Reelection Watch

Lessons Learned

280

The dust is finally set­tling from the elec­tion. And I’ll be talk­ing more later about some of the ram­i­fi­ca­tions. Today, though, I’m inter­ested in some navel gaz­ing. There are many lessons to be learned from this elec­tion, by many parties.

I’ll cover some high-​​level views today, but next week I’m going to delve into some of the big­ger top­ics from the White House and Sen­ate perspective.

And, with that, here are some lessons.  (more…)

It’s Election Watching Time

1318

Time’s up! Pen­cils down! Now the bal­lots get turned in and counted. This is the arti­cle in which we can do our play by play watch as the results come trick­ling, and then flood­ing, in.

Here’s a handy list of what to be watch­ing for, and the times to start watch­ing for them.  (more…)

Election Watch: Election Day

109

Here we are, at the end of the road for so many cam­paigns. And it’s the time when I deliver my final predictions.

As with Sat­ur­day, I’m start­ing with early vot­ing. Like Sat­ur­day, this edi­tion includes a sec­tion on the guber­na­to­r­ial races. After that, I delve into the Sen­ate, fol­lowed by the Pres­i­den­tial race. I’m drop­ping the other exter­nal fac­tors, as they should all be priced into the polls by now.

That said, Hur­ri­cane Sandy could have an impact on turnout. But with no prece­dent upon which to draw, it’s anybody’s guess as to what the impact will be.

Election Watch: November 3

205

We’re but three days away from Elec­tion Day, and this is my last Sat­ur­day edi­tion of these Watches. My final edi­tion will run on Tues­day, Elec­tion Day, when I will deliver my final predictions.

As with last Tues­day, I’ll start by look­ing at the ele­ments that cross offices. Unlike Tues­day, this edi­tion includes a sec­tion on the guber­na­to­r­ial races. After that, I delve into the Sen­ate, fol­lowed by the Pres­i­den­tial race.

Election Watch: October 30

376

We’re but a week away from Elec­tion Day, and that means it’s time once again to step up the fre­quency of the Watches. Start­ing today, I am com­bin­ing the Reëlec­tion and Sen­ate watches into a sin­gle arti­cle, which will run today, Sat­ur­day, and Elec­tion Day, when I will deliver my final predictions.

This makes today’s arti­cle far length­ier than usual, but packed with nutri­tional data. And tasty, too.

I’ll start by look­ing at the ele­ments that cross offices, and then delve into the Sen­ate, fol­lowed by the Pres­i­den­tial race.  (more…)

Each week brings an ever increas­ing flood of data. For this rea­son, today is the last weekly ver­sion of Reëlec­tion Watch. Start­ing next week, Reëlec­tion Watch and Sen­ate Watch will be com­bined in a for­mat that will appear for the last three slots prior to the election.

What’s the lat­est news? Let’s dive in and see.
