“Donald Trump’s campaign is getting some dough-lightful news out of Ohio. A beloved Cincinnati bakery, whose ‘cookie poll’ has accurately predicted every election outcome but one since 1984, currently has the former president and Republican nominee leading Democrat Kamala Harris in its unscientific survey. Trump notched about 54% support (2,953 cookies) to Harris’[s] 39% (2,134 cookies), with an ‘independent’ smiley-face cookie scoring 7% (397 cookies), per the latest tally shared with The Post by Busken Bakery. The cookie poll will remain open until election day on Nov. 5, so the tallies reflect the result of ‘early voting’ by those with a sweet tooth. ‘We like to joke and say [customers] can stuff the ballot box,’ bakery president and CEO Dan Busken told The Post.” (09/23/24)
