In an intense electoral saga, the presidential race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump has taken a dramatic twist, as new projections from political data scientist Thomas Miller reveal a shocking comeback for Trump. Miller, who insists his forecasting model based on betting data has proven more reliable than conventional polls, now shows Trump edging ahead with 270 electoral votes to Harris’s 268, a startling shift considering Harris’s recent lead. “This is the first time in history that a race has gone from a tossup to a landslide for one party, then back to a tossup, and now nearing another landslide for the other party,” Miller stated.
The rollercoaster nature of this race reflects voters‘ shifting sentiments influenced possibly by global events, such as tensions in the Middle East. Miller notes that the fluctuating odds on political betting site PredictIT mirror a divided electorate, with fears of conflict impacting voter preferences. As the election day approaches, the race remains too close to call, with projections indicating an unpredictable final stretch leading up to November 5.
