More than 10 days ago, my predictive model indicated Donald Trump as the likely winner of the 2024 presidential election. This led me to publish an article titled “Predicting 2024: How AI and Lichtman’s 13 Keys Can Foresee the Next President” on October 28, where I suggested that while Allan Lichtman’s 13 Keys model pointed to Kamala Harris as the winner, it required a more comprehensive approach with AI enhancements to achieve accuracy. Six days later, in my follow-up article, “Could Trump Win in 2024? Signs of a Possible GOP Sweep Are Emerging,” I presented additional evidence supporting a GOP victory.
