New Delhi, Nov 6 (PTI) Pollster Pradeep Gupta claimed on Wednesday that his Axis My America predicted the US election results spot on while many local pollsters missed the mark.

The Axis My India chief, who was considered to be the poster boy of exit polls in India, faced flak this year after his predictions for Lok Sabha polls and Haryana Assembly elections proved to be wide off the mark.

Gupta said his company has a "track record" of forecasting 70 out of 76 elections correctly.

"As counting enters the final lap, Axis My America's prediction of Donald Trump getting elected as the next US President is spot on for both popular vote and electoral votes. While many local pollsters missed the mark, Axis My America, which is a subsidiary of Axis My India, got it bang on," Gupta wrote in a post on X.
