South American Ascendancy in North America
Historically, when the FIFA World Cup has been hosted in the CONCACAF region (North America), the tournament has been won by a CONMEBOL nation. With Argentina (simulated reigning champion) and Brazil consistently fielding world-class teams, the 'Yes' majority is based on this historical precedent and the continued strength of those national squads. However, the $35\%$ 'No' recognizes that powerful European teams like Spain and France are currently strong favorites and may break this trend.
