2016 Political Party Expectations
Ugh! Please let me try this again ...
I have never posted a poll before, but since no else has posted something similar, then I thought that this would be a good time to do so. If you have any predictions as to how the upcoming national election will shake out, then please vote in this poll as you see fit. Thanks much. |

I voted for Repulicans taking Senate and House, but there is a small chance Democrats will take the Senate.

I voted for Clinton as president and a Democratic majority in the Senate. I include the two independents - Angus King and Bernie Sanders - among that majority, as they caucus with the Democrats. Or does Bernie now officially count as a Democratic senator?
Specifically, I think it will be 50/50, so Kaine is the tie-breaking vote. |

The prediction markets agree with this poll's current results: Clinton, Dem Senate, Rep House.
I hope it is true so we can get a reasonable Supreme Court after all these years of conservative destruction. IXP |

Late season polls are sweet. Not a whole lot of believers in a Trump win any longer, eh?

It's hard to make predictions on contests where cheating is involved.
