World first - ShadowLands calls it

The ShadowLands is calling the US election a landslide for the Democratic Party, following a close examination of results.

In 2004, George W Bush won by 19 to 7 in the bellwether town of Dixville Notch in New Hampshire. However in 2008, Barack Obama won 15 to 6.

While lesser lily-livered no news excuses for so-called blogs are still saying "it is too early to tell" and indeed, many refusing to even analyse these results until polls open, the ShadowLands will not shy away from making the big calls.

ShadowLands spokes-thing and election expert, Margo's Maid said the swing was quite a large one.

"To be honest, my mathematics isn't that good to extrapolate the swing, but I'm guessing from this result, it could be anything up to thousands of per cent.

"Despite predictions of a large voter turn-out, early indications are that they may have fallen by as much as four in towns like these. Sorry guys, I just call it like I see it."

ShadowLands made the call at 8 am New York time, establishing a reputation as the world's first and best source of election news.
