Polls close in less than an hour in select locations, so let’s hear some predictions! Can Bill McCollum beat free-spending Rick Scott by virtue of being less unlikeable in the Florida governor’s race? Can Jeff Greene sail his vomit-covered yacht through the rapidly closing window in the Florida Senate race? Can J.D. Hayworth help you get free government grant money?
Closing times tonight:
• Florida: 7 pm ET (except: 7 pm CT/8 pm ET in the Panhandle)
• Vermont: 7 pm ET
• Oklahoma: 7 pm CT/8 pm ET
• Arizona: 7 pm MST/10 pm ET
• Alaska: 8 pm local/midnight ET (except: 8 pm local/1 am ET in the Aleutians)
FL-Gov: McCollum 53%, Scott 47%
FL-Sen: Meek 58%, Greene 32%, Other 10%
FL-2: Boyd 63%, Lawson 37%
FL-8: Webster wins by at least 5%.
FL-24: Miller wins.
AZ-Sen: McCain 72%, Hayworth 28%.
AZ-3: Vernon Parker wins.
AZ-5: Schweikert wins.
AZ-8: Kelly wins
VT-Gov: Markowitz wins.
However, these predictions are for only races I care about:
FL-GOP-Gubby: I wish a different result but Scott peaked too early and got exposed for the crook he is, so:
McCollum- 55%
Scott – 45%
FL-Dem-Senny: Ditto GOP-Gubby but Greene is an even slimer slime ball than Scott and worse, he ran a shitty campaign anyway even though he could have buried Meek since the latter was completely unknown.
Meek – 60%
Greene – 40%
AZ-GOP-Senny: Hayworth, someone even more distasteful than Scott and Greene combined, except he is a huckstering loudmouth bitchass, will go down in flames as McCain completely annihilates him with militant force, you kind feel sorry for the Hayworth da Slim-Fast Huckster (not).
McCain: 65%
Hayworth: 35%
Other AZ races: Quayle comes third, and I can’t remeber who else is running in the rest of the races.
Oh, last one:
AL-GOP-Senny: Palm face Palin has less influence in Alaska than even she or the media realizes. Murkowski bitchslapps Miller back to the Ice Age.
Murkowski-70%
Miller-30%
i’m saying this disclaimer once: I had a dubie internship, that ended because school is starting.
VT-GOV
Shumlin 32%
FL-Gov
MC 52%
Meek 55%
AZ mccain 58%
AK Murkowski 67%
I should not even try but I will anyway. I am going to say McCain wins by a somewhat close margin of 57-43. I am going to say Glassman loses to what’s his name? I am going to say that Murkowski wins by a margin of 52-48. Against wisdom but be bold or go home. Florida, Greene pulls an upset and wins by a couple of points. McCollum survives by a small 51-49 margin. I think the LG loses the AG race if that makes since and I think Boyd wins by a 60-40 margin. I am also going to say Quayle loses, I know little about the race so I am just making the ever bold prediction that he goes down. I am not about to shed a tear for the privileged sob either. To Vermont, I will say the SoS but I am just guessing.
Is like being the most smartest model.
I suck at predictions when I know little about the state(s) involved. But what the hell:
FL-Gov:
The RentBoy AG: 55%
Evil Rich Dude: 45%
FL-Sen:
Meek: 48%
Greene: 38%
Ferre: 7%
Others: 7%
AK-Sen:
Murkowski: 64%
Miller: 36%
AZ-Sen:
Walnuts! – 62%
Just Plain Nuts – 38%
FL-Dem Primary
Boyd: 60%
Lawson: 40%
I’m kinda meh on all the other races, so I’ll just leave it there.
Scott 51
Mccollum 49.
Yeah, that’s right. I went there.
Meek 55
Greene 38
The other one 7
but I have company coming over soon so I won’t be checking in till fairly late. Hopefully there will still be some action then.
I don’t really feel well informed enough to make predictions so I will just say that tonight will be great news for John McCain. Also because it would result in great lulz I will predict a Susan Bitter Smith victory in AZ-05 (R), even though that’s impossible because of the pure amount of win it would be made out of.
Alaska: Parnell, Berkowitz, Murkowski, McAdams
Arizona: McCain, Glassman, Gosar, Moak, Ward, Paton
Florida: McCollum, Meek, Boyd/Southerland, O’Donoghue, Moise, Miller
Oklahoma: Thompson, Lankford
Vermont: Markowitz
Bush 49%
Gore 49%
jaw strength.
Take a look at that dude sometime, especially from the impeachment era. He looks like he could just, like, bite the cover off a baseball.
Not predicting without an incentive.
Never do anything you’re good at for free. Good thing I’m a lousy lay.
… for results in Florida. IIRC they don’t release any results until all the polls in the State have closed.
Why would anyone vote for him? He’s a socialist and former Buchanan supporter. That’s just weird.
Rubio, Meek in Florida
McCain in Arizona (Seeing Hayworth would call for celebratory gunfire if I lived in some distant land)
Murkowski will lay the smack down and show Wasilla’s Village Idiot whose boss.
From the Primary preview thread:
PRedictions
With all the super crowded house primaries, I will not do all house races.
AZ-Sen:
McCain: 64
Hayworth: 30
Deakin: 6
AZ-03
Moak
Parker
Crump
Gorman
Quayle
the rest
I guess the winner wins with around 20%, or less.
AZ-08
Kelly: 54
Paton: 45
Fl-Gov:
Scott: 51
McCollum: 49
Scott with late momentum, also hoping to put the GOPVoter curse on him.
Fl-Sen
Meek: 54
Greene: 37
Ferre: 6
other: 3
Fl-02
Boyd: 60
Lawson: 40
Hoping the GOPVoter curse strikes twice in FL!
Fl-05
I think Nugent faces some backlash for being the handpicked candidate.
Nugent: 55
Sager: 45
Probably wrong.
