'New Nostradamus' predicts Kamala Harris will win the 2024 US election
After Kamala Harris replaced Joe Biden as the Democratic Party candidate, Donald Trump stated that she would be easier to defeat in the 2024 US elections. Following an assassination attempt, self-proclaimed psychic Craig Hamilton, known as the 'New Nostradamus,' predicted that Trump could win the election.
However, now historian Allan Lichtman , who has been dubbed the Nostradamus of presidential election predictions, has forecast that Harris will beat Donald Trump in the upcoming election.
American University professor Allan Lichtman has correctly predicted 9 out of the last 10 presidential elections. For instance, in 2016, he predicted that Trump would beat Hillary Clinton, and in 2020, he predicted Joe Biden would win over Trump.
The historian has now predicted that Harris will win over Trump in the November 5 election, and the Democrats will keep the White House. In a video posted by the New York Times, Lichtman said:
The Democrats will hold on to the White House, and Kamala Harris will be the next president of the United States. At least, that’s my prediction for this race.
According to CNBC, Lichtman uses his 13 Keys to the White House model to predict election results. These include factors like economic stability and the absence of major scandals. He developed the unique system in the 1980s with Russian geophysicist Vladimir Keilis-Borok.
Lichtman’s predictive model, which has consistently proven reliable for decades, relies on a true-or-false system of 13 conditions. If six or more statements are false, then the challenger is predicted to win. The 13 statements are as follows:
True statements
Challenger charisma: The challenging party candidate is not charismatic or a national hero.
Scandal: The incumbent administration is untainted by major scandals.
Policy change: The incumbent administration effects major changes in national policy.
Social unrest: There is no sustained social unrest during the term.
Short-term economy: The economy is not in recession during the election campaign.
Long-term economy: Real per-capita economic growth during the term equals or exceeds mean growth during the previous two terms.
False statements
Party mandate: After the midterm elections, the incumbent party holds more seats in the US House of Representatives than it did after the previous midterm elections.
Incumbency: The incumbent-party candidate is the sitting president.
Incumbent charisma: The incumbent-party candidate is charismatic or a national hero.
Undecided statements
According to Lichtman, the final two keys involving foreign policies can be ‘tricky’ and could flip anytime. Regardless of both statements flipping, they ‘would not be enough’ for Trump ‘to regain the White House.’ He added:
The keys absolutely will work. They are the constant northern star of political prediction. The outcome is up to you. So get out and vote.
