Shapiro Predicts…

by Stuart Shapiro

Looking into my crystal ball.

President Obama 303 Electoral Votes (including Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa, NH, Virginia, and Colorado)

Governor Romney 235 EV (including Florida and North Carolina) (for a fun site to play with the outcomes see here)

Democrats retain control of the Senate with 53 seats losing seats in Nebraska, North Dakota, and Montana but winning them in Massachusetts and Indiana (and Angus King winning in Maine).

Republicans retain control of the House, losing about 10 seats.

Everyone learns how to spell sequestration in the month of December.

Remember to vote!
