What % of the popular vote will the winner capture? How many electoral votes will the winner take? Feel free to offer up any other predictions you may have. firstdown 10-30-2008, 09:52 AM Isn't this a thread we should have on Tuesday? MTK 10-30-2008, 10:00 AM You would rather predict the outcome on the day of the election? That's like having a Redskins prediction thread on gameday. saden1 10-30-2008, 10:47 AM My friend has already payed out a $20 bet that Obama would win Washington State by 8 points. It's going to be either close or a blow out. Either way, I would bet Obama comes out on top. Obama EV: 300 PV: 51% mredskins 10-30-2008, 11:06 AM Obama wins by a land slide. Once the guy gets in office he should be scard I think a lot of people are planning to kill this guy. IT is scary! I am voting for him and a change! This country needs both really bad. dmek25 10-30-2008, 11:17 AM obama- 290 obama- 50% MTK 10-30-2008, 11:23 AM Obama leads up about 6-7 points right now and I think that's where the popular vote will end up, though I wouldn't be surprised if he takes it by closer to 10 or more. If a record turnout of voters does indeed happen, that can only favor Obama. People aren't going to come out in record numbers to vote for the same old. Daseal 10-30-2008, 11:41 AM Obama wins. 56% of the popular vote +/- 3 points! saden1 10-30-2008, 11:45 AM Those "air quotes" on the "health of the mother" are going "hurt (http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1008/15074.html)." 70Chip 10-30-2008, 01:01 PM Obama 51% McCain 48% Obama @ 286 McCain @ 255 I further predict that the news on all fronts, (Iraq, Afghanistan, the economy, various domestic "crises") will suddenly take a turn for the better after Tuesday. The news broadcasts will re-discover everything that is good about America quite literally overnight. I also predict that many male Obama supporters will be chagrinned on election night when they are unable to parlay hours of envelope stuffing into action with the cute female Obama supporters. Things will pretty much stay the same for the vast majority of us. This forum will return to late night discussions about television shows, hot supermodels, monkeys that throw their own crap, and the occasional bleg for advice on car-buying, computer troubleshooting, and interior decorating. Oh, and Keith Olbermann's ratings will start dying a long, slow death as the the political fad dies and young people flip to "Gossip Girl" and "So You Want to be an Albino Stripper".
