I clicked your link, was asked to login, successfully logged in and was redirected to a page that didn't link to Senate predictions (it did to Governor predictions, and to 2004, and...) I was still able to make a prediction though, I just had to return to the forum and click the link again.

I was still able to make a prediction though, I just had to return to the forum and click the link again. I had the same problem. But it worked out for me too. I don't get one thing about the polls though. Some states seem to be listed as leans even though they have only one poll. And there are too few states overall I think? Title: Re: 2006 Senate Predictions Post by: Ben. on April 19, 2006, 11:44:43 AM I love it! Now I think about it I do need a new suite! Title: Re: 2006 Senate Predictions Post by: DarthKosh on April 19, 2006, 04:26:11 PM I wonder if there will be a house version.

I don't get one thing about the polls though. Some states seem to be listed as leans even though they have only one poll. And there are too few states overall I think? I'm pretty sure the default settings are based off the 2000 race. So a race which is expected to be a blowout this year may only be listed as a tossup or lean because it was fairly close in 2000. And a race which is expected to be real close this year may be listed as a lean or even strong depending in the 2000 results. Title: Re: 2006 Senate Predictions Post by: Gabu on April 21, 2006, 12:10:19 AM I wonder if there will be a house version. That would probably be much more difficult, as Dave wouldn't be able to easily use the mapmaking functionality on the site (given that you couldn't simply shade a state a single percentage). Plus, there are 435 races there. I don't think many people have the time to make 435 predictions.

Plus, there are 435 races there. I don't think many people have the time to make 435 predictions. The vast majority of those 435 are not seriously contested. I wonder if dave could set up maybe a 50 seat one. Title: Re: 2006 Senate Predictions Post by: ElectionAtlas on November 08, 2006, 11:03:41 PM The scores have been tabulated for the 2006 Senatorial Predictions. These are preliminary ans subject to change. No perfect scores - Top overall to thepolitic (I-CT) and snowguy716 (D-MN) each with a score of 57.
Title: Re: 2006 Senate Predictions Post by: True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자) on November 09, 2006, 12:00:21 AM Something's wrong with your score calaculator: It's showing my final prediction (https://uselectionatlas.org/PRED/SENATE/2006/pred.php?action=indpred&id=2266) as having a score of 0. I'm not certain about the percentages but I got all 33 states correct as to who won. It appears that only people who made a single prediction got their scores tabulated.
