To the Editor:
With the election fast approaching, everyone loves to place bets on who will win. This year is a highly important election year and will determine if many of our country’s problems will be solved over the next four years. Thus, as the tradition goes, here are my predictions:
Winning states for President Trump are Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska (Democratic win in 2nd District), Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia, Wyoming.
Former Vice President Joe Biden will win Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Maine (Republican win in 2nd District), Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin.
The electoral vote will be Biden 306 to Trump 232. The popular vote will be 68,313,800 Biden to 58,715,300 Trump. All in all, the election results will not be given the night of the election, but rather a full week later and will be consequential in the rest of American history.
