I think I got this one in the right blog tonight. The last post was put in Genea-Musings first and drew some interesting comments. Of course, I got the election estimate backwards, at least as Electoral votes went, but that is OK. I had a fairly peaceful night on Election Night and went to bed semi-happy.
