Even top pollsters are uncertain this time about the actual scenario of the US elections, where Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are stuck in a major political deadlock, with election trends showing that they are leading and trailing within the margin-of-error, which means that the fight can go either way when the election commences.

Were pollsters accurate in the past US elections?

The US elections 2024 are knocking at the doors, and almost in no time, it will be decided who gets to go to the White House as the winner of the polls. Meanwhile, there are certain concerns about the accuracy of the election trends and latest data that are doing the rounds, as the nation's pulse this time is becoming increasingly tough to understand.

For starters, national pollsters where all gunning for a Hillary Clinton victory in the 2016 Presidential elections, but it was Donald Trump who ultimately emerged as the winner, even though top pollsters had rooted for Clinton till the last day of the US elections.


Is Donald Trump ahead in the US election race?

2020 polls clearly depicted a Joe Biden lead right from the start of the election race. He was in fact, given a massive lead in the poll data, but the reigning President could not manage to secure that many votes, as was being predicted. If the US poll data this year is majorly off, this clearly means that Donald Trump is ahead in the election race and could be heading for an electoral landslide in the November 5 polls.
