Miller’s model is based on prediction and betting markets, most notably the platform ‘PredictIt’. The prediction shows a significant swing towards Harris. Trump’s lead, which was previously 196 votes, has now reduced to just 80, with further losses anticipated.

According to the final Times poll before the US election, Kamala Harris is set to become America’s first female president. The poll predicts Harris winning the “blue wall” battlegrounds of the north, as well as Nevada in the west, while Donald Trump is forecast to win Georgia and hold North Carolina. The two are evenly matched in Arizona. If these predictions hold, Harris would win the presidency by a margin of 276 electoral college votes to 262, making it the closest finish since 2000. Nonetheless, the poll falls within the margin of error for each of the states, leaving the race’s outcome uncertain.

Puerto Ricans in Florida have made their voices undeniably clear, and the recent poll revealing overwhelming support for Kamala Harris while viewing Donald Trump unfavorably struck a chord in me. The numbers are staggering—85% of those surveyed are poised to back Harris, while just a meager 8% express support for Trump. This isn’t just another statistic; it’s a loud and proud declaration from a community that treasures its identity and rights in the American political landscape.
As someone who has immersed myself in conversations about Puerto Rican experiences and political sentiments, it’s refreshing to witness this level of engagement, especially after the unadulterated apathy that sometimes envelops voter participation.… Continue reading

His filing in a US district court in Amarillo, Texas termed CBS’s actions as malicious and deceptive. CBS has dismissed the claim as “completely without merit.” The row follows Trump suggesting that CBS should lose its news broadcast license.
