O'Malley 53 - Ehrlich 47

Governor
Ehrlich-49
O'Malley-47
Boyd-2
Driscoll-1

allowing 1% for the Diebold margin of error.

why? Because Baltimore has a strong anti-O'Malley buzz going.

I have to much bias to do a "fair" prediction on the senate race, but my guess on African American turnout will be 22% with our campaign getting a surprisingly strong % of the vote in that category, and doing far better than the polls are showing overall.

I'm sure there will be lots of dust to settle-in court that is, when the polls don't go the MD Democrat's way.

*More and more democrats (like myself) are finding that O'Malley has not proven himself worthy to vote out a satisfactory governor. I really don't know which way it's going to swing, but I am pretty certain this is coming down to 1 or 2 percent.

Cardin- 49
Steele 45

*In the end, a little too late for Steele mobilizing the black vote in PG county.
Black turnout: 21%

And yes, for all you peope who don't live hear, Baltimore City is a much, much better place than it was 6 years ago.

The last 3 polls including one from the Balto Sun have showed the race for Gov a statistical dead heat. So it's anybody's guess. But since it's trending toward Ehrlich I'll put my money on him, 52 to 48. Cardin beats Steel 53 to 47. So it's a split decision, the fairest and right result.

When the Baltimore Sun runs a headling just days before the election that the "Governor's Race Is a Tossup" you know that things are looking pretty bleak at O'Malley headquarters. Ehrlich wins this 51 to 49, which is pretty much a romp all things considered this election year in blue state Maryland. O'Malley's people ran an absolutely horrible campaign, just like KKT last time. Unreal.

We can always count on CHE to make us laugh with his off topic rants from the land of the moonbat.

And a special thanks to CHE for making us laugh aloud again with his off-topic rants from the land of the moonbat (the only place they listen to a fool like Michael Moore).

O'Malley wins by 3 points.
Cardin wins by 6 points.

Gee, we could have cut these comments off after the first guy.

Rufus and BG must be in tears today. The Republican Party suffered devastating losses throughout Maryland last night.

The Republican Party is effectively irrelevant in Maryland for the next 4 years.

As predicted, the MD Republicans lost at least one Senate seat, and between 8-10 seats in the House.

Looks like John, our first poster, is the only one who came close.

If you want to send me your address, maybe I can scrounge up a souvenir (could be time for a Maryland Moment T-shirt?)

What's that smell? Oh yeah, it's the sweet, sweet smell of victory.

Oh, and I should also add that with the Dem pick ups in the both state houses, Maryland - to the disappointment, I'm sure, of Rufus, BG, and MK - just got more blue.

HBO's documentary "Hacking Democracy" should be viewed by all voters. We will never have election integrity as long as these voting systems are counting our votes. You can go to google video and watch it now.
