Who Is Favored To Win The 2024 Presidential Election?
538 uses polling, economic and demographic data to explore likely election outcomes.
Trump wins 53 times out of 100
in our simulations of the 2024 presidential election.
Harris wins 46 times out of 100.
There is a less than 1-in-100 chance of no Electoral College winner.


While that model leans a little toward Trump, it's essentially a coin toss.

And pollsters get it wrong. They got it most famously wrong in 2016, but think back just two years ago to the "Red Wave" that was predicted in the midterms. It turned out to be a gigantic fizzle.
