I’m pretty sure I’d be breaking some sort of Bloggers’ Code of Conduct if I didn’t post my predictions for tomorrow:
- President: Obama receives 303 electoral votes to Romney’s 235. I’m giving Romney Florida and North Carolina, but Florida could go blue if turnout is high and people don’t have to wait seven hours to vote.
- Minnesota Senator: Klobuchar had the good fortune to run against a Ron Paul acolyte who ran a completely amateurish campaign. I’d be surprised if Klobuchar’s margin is anything less than 25 points.
- Marriage Amendment: I want to believe Minnesota will be one of several states to repudiate efforts to deny equality to our friends, neighbors, and family. It will be close, but I’m predicting defeat.
- Voter I.D. Amendment: This will pass. My informal polling has found many people who have bought into the notion that voter fraud is a real problem. Expect lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the amendment soon afterwards.
- Minnesota Legislature: Hang on, I have to flip a coin. Okay, Democrats will re-take the Minnesota Senate.
Your thoughts?
