The most recent “Power Rankings” update for the 2024 presidential election, which was disclosed by Fox News anchor Bill Hemmer, reportedly placed Kamala Harris in the lead for the first time this cycle.

“Going to show you now our power rankings are about to be revealed for the first time. We mentioned a moment ago that there are changes. All right. Let’s put it into motion. Okay. We believe right now that North Carolina and Georgia have had a shift. They’ve had some movements own or direct your attention down to the southeastern corner of the country. Georgia, North Carolina are considered ‘toss-ups,’” Hemmer said.

“So we will now put them in the same category that we had for other states for some time. Nevada and Arizona, no change. Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, no change at the moment. We’ve got Michigan ‘lean Democrat’ or we should say yes. Right here. Right here is ‘lean Democrat’ and the blue on the far side of the screen. So watch these states as they hit both of them. Come on, Mr. Magic. Don’t fail me now. Okay, We’re going to something super ugly. Okay.” he continued.

“Well, here’s what I wanted to show you. Look at that. Look at that…These are the states to focus on right now. Okay. These are the area that we are going to watch, 78 electoral votes among six different states and how they break, I would say Pennsylvania, 19 electoral votes is the biggest match in this list here. But don’t overlook Georgia, 16 electoral votes, North Carolina, 16 electoral votes taken together is 32. Right.” Hemmer added.

“Okay. So they matter. They matter in a significant way. In a moment, I’ll show you just how much going back to 2020. Our forecast at the moment has Kamala Harris in the lead. We’ve got her 241. We got Trump at 219. You need 270 to win. That’s the magic number in the end. Okay. And that’s our power rankings as of now.” he concluded.

The change in the Fox News power rankings come only days after Trump’s Tuesday night debate with Vice-President Kamala Harris.
