Who will win US Election - Gut feelings

665 replies

EveryBiteinBangkok · 24/10/2024 13:00

I have been half following online and media coverage of the US Election. It is getting close now. What is your gut feeling on who is going to win?

About a month ago, I felt fairly confident that Kamala Harris would win (who I want to win). Now though I am not sure and the amount of rumour and almost conspiracy around it online seems to be reaching fever pitch.

If you had to place a bet (grand national style) who would you go for?

Trump (sadly)

EveryBiteinBangkok · 24/10/2024 13:02

That is where my gut is going and it is scary.

Really hope it’s Harris. Reports from key states suggest Trump, though 😱

Trump, unfortunately.

Clearinguptheclutter · 24/10/2024 13:04

Trump sadly
I do hope I’m wrong

I’m not very impressed by Harris at all though having a black woman in probably the most powerful position on earth is a good thing.

It will be trump

EveryBiteinBangkok · 24/10/2024 13:06

I read one of the top US pollsters Nat Silver is now also predicting trump.

Trump

suburberphobe · 24/10/2024 13:08

I also have a horrible feeling that Trump is going to win, God help us all.

taggy321 · 24/10/2024 13:08

Too close to call. If Harris was male she'd easily win.

AlteredStater · 24/10/2024 13:09

Trump. I don't like either candidate for various reasons but I do think Trump will be elected.

Charcol · 24/10/2024 13:11

Trump

TheNoonBell · 24/10/2024 13:12

Trump (hopefully)

EasternStandard · 24/10/2024 13:12

A few weeks ago Harris but now really close but maybe Trump

ChardonnaysBeastlyCat · 24/10/2024 13:12

Harris.

Scutterbug · 24/10/2024 13:14

I think Trump unfortunately. I think he’s a very dangerous man to have in charge of a country.

Newterm · 24/10/2024 13:14

Trump will win

MrsBennetsPoorNerves · 24/10/2024 13:14

Sadly, I agree with those who think Trump will win. Really hope I'm wrong but it isn't looking good.

Dabralor · 24/10/2024 13:15

I think trump will get it due to the electoral college. The US is scunnered either way, really. If harris wins it will be january 6 all over again.

Onyxvontrollenberg · 24/10/2024 13:15

We and the planet are absolutely fucked if Trump wins. Let’s be honest.
Absolutely mind boggling that a liberal western democracy can go down this path. Ukraine will be screwed, Putin likely more confident. Other countries involved.

Lonelycrab · 24/10/2024 13:16

The orange horror, sadly.

I think it may be like the Clinton/Trump election in that Harris will win the popular vote though, not that that means anything.

Eviebeans · 24/10/2024 13:16

Trump

Meathrosie · 24/10/2024 13:16

I think Trump will win (narrowly)

StillAtTheRestaurant · 24/10/2024 13:19

Harris. The abortion issue is huge and it will bring votes her way.

LadyDanburysHat · 24/10/2024 13:19

I have never once thought Harris would win, despite that being my desperate hope. You just have to read comments like someone who's inlaws are democrats but voting for Trump as they will not vote for a woman. I think it's easy to forget how different to the UK that the US is.
