Primary Election Contest
Posted by: Barry Jantz | 06/04/2008 10:02 AM
My first email was at 1:23 a.m., wondering who won the contest. Several since then. And, I thought I needed to get a life.
Uhhh, back off a little, wouldya? Several entries to go thru. Real job. Family. Life.
However, from my cursory review as the guesses were coming in, I would say a few folks had most -- if not all -- of the answers right: Sanders done last night, Boling, Lightner, Goldsmith/Aguirre, Block (that one is still close, but not that close), et al.
I'll cull thru the guesses in the next couple of days, but I believe it will come down to the last tie-breaker...margin between DeMaio and George. Several folks picked high on that one, but not sure anyone guessed 33 percent. Wow.
I should have had a question about the highest percentage in a "contested" race. Jacob?
More to follow. Relax and have a beer...or perhaps a valium.
Barry: How many participants?
About 40, but I won't say how many were pollsters. Padres game tonight. Results tomorrow, hopefully.
Have the Padres won more than 2 games in a row yet? If not, maybe you should start a contest on if/when! They're paying way more per home run than Francis did per vote.
