Probably mathematically impossible. But I'd rather get the pessimism in early.

Repeating:

US election PREDICTOR

1) the number of electoral college votes Democrats will get, note 270 is the winning line, 269 is a tie, which is possible.

2) which party will win the Senate (either Democrat or Republican)

3) which party will the the House (either Democrat or Republican)

Do the prediction like this: 312 D D

(So this example would be Democrats to win the electoral college, they win the Senate and they win the house).

My prediction:

276 R D

(So I'm predicting a narrow Harris win, with the Republicans winning the Senate and Dems with the House).

Winner is the first number, second and third are used as tiebreakers. So if you get equal with someone else, we move to the Senate predictor. If both are the same on the Senate, we move to the house. EG if person a went 312 R D and person b went 312 D R and the republicans won both houses, then person a would win, as the first tie breaker is the senate. Geddit?

Haha, I was pulling your leg a little. I'd have gone for sweepestake, but your nomenclature is acceptable!

And are you going to predict a range? I will put it down for 1), but for obvious reasons I will not accept D to R for 2 and 3!!

No point because the range is from Harris winning all swing states to Trump winning all swing states!

About This Thread

Maintained by Chrisull
Name-calling will be called out, and Ad hominem will be frowned upon. :-) And whatabout-ery sits somewhere above responding to tone and below contradiction.

*** NEW US election PREDICTOR *** Predict:

1) Number of electoral college votes Democrats get
2) Party to win the Senate (Democrat or Republican)
3) Party to win the House (Democrat or Republican)

Do the prediction like this: 312 D D - you win if you get the first number right and no-one else does.

Johnny Blaze 360 R D
Bob 312 D D
EarlyRiser 306 R D
LindsD 298 R D
Chrisull 276 R D
Larkim 268 R R
PaulCook 0 R R
