Pindell Report releases final Election Day predictions

The Pindell Report, Politicker.com's political and campaign forecast, has released its final projections for Election Day. Using polling, historical and demographic trends, tracking campaign visits and spending, The Pindell Report ranks races in terms of their competitiveness and their status as either a toss-up or leaning or likely voting in a particular way.

In Nevada, The Pindell Report's final breakdown is as follows:

PRESIDENT:

Leans Democratic. Nevada has been the model of the swing state until October when it opened up for Obama. There is no looking back.

U.S. HOUSE:

3rd Congressional District. Leans Democratic. With voter registration numbers tilting in her favor, State Sen. Dina Titus appears poised to eke out a victory against Republican Rep. Jon Porter on Tuesday night.

NATIONAL OUTLOOK:
The Pindell Report estimates Barack Obama will become the next president receiving at least 353 electoral votes tomorrow compared to John McCain's 174 electoral votes. The only toss-up state is Missouri. For the U.S. Senate, Pindell predicts that Democrats will pick up either 7 or 8 seats and will fall short of the 60 seats they need to end a filibuster. The only Senate race viewed as too close to call is in Minnesota. In the House, Democrats are poised to pick up at least 21 seats with 6 seats viewed as toss ups.
