My prediction:

Obama - 303
Romney - 235



Here is a electoral map calculator, so you can share your prediction. I will bump this thread once a winner is declared, so we can see who was correct and who was wrong!

Good luck

NY goes to Romney when all downstate voting gets f'ed up. Upstate Republicans (where Sandy did not hit) finally get to control an election.

This seems to be the consensus:

* 538 STATISTICAL FORECAST: Obama 315.3, Romney 222.7
* VOTAMATIC STATISTICAL FORECAST: Obama 326, Romney 212
* SAM WANG STATISTICAL FORECAST: Obama 310, Romney 228
* DeSART/HOLBROOK STATISTICAL FORECAST: Obama 281, Romney 257

* REALCLEARPOLITICS POLLING AVERAGES: Obama 303, Romney 235
* POLLTRACKER POLLING AVERAGES: Obama 303, Romney 235
* POLLSTER POLLING AVERAGES: Obama 303, Romney 235

so the 303-235 seems to be the bet to go with

The only state I'm not sure about is Florida, but I gave it to Romney. If Florida goes to Obama, we are looking at 332 - 206.

my cousin lives in Florida and he said he waited in line for 3 hours to vote this weekend. Could go either way. If Obama takes Florida and Virginia, its basically just a game of waiting for the polls to close on the East Coast.

Popular vote 53-47 Romney with over 300 EVs. Should be hearing Oblama's concession speech by 11:00 p.m. EST.

Also, the GOP retakes the Senate and broadens their edge in the House.
