In the face of recent polls giving former President Donald Trump an edge, American University professor Dr. Allan Lichtman is standing by his prediction that Vice President Kamala Harris will be the victor.
Despite recent polls giving former President Donald Trump an edge in the 2024 presidential election, American University professor Dr. Allan Lichtman is standing by his prediction that Vice President Kamala Harris will come out on top.
Lichtman, 77, has been dubbed by some the election “Nostradamus” due to his track record of predicting nine of the past 10 presidential contests. In September, he went all-in on a Democratic win.
“Nothing has changed to change my prediction that I made on September 5, deliberately before the supposed ‘pivotal’ Trump-Harris debate — according to the pundits — which proved to be pivotal not one bit if you believe the polls,” Lichtman explained during a live stream Tuesday.
The prof revealed that he’s since been peppered with questions about whether he intends to switch his prediction in light of polls showing Trump edging in front of Harris in swing states.
The RealClearPolitics average of polls showed Trump, 78, leading Harris, 60, by 0.
