Sunny Hostin is going against the grain in her predictions about the 2024 presidential election. The View co-host revealed this morning that she thinks Vice President Kamala Harris will sweep the election next month, despite many polls suggesting the race between her and former president Donald Trump is looking tight.
While discussing the Monday (Oct. 21) discussion between prominent Republican Liz Cheney, Maria Shriver and Harris, which took place at a panel event in Michigan, Hostin said she thinks Harris’ outreach to Republican women will pay off big time.
“I think it’s gonna be a blowout, actually,” Hostin predicted. “I don’t think it’s gonna be a close race. I think there are gonna be those Republicans that just vote for Harris, and I think the majority of them will be women.”
Praising Harris’ campaign strategy, she continued, “This is a masterful thing that they are doing. They are going to these critical swing states and they are speaking to those Nikki Haley voters. Remember, Wisconsin was decided for President Biden in 2020 by just 20,000 votes.
“But we also know that 53% of white women supported Trump in 2020. In contrast, 95% of Black women voted for Biden in 2020, along with 61% of Hispanic women,” she said. “So this, the largest group of likely voters, these women, have shifted away from Trump in these battleground states because of this issue of pro-life.”
Noting that, as a Catholic, she is pro-life, Hostin clarified that she’s doesn’t believe the government “should be allowed to tell other people what to do,” adding, “That’s not this country.”
The election is now just weeks away, and while Hostin is envisioning a dramatic win for Harris, current polls are indicating a closer race (but, as any loyal View fan knows, Whoopi Goldberg doesn’t trust polls!). As of Oct. 22, a Reuters/Ipsos poll reported Harris holding a 46% to 43% lead over Trump.
The View airs weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
