    And similarly, Trump is not going to win New York. Trump is lying and saying we might win New York and New Jersey, but he is not going to.

    The election will not depend on New Jersey, which has nearly half a million Puerto Ricans. Kamala Harris is going to win that.

    Carrie Lake is about to lose her race for senate in Arizona... In all likelihood, Carrie Lake will be defeated once again... So Kari Lake lost in 2022, will almost certainly lose in 2024

    I feel really good. I think Donald Trump's gonna win. I wouldn't say it's a lock, but the way that the other candidate is acting tells me she's got horrible, horrible numbers that she's looking at.

    I also feel good about North Carolina. You know, it's just one of those states that's broken late and broken our way time after time over the last ten years, and it's just a matter of banking those... I think we can get it done.

  • Hit · 100Isaac SaulRace Winners2024 season

    Two Fridays ago, I shared my predictions for the twenty twenty four election. In that addition, I predicted Harris was on track to lose Michigan... Democratic representative Alyssa Slotkin's warning that Harris was underwater in internal polling solidified my sense that she's going to lose this state. Nothing that's happened since has changed my mind about that prediction.

    it would take something very surprising, I think, for the Democrats to win the Montana senate race right now even though Jon Tester is a good candidate. It's just the nature of our polarized times.

    And I see no reason why the late break shouldn't be even tiny bit to Harris... I think she could well win. I actually do think she's gonna win.
