Wild Wild West: Schweitzer beats Thune

Former Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer and New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand have defeated South Dakota Senator John Thune and Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal in one of the closest elections in US history. At the time the race was called, the popular vote was essentially tied at 48.9 percent each. It should be noted that many votes were still being counted and our model predicts that Schweitzer will win the popular vote 49.5 to 48.5 percent. The electoral college was similarly close, with Schweitzer achieving a 275-263 win.

The final state to be called was Iowa, which supplanted Ohio as the bellwether state of the presidential election, contrary to popular belief. The election saw Thune make significant inroads to Obama's 2008-2012 coalition, winning swing states such as Ohio, Virginia, and Florida. However, Thune had significant trouble picking up western states, losing in Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, and Schweitzer's home state of Montana. Senator Thune conceded the election at 2 AM EST, and is not expected challenge the results; the Schweitzer states were all won by at least 2 percent (the closest was Iowa at 2.2 percent) and are thus ineligible for a recount. Conversely, Schweitzer came within a percentage point in Ohio and Virginia.

MRS. PRESIDENT
Clinton's Historic Victory


(Pretty much what the NY Post had in 2008 after Obama won, but minus an S and name change)


I've always thought it would be Madam President.
