The Next Nate Silver

|
In a project for his AP History course, Eldest Weed has to follow two Senate races and predict their outcome. On a lark, and because computer programming is in his blood, he created his own election model. Here are the predictions he submitted last week (so they can't take into account late-breaking changes, which I think he will regret).

His bottom line? 47 Democratic seats and 53 GOP-caucusing seats.  Let's see how he does Tuesday night.
