Election Update 2: My Picks For U.S. House and Senate
My below picks for winning and the states has its background in This Story.
Eastern Time Zone:
Connecticut: Repubs hold all seats or maybe give up 1
Florida: Foley vacancy held by Repub candidate
Indiana: Repubs hold
Kentucky: Repubs hold, maybe give up 1
New Hampshire: Repubs hold
New Jersey: Repubs hold
New York: Repubs hold, maybe give up 1 to Dems
North Carolina: Repubs hold
Ohio: Repubs hold
Pennsylvania: Repubs hold House, Dems may pick up 1 Senate
Virginia: Repubs hold
Central Time Zone:
Illinois: Repubs hold
Iowa: Repubs hold
Minnesota: Mark Kennedy loses to Amy Klobuchar so Dems get 1 Senate Seat here. Republican Michele Bachman wins Congressinal seat beating Democrat Patty Wetterling.
Texas: Repubs hold
Wisconsin: Repubs hold
Mountain and Pacific Time Zone:
Arizona Jim Kolbe's seat: Toss Up
I have no selections in the Mountain and Pacific Time Zones.
I hate to say it, but if by 10PM-1AM Central Time tonight - when Eastern State results are close to their final tallies and Midwest States are close to wrapping it up - the Dems haven't proven their momentum and aren't winning, I don't see them picking up their hoped-for majorities in the Western States.
Look, my ratio of prediction/accuracy is laughable. If you want to make easy money on a sporting event, ask me who I think will win, and then bet the opposite.
