Final Projections on The Presidential Race
Tuesday, November 4, 2008 at 18:38
FiveThirtyEight.com, whose reading of polls and other political information I hold in high regard, has just made its final call: Obama 353, McCain 185. They're in line with Enduring America (or we're in line with them) except for North Carolina, which they are tipping to Obama.
RealClearPolitics, which we've followed closely, is step-for-step with us on Obama 338, McCain 200, although they are being very cautious in calling states: they have no less than 10 as toss-ups.
Now the disturbing news: Karl Rove has also called the election as Obama 338-200. We are locked hand-in-hand with Karl Rove. Now's that's a scary start to the evening.

If you're right I just lost a cool two quid in an election night sweepstakes. if the landslide is as emphatic as you say, I'm way off the mark!
More importantly, I went for 311 in the Canuckistan Election Night Pool. D'oh!
I went 306... it's on Scott!
