I was right about Minnesota!!

[English]

I told you Minnesota would stay Democrat!

[Gustaf]

I thought so too...one of the few things I got right in this election.

[??????????]

And I told you that Bush would clearly win Florida.

You get one out of 50 right and you think you are a genius.

He nailed DC, too

[Erc]

Me too


Come to think of it, the two states that I got wrong (NH & WI) were the two closest states (by percentage) in the election.  Not bad, that.

[Gustaf]

I missed a lot of states b/c I anticipated a bigger victory for Bush. I thought he'd win the states he won +WI, NH, PA and one of the ME CDs.

So I erred on the right side at least...I predicted the PV more or less correctly, I just thought that more states would swing b/c of that. Which is actually a lot worse than if I had simply thought the national number would be different.

Had I gone with my gut, I'd only have got Wisconsin wrong. As it is, I got Ohio and ME-2 wrong. Last time I mess around with dice...

[English]

I was fooled by Oregon & Wisconsin which I initially thought would go Rep. I was correct about most of the rest apart from Ohio and Missouri!

Had I gone with my gut, I'd only have got Wisconsin wrong.

Had I gone with my dumb little bit of maths, I'd only have got Wisconsin wrong.
But here I go, didn't want to predict a Bush win, flip the three closest states to Kerry (Wisconsin was only the fourth closest one!) - and they turn out Bush's three closest states. Grumble.

Never doubted it. I'm pretty pleased Wisconsin stayed with them. I was a bit disappointed with Iowa though.
