930 Club Official 2016 Election Political Nostradamus Predictions Thread

Exactly what it says on the tin.. go.
the winner will receive a free CD signed (and dedicated if you'd like) by yours truly….in addition to the grand prize: a free concert ticket to a 930 show (no echo stage, lincoln, U St hall or DAR just 930) of your choice ($50 and under face value [don't worry about ticket charges])… Note the ticket prize is contingent on there being at least 8 participants including myself…. I think it may be hard to get 8 people to play but if its just a few the way I see it nobody deserves a free ticket.
Needless to say the winner will also cement his or her status as potential Boardie of the Year…
there are five components to the contest.. each will be weighted equally….20 points each…
1. Pick who wins each state and DC..
2. Pick the popular vote % totals for Trump, Hillary, Johnson and Stein…
3. Pick the number of Americans that will vote (turnout number not percentage)
4. Pick the electoral vote
5. Pick the President
The winner will have bragging rights for the next 4 years.
Note I am still working on my formula calculate the winner….because math is hard for me if somebody wants to come up with the formula I would appreciate it..
Entries due by midnight EST Monday night….they can be sent to my email and I can post them at Tuesday morning..but they have to be received by midnight…. I will send my own entry by midnight and not read other entries in order not to have an unfair advantage..
I really have no clue what is going to happen at this point.. there are wildly divergent scenarios seemingly in play…

Walkie, you forgot to admonish him for his inappropriate use of the word "official" in every thread he creates as if it means something, otherwise, spot on.

I could see doing a set list of swing states but there's at least 30-35 states that are set in stone.

Yeah, picking 51 things is like Kilsaly making a list of his favorite albums that came out in the past month.

ok I had a brain wave last night.. 1 is rather superflous anyways so get rid of it..I'm also getting rid of 5.
so:
1. Pick the popular vote % totals for Trump, Hillary, Johnson and Stein…
2. Pick the number of Americans that will vote (turnout number not percentage)
3. Pick the electoral vote for each candidate that you predict will get electoral votes
I still need a formula

Where shall we send our responses? I do not have your personal email address. Additionally, I'll buy your beers if I win.

To be fair, he says something funny a few times per thousand posts. Maybe "every couple hundred posts" is closer to accurate.
