What are the odds to win the 2012 elections?
If you already know, there is no need to wait, you can bet on who is going to win the elections and instead of waiting in vain, you will wait in comfort.
The 2012 elections are the event everybody is talking about and or those who are not familiar with the process of electing the US president, here we will give a brief description of it.
In the immense territory of the United States of America, electing a president might get a little complicated. As we all know, the US is a democracy, one of the oldest in the world but as mentioned before with its extensive territory, its multicultural composition, its constitutional structured based on a federation with partially self-governed states and its more than 308 million inhabitants the process of voting must be simplified a bit.
Even though every vote counts, not every single citizen is able to vote directly to elect the president. First of all the citizens must be registered to cast a vote for their delegates in the party of their preference that is Republican or Democrat. These delegates bound or not to vote for a particular candidate of their party cast their ballot and then the candidate to run for president is elected. Later the Electoral College has the responsibility of voting to elect the next president of the USA, to get this done the candidate must have at least 270 electoral votes.
It is not of our concern how those 270 votes are distributed in each state, this article, provides just a quick reminder that US territories do not have the possibility to vote in the presidential election.
Now that the Obama administration, with its ups and downs is about to finish, if he is not re elected, in the GOP the steam is starting to come out of the boiling room.
While the Democratic Party has its road well paved as no other candidate but Obama himself will be looking for the presidency, the Republicans are still struggling to find the right pick to get the job done.
The number of candidates to choose from in the GOP goes up to more than 20, between those declared and speculated ones, but when it comes down to possibilities to get to the White House the number decreases considerably.
Right now three are the names that sound more powerfully in the mainstream, Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin and Mike Huckabee, along with great new ones in the field such as Herman Cain, with an intelligent argument.
Romney is a successful businessman and has campaign experience. People criticize him because of his support to the Massachusetts health care law which gives Massachusetts residents a minimum level of healthcare insurance which has been compared to Obamacare during the race to 2012 elections, that and some say his religion is also an obstacle, he is Mormon when many republicans belong to Evangelical Christian congregations.
Although Sarah Palin has not confirmed she is actually running for president yet she is still strong among tea party conservatives. Many think she is weak to campaign side to side with Barack Obama though.
The last one to mention will be Mike Huckabee well known because of his show “Huckabee” on Fox news providing him enormous exposure. He is strong among religious conservatives being a pastor himself and is seen as a real contender for the next presidential elections.
This is the scenario, we just have to wait and see. So far Obama ranks 45% on a Pew Research Center poll released last march.
Some are crossing fingers, some others grinding teeth, but one thing is for sure, not one single of the candidates is blinking at this moment.
