Summary

Allan Lichtman, an American historian with a perfect track record since 1984, predicts that Joe Biden will defeat Donald Trump in the 2024 U.S. presidential election.

Abstract

Allan Lichtman, a distinguished historian and professor at American University, has accurately predicted every presidential election outcome since 1984. His method, known as "The Keys to the White House," is a system of thirteen true/false statements that gauge the performance of the incumbent party. Lichtman has announced his prediction that Joe Biden will win the 2024 election against Donald Trump, basing his forecast on the premise that voter satisfaction with the current administration's governance is the primary determinant of election results, rather than campaign dynamics. The article also touches on the legal betting market for presidential elections, where Biden, Trump, and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis are seen as the top contenders. Additionally, the author of the article, Jan Sebastian, shares personal anecdotes about their life post-stroke and encourages readers to support their writing by buying them a cup of coffee.

He knows his stuff! So far, he’s been right every single time!

The historian who has correctly predicted every presidential election since 1984 — including President Donald Trump’s win in 2016 — has announced his pick for 2020: Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden.

Allan Lichtman, an author and history professor at American University, revealed his prediction is Biden in 2024. in an op-ed video for The New York Times published in the NY Times.

Lichtman’s predictive method — which puts him in the minority of analysts who were right in calling Trump’s win in 2016— largely ignores the detailed cross-tab polling analyses and swing state bean-counting that are often prioritized in modern political punditry.

From the content of his system…

Allan Lichtman concludes that voters select the next president mainly on how they feel the incumbent president has governed the country.

If the voters are satisfied with the condition of the country, they will re-elect the incumbent president, or whoever from his party runs in his stead.

If the voters are dissatisfied, they will transfer the presidency to the rival party.

The election campaign has little if any meaningful effect on the voters. Voters are not swayed by the spectacle of campaigning.

Whether the voters are correct to blame the president for the country’s specific problems is another matter; the point is that the election campaign is irrelevant. Voters vote retrospectively, not prospectively.

Predicting the Next President: The Keys to the White House

Here Below are his, “The Keys to the White House is a checklist” of thirteen true/false statements that pertain to the circumstances surrounding a presidential election.

Here’s how it works.

When five or fewer of the following statements are false, the incumbent party candidate is predicted to win the election. When six or more are false, the incumbent party is predicted to lose.

  1. Midterm gains: After the midterm elections, the incumbent party holds more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives than after the previous midterm elections.
  2. No primary contest: There is no serious contest for the incumbent party nomination.
  3. Incumbent seeking re-election: The incumbent party candidate is the sitting president.
  4. No third party: There is no significant third party or independent campaign.
  5. Strong short-term economy: The economy is not in recession during the election campaign.
  6. Strong long-term economy: Real per capita economic growth during the term equals or exceeds mean growth during the previous two terms.
  7. Major policy change: The incumbent administration affects major changes in national policy.
  8. No social unrest: There is no sustained social unrest during the term.
  9. No scandal: The incumbent administration is untainted by major scandals.
  10. No foreign/military failure: The incumbent administration suffers no major failure in foreign or military affairs.
  11. Major foreign/military success: The incumbent administration achieves major success in foreign or military affairs.
  12. Charismatic incumbent: The incumbent party candidate is charismatic or a national hero.
  13. Uncharismatic challenger: The challenging party candidate is not charismatic or a national hero.

“The pollsters and the pundits cover elections as though they were horse races,” Lichtman said in the Times’ video. “But history tells us voters are not fooled by the tricks of the campaign. Voters vote pragmatically according to how well the party holding the White House has governed the country.”

Polls are “snapshots in time,” Lichtman said.

“None of this in the end has any impact whatsoever on the outcome of a presidential election.”
