Here's something you may not know. This is a list of five curious, yet oddly successful, ways of predicting the presidential election in November (from ABCNews):

1. Just before the election is Halloween and this holiday is 4 for 4 on predicting who the winner is. Based on sales, who ever gets the most masks sold will be the winner. Obama is currently outselling Romney 69% to 31%.

2. NFL's Washington Redskins have had a streak of choosing the winner for the last 18 of 19 elections. The only one they missed was Bush/Kerry in 2004. On the game before the election, if they win then the incumbent wins. If they lose then the challenger wins. This year, the Redskins play the Carolina Panthers.

3. Two University of Colorado professors have been predicting the last eight elections strictly based on statistics all wrapped up into one complicated formula and they have an 8 for 8 record. They predict Obama winning only 213 of the 270 electoral votes necessary for victory.

4. Online gambling is on a weak streak of 2 for 2. 70% currently have their money on Obama and 30% have their money on Romney.

5. Elementary School kids have been picking the winner for 16 out of the last 18 elections. These results will be available October 10.
