President Bush will be re-elected with 346 Electoral Votes and 56.5% of the popular vote. Kerry will get 192 EV. Bush will get MN, IA, WI, OH, PA, and the shocker: NJ. IL and MI will remain in Kerry’s column; MI’s union vote is way too strong and IL has the Daley Machine in Cook County.
Now the Ultimate would be Kerry getting just MA (his “home” state) and DC; everything else to Bush (523-15). But the above scenario is much more realistic.
The Republicans will gain 4 seats in the Senate and 8 seats in the House.
So there. All we do now...is wait.
