To shove the AllSpark into Optimus Prime’s chest? To perform the vital task of compiling everyone’s Senate predictions into one combined ranking? May the hardy among you fire up your spreadsheets and post the results in comments!
I figured it by how many times a certain seat was mentioned rather than how many times a seat was placed either 1, 2, 3 etc. If some seats were tied, then I looked to see where they appeared on the list.
In any case, this is what I got as a composite:
Colorado
New Hampshire
Virginia
Minnesota
Maine
Oregon
Louisiana
North Carolina
South Dakota
Nebraska
New Mexico
Kentucky
Texas
Oklahoma
Alaska
New Jersey
Alabama
…how about someone do a power ranking, giving 10 points for each #1, 9 points for # 2, so on down to 1 points for #10, and add up the total points? More simply, you could play the game like golf, so the lowest total wins, but that value gets distorted by the fact that everyone's list of 10 has a slightly different set.
That was using the 16 points for first, 15 points for 2nd and so on method. Obviously all the 0s didn't get any votes anywhere across the board.
