Election Predictions

There are several different ways to predict the next President; the height factor, the 7-Election, and Halloween masks.

Statistics have shown that the taller candidate of the two is more likely to win.  In the past, since 1896, the taller candidates have won 19 times and lost eight in the presidential elections.  Just lettin you all know... Obama is 6 feet 1 inch tall and Romney is 6-foot-2.  We all know who's going to win the election!

Another nifty way of predicting who will be president is the color of coffee cups sold at 7-Eleven gas stations.  Those supporting Obama would buy blue cups (for the democrat colors) and those supporting Romney would get the red cups (the republican colors).  This technique has accurately predicted which candidate would become elected every year since 2000.  So far, the customers have blue cups 59 percent of the time and red cups 41 percent, according to 7-Eleven.  So hey guys, Obama's gonna win fo sho.

One last theory deals with Obama and Romney and their VPs look-alike Halloween masks.  Since 2000, the mask vote has also correctly identified who will be elected president.  So guess who has gotten more sales?  Obama and Joe Biden have been chosen by 52 percent of customers to 48 percent for Romney and Paul Ryan.  Uh oh guys, I think Obama's got this one in the bag.

  1. Really interesting! I had just heard about the 7-11 thing, I think it is just crazy! How do you want readers to be engaged with your post? Do you maybe want to pose a question or hypothetical?
