As Predicted—Only More So

Washington, November 7: Two weeks ago this correspondent predicted the election of General Eisenhower with a minimum of 311 electoral votes; a Senate composed of 50 Democrats and 46 Republicans, and a Democratic majority in the House of Representatives. On November 1, my forecast— revised in view of the international conflicts and domestic apprehension— included 61 additional electoral votes, or a total of 372, and no change in the outlook for a Democratic Congress.
