As the countdown to the November 5 election begins, a prediction from Northwestern University data scientist Thomas Miller has captured attention, suggesting that Vice President Kamala Harris is poised for a significant victory against Donald Trump.
Known for his accurate forecast of the 2020 election results, Miller’s latest analysis indicates that Harris could secure approximately 55% of the popular vote, translating into a potential landslide in the Electoral College.
Miller’s forecasting method diverges from conventional polling, relying instead on betting markets to gauge voter sentiment. He argues that these markets provide a more dynamic and real-time reflection of public opinion compared to traditional surveys, which often lag behind current trends.

“It’s gone from a drastic landslide in Trump’s direction to a drastic landslide for Harris,” Miller stated in an interview with Fortune Magazine.
Recent polling data corroborates Miller’s claims, showing Harris leading Trump in key battleground states such as Pennsylvania and Michigan. In Pennsylvania, she holds a six-point advantage, while in Michigan, she is ahead by five points.
This momentum has been bolstered by endorsements from influential figures like Taylor Swift, further energizing her campaign as the election date approaches.
With Miller’s predictions indicating a possible repeat of historic electoral margins reminiscent of past landslides, the political landscape appears increasingly favorable for Harris as both candidates gear up for what promises to be a contentious race.
