Wet the vote
Posted by Garrett Ryan Ferencz at November 2, 2004 10:20 AM

Rain, Rain, Go Away.

A blogger on the scene report! For days now we have all been hearing about endless lines at our polling places, rumors about the election machinery itself breaking down.

I just voted shortly past 7:00 a.m. this morning in Kirkland. The ballot was easy to figure out, and the whole affair took about 4 minutes. I wonder if the rain will impact the predicted 80 plus Washington turnout? My prediction is that it will (70 percent turn out).

Do any of my fellow bloggers have a prediction for the day? Popular vote? Electoral Vote?

My Prediction

Popular Vote: Bush 49 Kerry 47

Electoral College: Bush 293 Kerry 245

Respond. What's your prediction?

Surprise: Bush wins Hawaii
