Election Pool Final Results

 

 

ELECTION POOL RESULTS...a tie!

COBY JOSEPH of the University of Michigan correctly named Obama (332) and Romney's (206) electoral votes. He also correctly picked the winner in every swing state

 

JOHANNA SILVA of the University of California Santa Barbara nailed the vote percentages (Obama 50.9, Romney 47.6) She gave Florida and Colorado to Romney, however she correctly chose Sherman over Berman and said gay marriage measures would pass in all four states. 

Coby appeared to squeak ahead by winning the tiebreaker, by coming closer to Obama's vote total in California. However a recount showed that on another answer (What time will the loser deliver a concession speech) he put down 1:15 Wednesday, without indicating AM or PM. Assume he meant AM and he wins. Assume he meant PM and Johanna wins. Fortunately we do not need to take this to the Supreme Court. Both of them wins a $50 Amazon gift card.

Congratulations.
