    That's about right but I think Hillary will be over 300 votes

    If that were black and white I'd say that's Wally from "Leave it to Beaver" (a show from a time long ago when America was half sane).

    McGruff, Jimmy, I'd say you guys are pretty close. We shall see (and then be glad it's done with!)

    I agree with BS here. I'll say >290 votes but no more than 310. Lot still up in the air.

    Really?? Obama over Romney in 2012 was around 3 points and it was an electoral landslide. If any candidate gets 50% of the vote (not going to happen), we're looking at a Mondale-esque defeat.
