The Cookie Poll
By Glenn Beck
Can cookies really predict the next president? According to Busken Bakery, they are more accurate than you might think.
Busken Bakery, has been using cookies to predict the winner of presidential elections since Regan beat Mondale in 1984, and has only been wrong once. Their method is simple: they sell cookies with the faces of both candidates and tally the sales of each. Whoever sells the most cookies is predicted to win. The simplicity of this method is its strength, and the only time it was wrong was the 2020 election. Currently, President Trump is far outstripping VP Harris, selling 23,477 cookies compared to her 8,781 cookies (as of 8/15). Busken posts daily updates on their Instagram, here.
Busken isn't the only bakery to make presidential predictions. Lochel's Bakery in the critical swing state of Pennsylvania has gained popularity recently. Lochel's has correctly predicted three of the last four elections by selling red and blue cookies printed with the names of the candidates. The current count for Lochel's is 28,212 for Trump and 2,097 for Harris. Again, Lochel's posts daily updates on their Instagram, here.
According to the cookies, this election is looking pretty sweet for President Trump!

Let’s not assume they got it “wrong” in 2020, hm?
The simplicity of this method is its strength, and the only time it was wrong was the 2020 election. — they were actually right in 2020, but it was stolen by fake ballots, corrupt electronic voting machines, and a water leak.
