Election Predictions
Here are my final predictions; I reserve the right to change these between now and Tuesday 9am EST, but I don't think I'll do so.
>2008 Election Contest: Pick Your President - Predict the winner of the 2008 presidential election.
Popular Vote: 52-48 Obama
My map is a lot more conservative than many out there, but I have a gut feeling about FL even though Obama is leading in the polls and most pundits' picks. I did switch over NV in Obama's favor from my last map.
Senate: Dems win in NH, CO, NM, AK, VA, OR, and NC for a total of 58 Senate seats; incumbent party holds all other seats.
Saxby Chambliss will barely get 50% of the vote to beat Jim Martin and avoid a runoff in GA.
House: This is a bit of a shot in the dark, but I'll say the Dems pick up 23 seats.
CA Proposition 8: No squeaks out a victory, protecting gay marriage in CA
