Axis My America predicted US results spot on, says pollster Pradeep Gupta

Pollster Pradeep Gupta claimed on Wednesday that his Axis My America predicted the US election results spot on while many local pollsters missed the mark. The Axis My India chief, who was considered to be the poster boy of exit polls in India, faced flak this year after his predictions for Lok Sabha polls and Haryana Assembly elections proved to be wide off the mark. Gupta said his company has a "track record" of forecasting 70 out of 76 elections correctly. "As counting enters the final lap, Axis My America's prediction of Donald Trump getting elected as the next US President is spot on for both popular vote and electoral votes. While many local pollsters missed the mark, Axis My America, which is a subsidiary of Axis My India, got it bang on," Gupta wrote in a post on X. Gupta tagged a post by him on Monday predicting Trump's victory in US polls. With results continuing to come in from various states giving a clear indication of a Trump victory, the 78-year-old Republican leader

Trump, Harris rack up early wins as America awaits battleground results

Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris notched early wins in reliably Republican and Democratic states, respectively, as a divided America made its decision in a stark choice for the nation's future Tuesday. Polls closed in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, Wisconsin and North Carolina, six of the seven closely fought battlegrounds expected to decide the election, but the results there were too early to call. Balloting continued in Nevada and other parts of the West on Election Day, as tens of millions of Americans added their ballots to the 84 million cast early as they chose between two candidates with drastically different temperaments and visions for the country. Trump won Florida, a one-time battleground that has shifted heavily to Republicans in recent elections.

US Election Day voting unfolds smoothly with some scattered issues, delays

Election Day voting unfolded largely smoothly across the nation Tuesday with only scattered reports of delays from extreme weather, ballot printing errors and technical problems. Most of the hiccups occurring by midday were largely expected routine and planned-for events, said Cait Conley, senior adviser to the director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, in a press briefing. She said the agency was not currently tracking any national, significant incidents impacting election security. In swing-state Pennsylvania, early reports that Republican poll watchers were not allowed into some polling sites were soon resolved. A Pennsylvania state judge ordered polls to remain open for two extra hours in Cambria County, which voted 68 per cent for former President Donald Trump in 2020. The county sought the extension after a software malfunction affected ballot-scanning machines, though county officials confirmed no one was turned away from the polls and said all ballots .

What is Electoral College and how does US use it to elect presidents?

Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016 because of the Electoral College. So did George W. Bush in 2000. The Electoral College is the unique American system of electing presidents. It is different from the popular vote, and it has an outsize impact on how candidates run and win campaigns. Republicans Trump and Bush lost the popular vote during their presidential runs but won the Electoral College to claim the nation's top office. Some Democrats charge that the system favours Republicans and they would rather the United States elect presidents by a simple majority vote. But the country's framers set up the system in the Constitution, and it would require a constitutional amendment to change. A look at the Electoral College and how it works, as Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for president, compete for the White House on Election Day, November 5. What is the Electoral College? The Electoral College is a 538-member body that elects a president. The fram
