In the final weeks leading up to the election, pre-election polls indicated a tight race between Trump and Harris, with predictions aligning closely with the eventual outcomes.
Despite discrepancies, polls suggested that leads of about 1% were effectively ties, demonstrating that the election was indeed competitive and the results closely matched polling forecasts.
The New York Times's forecast model anticipated Trump's national popular vote victory was around 1.5 points, suggesting that Harris's polling lead missed by 2.5 points on average.
The final analysis indicated polling was off by about three percentage points overall, but much closer, varying by approximately two percentage points in battleground states.
