Predictions you can count on

Peter Hoskin 1:22pm

The Spectator's own James Forsyth has just been revealed as the top mainstream media performer in Politics Home's Presidential Election Predictor Competition.  Along with Rob Schlesinger, of the US News and World Report, and Chuck Todd, of NBC'S First Read, James correctly predicted the election outcome in 18 of 20 battleground states. Congratulations, James!

For James's continuing views on US politics, head over to Americano.

Congratulations to James. Well deserved recognition. I'm always more informed after reading his insightful work.

Huge result! Beating the Yanks in their own competition and powering the Speccie onto American turf. Many congratulations to James.

PS An ad in the broadsheets and on the approriate blog sites featuring this result would seem a must for the Speccie. As of course would be a huge salary rise for James.
