It looks like Barack Obama will be President of the United States. The same minor league baseball promotion that predicted George W. Bush's win in 2004 has now predicted that Obama will beat John McCain in 2008.
6 cities were chosen and game attendees could choose between Obama or McCain bobble heads. Obama won 55.1% while McCain had 44.9%. Here are the full results -
• Hudson Valley, NY (Renegades): 750 (51.3%) 713 (48.7%)
• Brockton, MA (Rox): 500 (52.3%) 456 (47.7%)
• Charleston, SC (RiverDogs): 500 (58.1%) 360 (41.9%)
• St. Paul, MN (Saints): 1250 (58%) 906 (42%)
• Sioux Falls, SD (Canaries): 500 (55.2%) 405 (44.8%)
• Fort Myers, FL (Miracles): 500 (54.4%) 419 (45.6%)
• TOTALS: 4,000 ( 55.1%) 3,259 ( 44.9%)
Funny aside - Obama has a microphone and McCain doesn't.
