The race for president between Kamala Harris (left) and Donald Trump is tied from a statistical standpoint.

An Editorial Opinion

The external and internal polling data available to my group of independent voter influencers suggest that the 2024 race for president may be the closest election for the White House in U.S. history.

To date, there is no clear leader in the national polls. This is particularly true in the seven swing states.

Endorsements by celebrities like Taylor Swift, Martha Stewart, and George Clooney have done little to move the needle in Kamala Harris's favor. Likewise, Donald Trump's numbers and percentages in the polls appear to be stagnant.

Our group of independent voter influencers has developed a unique political infrastructure to deliver a decisive block of undecided independent voters in the seven swing states (i.e., Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, and Wisconsin) to the presidential candidate of our choice. 

Our state-of-the-art “block voting” delivery system is next generation political infrastructure.  We are confident that it will serve as a model voter delivery system in the November election, as well as close presidential elections in the future where losing is not an acceptable option.

There are more than 90 electoral votes across these seven swing states we have targeted.  These states will determine whether Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will become the 47th President of the United States.

Due to the closeness of the race, our group of independents has decided to conduct one more round of internal polling in the seven swing states before announcing our preferred candidate for president.  As such, we are deferring our planned presidential endorsement announcement until the end of September.
