    We are close to the election. Lots of opinions and predictions. OK, now it's time to stick your neck out if you wish to be on record. State your prediction results for the election between Trump and Biden. Just post your numbers and don't explain or post a narrative. Just the numbers please. After the election we can all have a good laugh at how dumb we all are. I'll go first . . .
    ---
    Biden will win by 1,300,000 popular votes.
    Trump will win in the Electoral College – Trump 339 votes, Biden 199.

    Biden takes all the swing states except Ohio and Texas, giving him 357 EV.

    I suspect something similar to 2016, but closer in Biden’s favor due to the uptick in early voting. Putting all the polling evidence together, i have Biden carrying Michigan and Pennsylvania, but not Ohio and Florida, which still would give Biden enough points to reach 270.

    That is if Biden carries Nevada and Arizona in the west with Wisconsin, Minnesota and one other state in the Midwest which could potentially be Iowa.

    Trump in a landslide both popular and EC. It's similar to the Reagan landslide....for me.

    Trump wins, but no one can prove it for some months. Until then, its recounts, court battles, MSM disinfo campaigns and big city riots all winter.

    I predict it will be a close race if it is not an unclose race.

    Biden win on the night.

    Nobody sensible wants months of rioting and 4 more years of Trump.

    Trump lost too many Republican-leaning independents and moderates, and the reason they’re not going to give him a second term is because his mouth has surpassed their tolerance level to a point of no return. It boils down to six letters....Enough!

    Thus, I believe said Republican-leaning independents and moderates will give Biden the Presidency.

    So looking at early voting in South Florida, it looks like Biden voters are not turning out - so Trump wins Florida and wins the Electoral College by a very slim margin.

    The country will erupt in protests and it will be a mess. I’m pulling more money out of the market and will shift it to overseas stocks. Trump will win the battle - but it will not be a good thing.

    That’s my jaded look to the future.

    As I said in the other thread:

    -Biden ekes out a very narrow victory, by taking three of the four most important battleground states, WI, PA, MN and MI. He also takes Arizona but loses FL.

    -Biden wins the popular vote, but only by a slightly larger margin than 2016, 3.5 million.

    -The Dems gain in the Senate, possibly getting a tie, or, if lucky, win the majority by one seat.

    -The Dems keep the House majority.

    -Trump will declare a landslide if the wins, no matter how small the margin, and he will claim the Dems stole the election if he loses.

    Overall, it will be a lot closer than what the polls suggest. I am nervous, fearing a repeat of 2016.

    Quote; It looks like Biden voters are not turning out

    Biden voters are the opposite of large gatherings, no mask, no distancing, thus, Covid19 concerned common sense people, and that explains his low voters turn out compared to Trump. Basically, I’m putting myself in their shoes.

    However, a disadvantage for Biden as Trump likes to politicize his crowds versus the other.

    I believe Trump has already maxed out his support, and his voters turn out are mainly anti-mask, anti-mandate, anti-limitations, anti-lockdowns, anti-science, anti-deep state, thus, mainly a rebellious crowd, and nationally, they represent a minority.

    The only way Biden wins will be by fraud. Everything at the moment looks like 2016 only this time the map is a little redder.

    Trump would win in landslide, but due to voting irregularities Biden may edge out a victory. Biden would then conveniently die and Harris will turn this nation Socialist.

    Trump will win. Polls will be wrong again despite their supposedly improved methodology, due to a simple fact: Things have been more polarized now than they were even in the recent past, and Trump supporters are now more paranoid than before, with all the talk of deep state and MSM media; they are reluctant to say that they will vote for Trump if a pollster calls.

    Therefore, it is likely that the polls are grossly underestimating Trump voters.

    Well get the same result of 2016: Biden wins the popular vote but Trump wins the electoral college.

    For a moment I accepted pollster's explanations about improved methodology and was convinced that Biden would win. No longer. now I'm firmly predicting a win by Donald Trump.

    I'm fully aware that this contradicts even very recent posts of mine. But when I snap out of my denial, I realize that Trump will win.

    Actually Biden is ahead in both. I give him Florida because I live in one of the most right-wing areas in the state, and I don't see much enthusiasm for Trump here. If they are asked by a pollster who they prefer, they will likely say Trump. Not that likely they will actually make an effort to go out and vote for him, though. Lots of movement and enthusiasm for Biden. As for Texas, it's a big question mark for me. So I'll err on the safe side and give it to Trump. All the states in which I am in doubt I gave to Trump.

    I'm very hopeful over AZ turning blue, and I believe there is a legit shot at TX to going blue. FL is still a toss-up.

    I'm saying Biden will win, and the Dems will take back the Senate.
