Alan Lichtman's Presidential Prediction Model

Alan Lichtman's prediction model for U.S. presidential elections relies on 13 keys that evaluate various factors influencing election outcomes. Unlike traditional methods that consider polls and economic indicators, Lichtman’s approach incorporates subjective qualities like the charisma of candidates. His model has demonstrated a notable accuracy, correctly forecasting the results of five out of the last six elections, including Donald Trump's win in 2016. This unconventional method suggests that election outcomes may hinge on deeper historical and social trends rather than merely current events or economic conditions.
