Yiwu, a city known worldwide for its small commodities, has a unique 'Election Law'—predicting election outcomes by observing the order volume of products related to U.S. elections. Recently, the surge in orders for promotional materials related to Comrade Jianguo in Yiwu factories has led people to speculate: Is Trump really making a comeback to the White House?
The origin of Yiwu's 'Election Law':
As the world's largest small commodity distribution center, Yiwu has a vast production chain and sales network. Due to the diversity and low prices of its products, it has numerous customers globally, including the United States.
Before each U.S. election, Yiwu sees a surge of products related to candidates, such as T-shirts, hats, stickers, and flags. The order volume of these products is viewed by many as a barometer for predicting election outcomes.
Are Trump’s supporters 'gearing up'?
Recently, in Yiwu factories, the order volume for promotional materials related to Comrade Jianguo has noticeably increased, seemingly supporting the idea that Trump’s supporters are 'gearing up' for a big push.
RCP polling data: What are Trump's chances?
In addition to Yiwu's order volume, RCP (RealClearPolitics) polling data also shows Trump leading in seven swing states. This seems to add weight to Trump's chances of victory.
The reliability of Yiwu's 'Election Law':
The reliability of Yiwu's 'Election Law' has always been a topic of debate. Some believe that order volume only reflects the preferences of a certain demographic and cannot represent the will of the entire American populace, nor can it accurately predict election outcomes.
The truth still needs the ballots to speak:
Regardless of Yiwu's order volume, the ultimate decision on the U.S. election outcome still lies with the ballots. Whoever has more votes will become the next President of the United States.
Yiwu's 'Election Law':
Yiwu's 'Election Law' may just be some interesting rumors, but it also reflects people's attention and speculation regarding the U.S. elections. Regardless of the final outcome, this vibrant little city of Yiwu will continue to witness major global events.
Furthermore, we should view Yiwu's 'Election Law' rationally. It is merely a prediction based on product order volume and is not a scientifically accurate forecasting method. The final election results will still need to be determined by the voting of the American people.
