2024 Election Predictions: Close election expected with key battleground states

According to political expert Chris Matthews, the 2024 election is likely to be a closely contested battle. Matthews predicts that the usual Democratic and Republican states will largely remain loyal to their respective parties, and the election will come down to key battleground states such as Arizona, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Georgia. However, Matthews notes that Georgia might be trending towards the Democrats with its strong and tough governor. He also highlights the importance of the economy, with low employment numbers but a lingering threat of inflation. Matthews suggests that if Trump wins in 2024, it could be due to the issue of inflation, as the impact of rising prices is felt by people, especially concerning gas prices. He believes that inflation will continue to be a significant factor in the next election.
