In Hatboro, Pennsylvania, Lochel’s Bakery has a pastry that only comes around every four years.

Known as political cookies, these round sugary pieces of dough are being bought at an extraordinary rate. Some people buy blue ones, some red.

Lochel’s political cookies have predicted the outcome of the past three presidential elections.

Whichever candidate gets the most cookie sales has won the election.

This year, Lochel’s says Trump is leading Biden 5 to 1 in cookie sales.

They’re planning on making a celebratory cookie for whoever wins the election.
