Election Countdown

I know that I have not used this blog in sometime. In fact, I have not blogged at all in over a year. I shut down the original Late Night Pundit blog which was hosted on its own server due to my lack of time to keep up with it.

Anyway, I hope to get back into blogging over the next several weeks but until then, here's my predictions for the 2006 mid-term elections. Take this with a grain of salt...

House: Dems pick up 37 seats to take control of the House of Representatives. This is probably a pretty mainstream pick. Most pundits seem to think somewhere between a 25 to 40 seat pick-up for the Democrats.

Senate: Democrats 51, Republicans 49. This prediction bucks the other pundits. Most seem to think that the Senate remains in Republican control - by either 1 seat or a tie with the VP vote keeping the Senate in Republican hands.

Anyway we'll see how well I did on Tuesday. Don't forget to vote!

---EDIT: Updated April 26, 2007
----> I should have posted this update after the election: I was pretty darn close. Underestimated the Dem pickup in the house, but correctly got the senate right (and very few people saw that one beforehand). Anyway...updating the blog and thought I'd gloat a bit. lol.
