Winner

Electoral Vote Count

Who Controls the House

Who Controls the Senate

One Major Upset

The winner gets bragging rights.


Robert A. Hahn, Pundit Emeritus

The secret of the Universe is not 42. It is 37: Donald Trump wins 37 states. Joe Biden wins 37% of the popular vote.

  • Winner: Donald J. Trump
  • Electoral Vote Count: 340 to 197
  • House: Dems
  • Senate: Reps
  • Upset: Martha McSally (R-AZ)

Susie Moore, Senior Copy Editor

  • Winner: Donald J. Trump
  • Electoral Vote Count: 295 to 243
  • House: Dems
  • Senate: Reps
  • Upset: John James (R-MI)

Scott Hounsell, Polling Nerd

This is my quasi-wishcasting guess.  Trump wins MN just so he can brag he did something Reagan couldn’t.

  • Winner: Donald J. Trump
  • Electoral Vote Count: 295 -243
  • House: Dems (Republicans pick up a couple of seats)
  • Senate: Reps 53-47 (After GA Runoff in January)
  • Upset:  Jason Lewis (R-MN)

Brad Slager – Felonious Work Opportunity Tax Reduction Hire

  • Winner: President Trump
  • EV Count: 281 – 257
  • House: DEMS Retain, GOP makes gains
  • Senate: GOP
  • Upset: Candidate – John James, MI / State – Minn. going to Trump
  • Epilogue – One unforeseen influence apart from the platforms is how many voters are motivated against the media this time around. Less the effect of Trump’s ”Fake News” claims it is more a reaction to the growing hostility coming from the news industry, and seen on social media from journalists.

Dan Spencer, Senior Contributing Editor

  • Winner: Donald J. Trump
  • Electoral Vote Count: 300 – 238
  • House:  Dems
  • Senate: Reps
  • Upset: Susan Collins (R-ME)

Shipwreckedcrew, Contributor Legal Affairs Pundit

  • Winner:  Donald J. Trump
  • Electoral Vote Count: 305 — 233
  • House:  GOP (less than 5 seat advantage)
  • Senate:  GOP (+2 net)
  • Upset: James (MI)

Mike Ford: The man, the myth, the legend, who fed an entire Infantry Division with one box of C-Rations and carried away 5 Fast Sea Lift Ships full of leftovers says:

Trump Wins and does so before Pennsylvania finishes counting “found ballots,” thus making leftists, their election lawyers, and corrupt judges irrelevant. Post-election, Mike can be found backstroking through a bottle of Alabama small batch bourbon.

 


Nick Arama, Wandering Wastrel

  • Winner: Donald J. Trump
  • Electoral Vote Count: 308 – 230
  • House:  Dems
  • Senate: Reps
  • Upset: Susan Collins (R-ME), John James (R-MI), Trump tails help pull some Senators who were endangered
    across the line.

Jennifer Oliver O’Connell, Contributor-at-Large (Quite Large)

  • Winner: Donald J. Trump
  • Electoral Vote Count: 309 – 229
  • House:  Democrats, but razor thin
  • Senate: Republicans with some pickups
  • Upset: Martha McSally will hold her seat (R-AZ), John James will pull it off (R-MI)! Minnesota and Arizona will go hard for Trump.
