Think you've got a handle on what's going to happen Tuesday? Democratic polling firm Anzalone Liszt wants you to prove it.

The Alabama-based group is running an internet pool, along with D.C.-based Stratalys, giving participants the chance to pick winners in 18 Senate races, 23 House races and 27 governorships.

More inspiration: First prize is $1,000.

I bet someone on this board can win this!
