OK! Predictions for tomorrow's primaries:
In SC, ND, DE, OK, MO, NM, and AZ. Pick the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers in each state.

SC - Edwards 25%, Kerry 18%, Clark 15% --Clark is the surprise!

ND - Clark 28%, Kerry 22%, Dean 18% --- Edwards may also get 15%!

DE - Kerry 30%, Edwards 22%, Lieberman 16% ---Lieberman is out!

OK - Clark 29%, Kerry 27%, Edwards 15% --Dean may get 15% !

MO - Kerry 34%, Dean 17%, Clark 15% -- Dean surprises in MO!

NM - Kerry 24%, Clark 22%, Dean 18% -- Closer than expected!

AZ - Clark 27%, Kerry 26%, Dean 20% -- The state to watch!



Clark and Kerry tie with 3 wins each. Edwards wins one. Clark and Dean surprise with their efforts. That is my prediction. :)

1. Man - those are specific
Edited on Mon Feb-02-04 08:54 PM by D G
I'm surprised you didn't have decimal points in your percentages ;)

I would LOVE to see Clark tie Kerry with 3 wins each. Make it a Clark/Kerry race - that would make my day.

And of course Lieberman dropping out... "An idea whose time has come." After all, we need those DINOs in the Senate! (just kidding)

Edit: The only prediction I will make is that Clark will win AZ or NM (in addition to OK, and possibly other states I won't predict). No math for me, lol

12. my predictions (and I predicted Kerry getting 40% last time)
I say ...

In South Carolina...

Kerry - 36%
Edwards - 33%
Clark - 13%

In North Dakota...

Kerry - 30%
Clark - 29%
Edwards - 17%

In Delaware...

Kerry - 35%
Edwards - 25%
Lieberman - 17%

In Oklahoma...

Clark - 34%
Kerry - 32%
Edwards - 20%

In Missouri...

Kerry - 45%
Edwards - 18%
Clark - 15%

In New Mexico...

Kerry - 30%
Dean - 24%
Clark - 23%

In Arizona...

Kerry - 32%
Clark - 29%
Dean - 20%


So I have it, six wins for Kerry. One win and one second place finish for Clark. Three second-place and two third-place finishes for Edwards.

Lieberman 16%

No one else qualifies.

Missouri:

Kerry 51%
Edwards 18%

No one else qualifies.

New Mexico:

Kerry 35%
Clark 18%
Dean 15%

No one else qualifies.

Kerry 41%
Clark 15%

No one else qualifies.

Oklahoma:

Clark 30%
Kerry 28%
Edwards 26%

No one else qualifies.

No one else qualifies.

21. So what do you see as the delegate count in these states?
The number of states won is not as important. e.g. Missouri has more delegates than Arizona.

24. Yeeehaaww
After making predictions, and typing them all out, I remembered I don't make predictions.

In MA, we don't say anything until it happens (Red Sox curse and all).

But I'm optimistic.

28. Great prediction
Here's mine:

SC - Edwards 28%, Kerry 24%, Clark 19% Sharpton 11%..gotta include Al

AZ - Clark 29%, Kerry 26%, Dean 19% - Similar to your's

NM - Kerry 30, Clark 22%, Dean 17% -Kerry wins by 8%

OK - Clark 32%, Kerry 28%, Edwards 25% - Close, don't know about Dean

MO - Kerry 34%, Clark 20%, Edwards 19%, Dean 17%

DE - Kerry 33%, Edwards 24%, Lieberman 17% - Joementum is dead

ND - Kerry 26, Clark 24%, Dean 18%

...Kerry wins 4, Clark wins 2, and Edwards wins 1. If Clark does well in the next week or two, this could be a Clark-Kerry race, making Dean and Edwards irrelevant. Of course, this is only a prediction.
