Still a lot of good races coming up. I am calling for predictions for 13 Gov races (VA and NJ), special Senate in NJ, Special CD in Massachusett’s own Fightin Fifth and early Statewide 14′ and mid term predictions. In commemoration of Nate Silver moving to ESPN we can also add in some sports predictions too.
Please share widely!
Will be interesting to see if Chris Christie’s cynical ploy to hold the Senate election separately stands up in court.
Christie in NJ, McAuliffe in VA: Christie is popular and McAuliffe is ahead of the ultimate nutjob. This would buck a VA trend though as they lately have elected Governor opposite the party of the President elected the previous year.
Steve Kornacki reports in Salon.com and on his MSNBC show about obscure rules that bar Wall Streeters from donating to governors seeking federal office. He says that as a result Christie may have to resign as Governor if he wants to collect from his most enthusiastic supporters. I wonder if Barbara Buono might be able to use this against him in the Governor’s race. One can only hope.
