It's time for that venerable Red County/OC Blog Election Day tradition: predictions!
Instead of a single winner for the greatest number of accurate predictions, this time the contest will be broken down by campaign. Whoever comes closest to the actual vote percentages wins a prize. Remember, you're prediction must go at least one decimal place, and the contest closes at 8:00 p.m.
Here are the campaigns you can enter predictions for -- and the lovely prizes you can win!:
Measure M: The winner will receive a box of bubble-gum cigarettes to enjoy at any county beach.
The 5th Supervisor District -- Bates v. DeYoung: the winner will receive this Marie Antionette Action Figure.
Measure X: Correctly predict the outcome and win this set of Cold War Unicorns!
34th Senate District -- Correa v. Daucher (and you have to include Otto Bade's percentage): a fearsome Dashboard Ninja set.
47th Congressional District: Sanchez v. Nugyen: This fiery set of Cockatil Demons!
Predictions are now open!
Let's hope my luck continues:
Measure M 65% Yes 30% No
Bates 58 % DeYoung 40%
Measure X-Haven't followed
Correa 48% Daucher 44% Blade less than 2%
Sanchez 68% Nguyen 20%

The Vietnamese votes will decide the victor in the 34th Senate and a large turned-out will carry many Vietnamese-American candidates into local offices.
