), similar to the non-hardcore MAGA Trump voter people in Arizona not admitting they're actually going to vote for Kari Lake but they actually will "come home" for the most part.
David McCormick is a flawed candidate, sure, but less-so than Dr. Oz or someone overall terrible like Kathy Barnette, and finding quality GOP Senate candidates in PA has proven difficult for quite awhile now. Every GOP PA senator in the 21st century has either outright flipped to the other party or flipped on impeaching and convicting their own party's president, and the GOP wants to get away from that stench. I wanted Scott Perry, but he'd be a "flawed candidate" too because the Dems would probably tie him to endorsing project 2025 and being too close to Mastriano. Sean Parnell was an average possible candidate but he lost his House election in 2020 albeit close to a D incumbent and losers don't tend to do better the second or third time for either party (John James R-MI the exception not the rule). There's other congressmen you can pick, I mean Brian Fitzpatrick would probably beat Casey or Fetterman but he'd be another moderate like Toomey for sure and also you probably forfeit that House seat.
Stein is going to win by Shapiro margins against the filthy n!gger version of Doug Mastriano. It won't have any impact on the presidential race in the state, but Stein wins by 15+%.
We'll see about that. 2020 polls had Cooper winning by double digits and he eked it out and he was the incumbent. It's a "we'll see" at this point.
PA is definitely a big time Jewish state... [hence Oz being a very awkward choice in many ways for the GOP in '22]... NC not at all.
Pimping Robinson after Nude Africagate is...something....
Definitely not pimping him at all, just stating that even though NC splits for governor vs federal historically and even recently post polarization, the margin probably won't be as big as the mainstream people think.

It goes beyond Dobbs. 2010, 2014 and 2018 all involved massive demographic shifts that were already happening and were inevitable, in 2022 there wasn't really a demographic shift left for Republicans. The rural and exurban areas were already dark red. Same reason why 2026 likely won't be a huge wave year for Dems if Trump wins - there isn't a huge demographic shift in favor of Dems that's waiting to happen.

McCormick was the best possible candidate (Fitzpatrick wouldn't have ever won a primary), but that doesn't mean he's not flawed and it doesn't mean he's good enough to beat Casey. He's not (outside of a wave year for Republicans). Casey's last name gives him too much of an advantage in the state and he's too noncontroversial. The Pennsylvania Republicans just have an awful bench of candidates to run statewide, same reason they ended up with Mastriano in 2022.

I mean you're not totally wrong, I'm just a millennial that grew up with virtually nothing but opposite-of-POTUS-party wave years and so my expectations were accordingly.
Going forward at least in the shorter term the "wave" midterm years should be less and more tempered expectations for the opposition party than they used to be, I agree. At least in terms of the House and Senate.
The main target in 2026 for the Dems should be picking up House seats in very suburban districts that they couldn't quite pull off in 2024 due to the presidential ballot, be it the Schweikert's or Bacon's of the world, as well as seats in California and New York where a second-term Trump probably won't be popular amongst independent voters and the Dems could have the option of nationalizing those races to flip the House back and make Jeffries speaker by Jan. 2027.
The Senate is a rougher picture because the few GOP incumbents that you could argue might be vulnerable (Tillis, maybe you can make a case for Cornyn) are non controversial, non MAGA. We'll see who DeWine picks to fill Vance's seat, if it's LaRose the GOP should be fine holding there too. While, the Democrats will be playing defense in, at minimum, Georgia and Michigan, against potentially strong challengers like Kemp (but we'll see). The Maine flip for the Dems could be on the table but she's [Collins] a tough old bird up there and the ranked choice voting really hurts the Democrats there historically with centrist GOP incumbents like Collins and Olympia Snowe.
If you're trying to go by more by data and less by vibes, theorizing about shy voters without any foundation or basis isn't the smart thing to do :lol
It's less about vibes and more about historical trends and plausible explanations for why people getting polled aren't openly admitting they're voting for a guy with a scarred up face that looks like an albino Na`vi from Avatar, or a MAGA extremist alpha-woman who takes Trumpism and election denialism, media lambasting to a deep, dark extreme.
Your "[Sam Brown] looks like Freddie Kruger" or "[Lake] looks like a lesbian" is just as hearsay-ey and vibe-y as anything I've written.
Granted, I think Gallego and Rosen are both slight favorites at this point to win, (as well as Harris in both states very narrowly) but I'd be downright stunned and eat crow if either (D) senate candidate wins by a likely margin. Dean Heller wasn't really liked by either branch of the GOP base in 2018 fwiw.
McCormick was the best possible candidate (Fitzpatrick wouldn't have ever won a primary), but that doesn't mean he's not flawed and it doesn't mean he's good enough to beat Casey. He's not (outside of a wave year for Republicans). Casey's last name gives him too much of an advantage in the state and he's too noncontroversial. The Pennsylvania Republicans just have an awful bench of candidates to run statewide, same reason they ended up with Mastriano in 2022.
I agree that McCormick was the best possible candidate and that the PA GOP has a pretty awful bench that's about on par with a lot of their candidate benches in blue states. Most of the candidates that would win statewide elections are too bunch of an anathema to one side of the base or the other to both win a primary and win a general. You've got to dig deep, and you also can't look outside the state for candidates because then by default they'd be carpetbaggers, which is a catch-22, which is also largely why Jon Tester has lasted 18 years to this point, because it's hard to find people to run in Montana that are Montana born and raised like Tester. Even Sheehy himself is a carpetbagger from Minnesota, as was Rosendale from the mid-Atlantic, as was the guy before him that lost, etc. But Montana is just too polarized to the right at this point.
Another thing the Dems could do in Ohio is frame Moreno as a thuggin' and druggin' carpetbagger from Colombia, not sure if it'd get Brown over the hump with Trump on the ballot but it'd sure be funny and it's very effective in very patriotic places like Ohio and PA, e.g. tying Dr. Oz to Turkey.
Trump has pulled his Nevada spending. Not terribly surprising since it's not a state that's very useful for his path to 270, but still insane given how dead in the water Biden seemed in Nevada just a couple months ago.
1842308965310562784
That's interesting. I always had Nevada going blue, but yeah Sam Brown is cooked if this is true. I don't think the margins will be more than Harris + 2.4 what Hillary won in 2016, it's a polarized state, but the vibe has definitely been trending blue there since Harris was selected.
It also indicates that the hail-mary that Governor Jim Pillen and Trump tried to pull in Nebraska with changing to a winner-take-all state won't be happening for sure, and that Trump is not confident in NE-02, because punting Nevada also means punting the only path to victory without carrying any of the Rust Belt Three. (I mean, I guess Trump can win Virginia with the Youngkin map, but, I don't see it as super likely.)
Looks like Trump is going all in on the upper Midwest and populism and trying to replicate his 2016 map and no more. Maybe the right move. Can't spread yourself too thin like butter on too much bread, I guess.
If you go by Trump's rally schedule, including Vance rallies, it looks like they're putting all their eggs in six states: GA, AZ, MI, WI, PA, NC. https://www.donaldjtrump.com/events . Nevada, Minnesota, Virginia, New Mexico, and other "reach" states Trump had on the radar at least when Biden was still the nominee, look to have been abandoned.
I've also heard over the phone from Trump insiders that Trump really wants to win on election night like 2016, not later, so it makes more sense to barrel harder in the swing states that aren't in the west because those take forever to count because they're majority mail-in. Meaning, less emphasis on Nevada and also Arizona, though the GOP has a much better ground game in Arizona at the moment. Turning Point USA has gotten a lot of funding in the last few years and they're based in Arizona and they're going hard in the state, so that should give Trump (and Lake) a better chance there in any case.

That's what I've been saying, the polls are massively off with the split ticket and are fucking stupid, just like they had Hogan and Tester ahead in the springtime which are equally stupid. Expect a massive narrowing in polling by election day similar to 2016 in the senate races and don't expect much split ticketing. In Arizona the "Trump / Kelly" split ticket voter was massively overrated by polls, sometimes 6-8% and up, and yet when the votes were counted the difference was a paltry 2.3%, and I don't expect much different in 2024.
Late September/Early October polls are historically horrible, they overestimated Dems in 2016 and 2020 especially down ballot and they overestimated the GOP in many cases in 2022 (Dixon, Oz, Michels, Masters et al). The late October and first week of November polls leading up to E-Day are much more accurate.

I can definitely see a D president winning but with the GOP winning 54-55 Senate seats (because McCormick, Rogers, and Hovde will all outperform Trump as they typically do in the rust belt in 2016 and 2020 by around 1% or so. Fact: A GOP rust belt Senate candidate has never underperformed Trump on the same ballot. Also, those three are strong candidates, and not the Dr. Oz's and Herschel Walker's of the world. You could make a case that Rogers is the strongest GOP Senate candidate in Michigan they've put up in decades. John James wasn't even a great candidate, and almost took out an incumbent Gary Peters.) -- and retain a slim House majority.

I actually think it's the case, Biden got soft-couped out and wants to stick it to Harris, he never liked her in the first place since she hurt his feelings in 2019, the DNC forced her on him in 2020 and now he'd like to stick it to her in 2024 but also I think Biden, Obama and a lot of Dems are aware that they're probably better off losing this time around and letting the GOP implode on itself beyond. The problem for the Dems about losing this year is all the Senate seats up that won't split ticket.

Poll: Donald Trump leads Kamala Harris with Puerto Ricans in Florida
Even after a toxic news cycle driven by a comic’s ill-advised comments about Puerto Ricans at a Donald Trump rally, the former President holds a marginal lead with that constituency in a new poll.
Trump is up by two points against Kamala Harris in the survey released by Cygnal and shared first with Florida Politics.
The survey was conducted between Oct. 26 and Oct. 28, encompassing Sunday, when the comedian “Kill Tony” said Puerto Rico was an “island of garbage” at the former President’s rally in Madison Square Garden.
Democrats linked those comments to Trump, but at least in this survey, the former President isn’t suffering collateral damage with the group maligned by the roast comic’s untimely routine.
The marginal lead with Puerto Ricans is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Trump’s strength and that of others with Hispanics in this poll.
Trump has 50% support among Hispanic voters overall, which Cygnal notes is better than his 46% in 2020’s race against Joe Biden and the 35% he had against Hillary Clinton in 2016.
A big source of that strength: Trump being up 28 points with Cuban Americans.
Trump is at 49% approval among Hispanics overall, against 49% disapproval. In contrast, Harris is at 45% approval and 50% disapproval.

Forgetting about demographics for a second.
That is absolutely horrible numbers for Trump and the GOP in Florida.
If he doesn't win Florida by near double or double digits, he's not winning the election.
Then again, polls typically historically massively underestimate him and the GOP in Florida especially in recent elections. I think DeSantis and Rubio outperformed polls by like 8%.

Chances of Trump winning popular vote but losing election are increasing.
https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2024/trump-vs-harris
Trump up nationally by 0.4% with +1 and +2 polls being released in favor of Trump. Harris is up by under 0.5% in WI and MI and even though Trump leads PA the polls don't tend to miss in favor of Trump in PA like they do in WI or MI historically. Trump is already crying cheating in PA and McCormick is a poll overperformer.
I hope Trump wins the popular vote but Harris wins the electoral college (just for shits and giggles) at the last minute after some 5am vote dumps or whatever to put her just barely over the top in WI, MI, and PA, just for shits and giggles to make him cry again. Man that would be epic, :lol
But hopefully the GOP ends up with between 54 and 57 Senate seats because of very narrow ticket splitting that is in line with past very narrow ticket splitting in favor of the rust-belt GOP Senate candidates in 2016 and 2020. So we'll have gridlock which is good. Hopefully the GOP also retains at least a slight house majority, which would naturally largely be by virtue of winning the popular vote by flipping/retaining districts in blue and purple states. Gridlock is best case scenario because you get a limit on spending and government power. And you're unlikely to get a partisan hack in the supreme court if the president and senate are opposite controlled.
In the sun belt Kari Lake has been surging and it'd piss off the libs epically if she won that senate seat after all :lol Trump will likely have to carry AZ by 2.3% or better for Lake to win, but it's plausible

In such a case the result would be 270-268 Harris, which in ordinary years you might have to worry about defective faithless electors, but in this circumstance you better believe that both sides would be putting up the most vetted, faithless electors possible to certify party line on Jan 6. The Dems did a horrible job of that in 2016 but it didn't really matter.
the alternative scenario to avoid that would be giving Harris Nevada very narrowly to provide a cushion of up to 6 faithless electors which would be more than enough (276-262 Harris), which would net the GOP a realistic maximum of 56 senate seats (don't really see NV split ticketing) which would still be plenty. (Cue the spongebob gutter picture of all the GOP swing race candidates winning but Trump losing.)
but yes, that would be by far the funniest way for trump to lose and be kicked out of politics.

I've said that since you libs decided to go ridin with Biden
The fact that you're now standing shoulder to shoulder with Dick Cheney should tell you something

That your Trump is an unprecedented disaster. You have shitty judgment which is why you have to declare victory no matter what.:tu

Scenario 1: Trump wins the popular vote and the ostensible electoral majority outright.
Possibly complicated by his scheduled criminal sentencing before his inauguration, but in this instance I think Harris concedes.
Scenario 2: Harris wins the popular vote and the ostensible electoral majority. Trump will not concede.
If the states do not certify the electors on time, an ostensibly winning Harris can be deprived of electoral votes.
Whatever dispute issues at that point is a federal matter under the ECRA that eventually ends up before a very partisan SCOTUS, that can pretty much be relied upon to propel Trump to his ultimate potency.

Scenario 3: Harris wins with an overwhelming popular vote. Not a landslide, but a decisive margin.
Trump will not concede and shenanigans will ensue, but they will be -- possibly -- less convincing.
