Very few observers expect Kamala Harris to lose the state of New York in the 2024 Presidential Election. She could however win New York by a historically small margin.

This questions resolves YES if Kamala Harris's fraction of total votes is at least 0.2 larger than Donald Trump's fraction of total votes.

For example, if Harris receives 56%, Trump receives 36%, and third parties/write-ins receive 8%, this question resolves YES.

Ballots that do not include any vote for President are not counted.

This question will resolve on election night if the initial count answers the question with mathematical certainty. If the initial count finds a margin between 19-21%, this question will be extended until the results are certified by New York State.

Extended by one day as an 20-point win isn't yet mathematically impossible and I do have to sleep. I'll resolve first thing in the morning US Eastern time if a 20-point win is impossible.

The latest Siena poll of New York State has Kamala Harris leading by just 12 points in a 6-way race, and 13 points in a 2-way race. https://scri.siena.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/SNY0924-Crosstabs.pdf

Former President Trump is rallying in Suffolk County, long Island tomorrow. He had announced he will "get SALT back", suggesting he may repeal the State and Local Tax Deduction cap that he signed into law in 2017. This deduction is of considerable importance to voters in the NYC suburbs.

Note: I corrected the title from "over 20%" to "at least 20%", to consistently reflect the resolution of this question if Harris wins exactly 20% more of the total votes than Trump.

To motivate some "NO" trades: Siena College, one of the highest quality pollsters in the U.S., polls New York State during presidential election years. In late July, the 2-way margin was D+14 and the 6-way margin was D+12. Source: https://scri.siena.edu/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/SNY0724-Crosstabs.pdf

That's +12 on the six way, right?

Derp yes thank you
