The kids in America have spoken, and they’ve chosen Kamala Harris as the winner of the 2024 presidential election. Nickelodeon’s seasonal “Kids Pick the President” poll ended with the Democratic nominee securing 52% of the vote compared to Republican nominee Donald Trump’s 48%.

Over 32,000 individuals altogether cast their virtual vote, which was open from Oct. 3-23. Though Nickelodeon emphasized that its “Kids’ Vote” is “an informal non-scientific poll, meant for entertainment purposes only,” the election-time event has a fairly strong track record. The mock election has taken place every election year since 1988. Since that time, the poll has accurately predicted the winner of the U.S.
