Make them by noon tomorrow.

I was originally going to say Tedisco by 5.24%, but it seems like his campaign is in panic even though there has been more money funneling into the race for his candidacy.  With Gillibrand's GOTV robocalls and Murphy's flawless campaign etcetera etcetera, I might have have to give this to Murphy by the same amount.  The only reason I do this is because I'm oddly suspecting that, unlike most of America, NY-20 always-voters might not break that hard for the GOP.  Especially with the GOP and third parties going all-out anti-businessman in their messaging, which is a rather confusing message given the source.


So, yeah, Murphy by 5.24% although it could easily be Tedisco by that same amount or more.  Meh, it's more fun to predict something optimistic anyway.

We'll see.

The problem with the GOP Always Voters thesis is that, in areas like this one, a large number of them has voted Democratic in 2006 and 2008.

Lunar went with Murphy by 5.24? Okay, I'll say 5.25. Grin

Not a Tedisco prediction yet?  He has a very good chance at winning.

I have no clue - really.  Except I expect it to be close (+/-5%).

I've given up on trying to make predictions for special elections, honestly.  It's too difficult.

I'm still confident, despite the small window.

My Prediction

Tedisco 50%
Murphy 50%

I say this for several reasons. First I am just too unsure to commit to either one of them. Second I beleive this will be extremely close. Thirdly I think it would be absolutely hilarious to have a second Minnesota in the less then a year.
