My Prediction of Election 2008

By DAVID ORTEZ on November 04, 2008

My prediction for this election is conservative and cynical at times. I do not expect a landslide as some other folks do but that is probably because I am wary. Nonetheless, here is my speculation of what will happen.

Electoral College

  1. Barack Obama – 352
  2. John McCain – 186

 

Popular Vote

  1. Barack Obama – 51%
  2. John McCain – 48%
  3. Other – 1%

 

Senate Results

  1. Democrats – 57 (+9)
  2. Republicans – 40 (-9)
  3. Independents - 2

 

House Results

  1. Democrats – 257 (+21)
  2. Republicans – 178 (-20)

 

It will all be over at 11 EST/10 pm CST and the surprise for the night Missouri will go Blue and thus not break their 100+ year streak of selecting the President. Depending on voter turnout, the South will dangerously lean close to the Left and Democrats will entertain it as a battleground worth fighting.
