Unlike some of my professors and classmates, I am still a big advocate of voting. I don't know if that makes me an irrational economist or not?
Regardless, here's a collection of useful links for tomorrow's election:

Tradesports.com is still predicting the Republicans will keep control of the Senate and the Democrats will get control of the House. Tradesports has been remarkably reliable in the past and I have no reason to doubt their predictions now.

Brian,
You're only being irrational if you're voting to alter the outcome. If you have other reasons for voting, that is completely rational.
Of course, whatever those reasons are, they will have to run counter to the idea that democracy is a process for choosing leaders.
