Election Predictions

| 2 Comments
Just for fun -

What do you think the electoral college split will be?

What do you think will be the final split in the Senate?

I predict Obama will win 290- 248.  I believe Obama will win the swing states Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Nevada, Colorado, Wisconsin and Iowa.  I believe Romney will win Florida, Virginia, and North Carolina.

I predict the Senate will split to the Democrats 53-47.  I believe Democrats will win the close Senate races in Connecticut, Indiana, Massachusetts, Missouri, Montana, Virginia, and Wisconsin.  Republicans will take the toss ups in Arizona, Nevada, and North Dakota.

I used the polling data and averages at www.realclearpolitics.com and the "make your own map" at www.270towin.com.

I'd like to hear your predictions, as well!

From your keyboard to the Electoral College's ears, my dear!

Then we need to get rid of the EC.

I like Nate Silver's 538 blog in the New York Times. He models his election results thru a modeling system of national and state polls. He also includes Intrade.com in his model.

He currently has the President at a 72% chance of victory.
