As the 2024 US presidential race approaches its culmination, people on both sides of the Atlantic are left wondering: who will win?
Opinion polls leave no definitive answer to this question, with both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris showing equal odds to become the next resident of the Oval Office.
With this in mind, Sputnik decided to take a look into the past and compare the outcomes of the US presidential elections that took place during the past 100 years to see which of the dominant political parties – Democratic or Republican – emerged triumphant more often.
Check out our infographic to know more.

Washington DC is seeing a lot of boarded-up storefronts and buildings. The New York Times is even hinting at the possibility of violence from disenchanted Donald Trump supporters.
Wall Street analyst Charles Ortel doesn't buy into the assumption.
"Republicans are a tiny percentage of registered voters [in DC] so it is pure fiction and likely projection that they are poised for mayhem," Ortel told Sputnik. "The truth in a fair contest is that Trump and Vance are set to trounce Harris and Walz – deluded Democrats and reliable Antifa and Black Lives Matter mobsters are the ones set to riot, and certainly not Republicans, because they will be celebrating."
It seems that the efforts by the corporate media and influencers to sell the Biden-Harris Administration as a "transformative success" have fallen flat. It's becoming clear that things are actually worse now than they were under Trump, pre-Covid, according to the analyst.
"Political insiders know that Harris is a far worse candidate than Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden were in 2016 and 2020 and that Trump and Vance are a potent slate backed by tens of millions of motivated and enthusiastic voters, who likely will win decisively, absent widespread cheating," he said.
He doesn't rule out that those who poured a whopping $1 billion into the Harris-Walz ticket are preparing to throw a spanner in the works for Trump and JD Vance. They might even try to invalidate the 2024 results if the former president and his running mate win.
"I hope cooler heads prevail in what remains of the Democrat party. As of this moment, Trump and Vance seem poised to win a decisive mandate against the Deep State swamp, likely with control of the Senate and a stronger majority in the House," Ortel concluded.

Americans have come a long way since the 2020 election, becoming both “angrier” and “wiser” than before, says retired US Air Force Lt.Col. Karen Kwiatkowski, who is also a former analyst for the US Department of Defense.
“My prediction is that we will not have this giant breakdown in society no matter who wins. We will not have this new civil war if Trump wins or if Kamala Harris is named the winner,” she postulates. If Harris wins, Kwiatkowski suggests, the Republicans will be “enraged” and there may be “marches on Washington,” but these actions will be taken “in the context of understanding how the state, how DC, how the federal government will respond to them.”
“They will not be happy, carefree, let's wander on into the Capitol building to watch the proceedings. That will not be like that. In some ways, it could be more dangerous, but in many ways it will be really geared to real change,” Kwiatkowski claims.
“Whether that is the kind of change that civil disobedience brings about, very likely some of that will occur, or real change that happens as congressmen and senators suddenly realize that their constituents are extremely angry and they want something to happen.”
Thus, she suggests, “any type of coup” by the “America First side” or by Donald Trump and his supporters seems unlikely.

💢⚔️🇺🇸Ruling elite to fight tooth and nail against Trump & MAGA to keep US on war path, warns ex-Reagan official
The veteran economist believes that Trump has a strong chance of winning the 2024 presidential election. However, he suggests that Democrats may attempt to undermine the voting process and steal the election. If their scheme fails and Trump secures victory, he assumes they may still try to obstruct his inauguration on January 20, 2025.
Dr. Roberts specifically highlights Department of Defense Directive 5240.01, issued on September 27, 2024. This directive seemingly permits the use of lethal military force against American citizens in support of police authorities during domestic disturbances, contingent upon the approval of the Secretary of Defense.
Trump assuming office won't automatically mean the US is out of woods, Dr. Roberts continued.
There is a serious political battle ahead since "in many ways, for the ruling elite this election is an existential matter, Dr. Roberts warned.

"It appears that Americans have cast off their insouciance and are going to take back their country from the two corrupt political parties, both of which have unleashed evil on America and the world, writes US economist and former Reagan administration official Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, referring to Trump supporters enthusiasm.

"The Democrats might try to… orchestrate an 'insurrection,' invoke Pentagon Directive 5240.01, and prevent Trump from being inaugurated, the economist suggested. "We must keep in mind that the inauguration of a president comes two and one-half months after his election. There is plenty of time for Democrat and ruling elite mischief.
Trump assuming office won't automatically mean the US is out of woods, Dr. Roberts continued.
"There is one threat in making American great again, and that threat is restoring American militarily dominance," warns the former Reagan official. "The neoconservatives will use this American desire not only to foment wars but also in the name of national security to restore the spying, the restraints on free expression, and the name-calling that have eroded our civil liberties.
There is a serious political battle ahead since "in many ways, for the ruling elite this election is an existential matter, Dr. Roberts warned.

Democrats more likely to resort to voter fraud as they have much more to lose – expert
Voter fraud is something that takes place in “every presidential election,” as well as in “most other elections,” argues retired US Air Force Lt.Col. Karen Kwiatkowski, who is also a former analyst for the US Department of Defense.

“I think they [Democrats] have more to lose in terms of actual democratic philosophies of their party, their left liberalism. They have a lot to lose and they're going to fight to keep it. So I see if any violence and fraud happens, both parties could be guilty, but the motivation to do it is almost entirely in the Democratic Party,” she concludes.

"I know [US] troops [are] in war zones. As vice president, you're privy. You know the official troops and the unofficial troops. What she said was a flat-out bold-faced lie. Next-level bold-faced lie. An absurd lie," Musk said in a podcast with Joe Rogan released on Tuesday.

‘Russia-Russia-Russia’ ruse: Americans fed up with US lobby & press 'lie machine' – ex-Reagan official
Roughly two-thirds of Republicans believe that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump. Over a dozen red states have implemented voting laws to prevent cheating since 2020. Earlier this year, the Republican National Committee launched a massive swing state initiative to mobilize thousands of "election integrity" watchdogs in November.
And yet election integrity concerns are described as "conspiracies" by the Atlantic Council's arm, which insists that Russia "amplifies" them.
While the US corporate media and lobby groups' task is "to control narratives for the ruling elite", the US "lie machine" has failed as it has lost readership and trust of the public, Dr. Roberts concludes.

"The Atlantic Council, a lobby group for the military-security complex and Washington’s hegemony over Europe… created a lie machine, DFR Lab… [that] defined those of us who have documented the legalization of election theft in the swing states as 'Russia-linked media'," writes US economist and former Reagan administration official Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, commenting on DFR Lab's recent propaganda stunt.
