Election Results

1. Are you satisfied with the elections result? why or why not?

I was satisfied with the results because Barack Obama is a younger person and understands what people want in this century. Also if McCain or Palin were in office it would be bad because
they don't seem to know what they are talking about.

2. After seeing it in action last night, would you still keep or get rid of the electoral college
system?

After the election I would keep the electoral college system because everyone knows how it works. If we changed it then the new system that would be made, might not be ready for the next election and cause confusion.

3. How close was your map to the results? What changed? What actually happened?

My map was one state off of being perfect. the one state that was wrong was North Carolina. I was wrong because I said that McCain would win it. Barack Obama won that state.

4. Did your Gallup poll research influence your prediction? If so why?

My research did not influence my prediction because I new that everyone liked Obama more then McCain. The polls showed that Obama would win the election anyways. McCain seemed like he was going to win in the spring ,but once Sarah Palin came into the election it was over for him.

5. Other Comments you would like to share?

On CNN I liked the holograms of the people. It seemed futuristic and I had no clue we had that technology yet. Also the check inns when ever a state was decided they would have an alert noise that would notify you.
