The Redskins Rule is a spurious relationship in which the results of National Football League (NFL) games correlated strongly with the results of subsequent United States presidential elections. Briefly stated, there was a strong correlation between the outcome of the last home game for the Washington Commanders (known as the Washington Redskins from 1933 to 2020) prior to the U.S. presidential election and the outcome of the election: when Washington won, the party of the incumbent president retained the presidency; when Washington lost, the opposition party won. This coincidence was noted by many sports and political commentators, used as a bellwether to predict the results of elections, and held true in every election from 1940 through 2000.

En resumen, hay una alta correlación entre el resultado de un partido de fútbol americano de los Washington Redskins y las Elecciones presidenciales en Estados Unidos: cuando los Redskins ganan, el partido político que esté en ese momento en la Casa Blanca, gana la elección presidencial. Esta coincidencia ha sido hecha notar por muchos comentaristas deportivos y políticos.​​ (es)
