Henry Olsen
Henry Olsen is a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, a Washington Post opinion columnist, and one of the most accurate election forecasters of the past two decades. He called the 2024 presidential race for Donald Trump, including a popular-vote win, while most analysts hedged. A lawyer by training and a Reagan scholar by obsession, Olsen studies the working-class voters that conventional polling tends to miss, and he hosts the weekly podcast 'Beyond the Polls.'
