I just entered the prediction contest - I’d like to have these races top of mind on election night - will you publish the complete list so I can focus obsessively (especially on the house races that will flip the house to blue!)?
I'd also suggest an option to send a copy of your responses to yourself so we can remember who we picked and what random numbers we can up with for the tiebreaker
If we’ve already entered, can we still get the option to send a copy? Or do I have to do it over again in order to do that? And thanks for putting this on!
I assume the only difference between how subscribers and non-subscribers are treated is that only subscribers are eligible for the prize. If I am not mistaken, non-subscribers can still submit responses and also be included in the spreadsheet publication posted that ranks all the contestants to know what place they were in?
I don't think you can, alas, because we only discovered that feature after the contest went live. But you can either resubmit (we'll only look at the most recent entry), or you can wait until we announce the results, when we'll share a full spreadsheet of everyone's guesses.
Submitted! I changed my mind on Marc Molinaro, Don Bacon (!), and Mark Farrell after looking at polling.
Also I changed my mind on Hillsborough County, FL State Attorney. I had forgotten that Lopez is the incumbent because she was appointed by DeSantis after he ousted democratically elected Harris. Those kind of shenanigans are not popular with voters.
Finally, so you don't have to, I looked at the proposed Maine flag. It is very bland. I would vote yes for a cool flag like the South Carolina palmetto flag, but not for going from bland to bland. See it here: https://ballotpedia.org/File:MaineProposedDesign.png

Awesome! And yes, we sure will!
Thanks for all you do!

Great idea! I just set that option. Though we will also publish everyone's responses when we announce winners.

I think that is the case, yes

How can I retrieve my earlier submission? Thanks

Can you tell me if I submitted a full entry?.. Sorry for my confusion but I want to make sure I have a valid entry
Great set of questions.
Not much uncertainty in the Senate. Gallego, Scott, Alsobrooks, Slotkin, Sheehy, Fischer, Rosen, Brown, Casey, Cruz, Baldwin.
The house races are very interesting. My first salvo, I might revise after research. Peltola, Schweikert, Ciscomani, Duarte, Valadao, Garcia, Rollins, Steel, Baugh, Caraveo, Miller-Meeks, Nunn, Golden, Barrett, Junge, James, Zinke, Vargas, Kean, Vasquez, Gillen, Lawler, Ryan, Molinaro, Williams, Merrin, Sykes, Chavez-DeRemer, Wild, Cartwright, Perry, Gonzalez, Kiggans, Vindman, Gluesenkamp Perez, Van Orden.
The grab bag even more interesting. Ayotte, Griffin, DePasquale, Farrell, Stringham, Lopez, Powers, Yes, Yes, No.
Tiebreaker is tiebreaker. 56-38-6.

Tweaked tiebraker to 58-38-4.
