National Presidential Election contest thread
Pick the final electoral college count of the winning candidate.
You do not have to pick the winning candidate - only the electoral college vote count that candidate acquires. Contest closes one week from today at 6:30pm (one week before the election). There are 538 electoral votes. Thus your number must be a number between 270 (required to win) and 538. No duplicate numbers - first come, first serve. Winning number is closest to actual winning number without going over. In case of ties, winner will be closest number under, with correct candidate chosen.

There is no way either one can win without winning the state of Ohio.
If the poll numbers right now can be trusted -- the winner of this election will probably be decided by the weather in Cleveland on election day. Obama defeated McCain by 206,000 votes in Ohio in 2008. Obama was +246,000 votes over McCain in Cuyahoga County. He was minus 40,000 to McCain in the state of Ohio with Cuyahoga County excluded. In Ohio's District 11 (East Cleveland) -- Obama won almost 90% of the vote. If the polls are accurate -- the state of Ohio will be won by the voter turnout in the big population areas around Cleveland. If the weather is miserable in Cleveland on election day -- Obama will not get a monster turnout there like he did last year. Romney wins. If the weather is clear in Cleveland on election day -- Obama will defeat Romney in Ohio and win the state and re-election. Bottom line...if the polls are trusted and don't change... the weather in and around Cleveland on election day will be a deciding factor as to who wins the state of Ohio. And whoever wins Ohio, obviously wins the Presidency.
