16 entries, which you are now allowed to peek at. 14 picked Obama, 2 picked McCain.
All of the entries picking Obama picked him to carry California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington and Wisconsin. That's 263 electoral votes.
Both entries picking McCain picked him to carry Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia West Virginia and Wyoming. Tha't's 245 electoral votes.
Every entrant picked the winner of the election to carry Pennsylvania.
No two lists are identical. Whew.
Were I awarding Audacity Points, WBTravis and Bob J would get them for picking Obama to carry Arizona.
Question for Timterino and Pea: Obama carries Idaho? What are you smoking?

Why the scoffing, nitrah? If they've chosen a bold entry to stand out in this contest, good luck to them.
I'll be content to wait in the Moratorium Lounge until the real results come in.

Because there's "bold" and then there's "loopy?"
Because I knew I could get Pea to respond?
