I don't think my answers matter since I don't live in the US, but I'm bored.

That is the question of the day, and Electoral Vote is now asking the same ones Isaac recently posed (I will do a final revision of my own responses there shortly:)
Whom do you like for US president?
Someone other than Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. I'd guess Obama sounds best for the US citizens that aren't rich, but they are so close ideologically it don't really matter to me.
Whom do you expect to win?
I think Obama, but I wouldn't bet money on it.
Democrats now have a 53/47 Senate majority but trail Republicans 193/242 in the House; how many seats will they have in each chamber tomorrow?
I'm not that involved.
What, if any, party do you prefer? Ideology?
A socialistic one. Which I don't even know if the US have.
What is the most important issue to you?
If I lived in the US I'd probably say a good social safety net. Or jobs.
Then four demographic questions: Location, sex, age and education level.
Sweden , yes please, old enough, and no.
For conservatives convinced pollsters/poll compilations (e.g. ElectoralVote.com) are hopelessly, shamefully, biased against all things GOP, this is a chance to change that, as tomorrow is a chance to address similar feelings on government. In this case it is at least as much about increasing accuracy and precision by future election models as about making ones voice heard. Back later; the new job seems to have given me a cold as well as reduced my post frequency....
EDIT: Just to clarify, while I am curious about how each of you respond, I encourage everyone to vote in the EV.com poll (since that is the one actually trying to compile a complete profile.) Incidentally, foreign respondents are welcome, too, though their choices are tracked separately from those who can register to vote in the US.
(I don't really think voting matters, I can't say I see the US as a democracy. I just can't see it with things like the Electoral College. Maybe if I understood it better, but I dunno.)
So, Whom Do You Like?

Thanks; I did want to know, but did not want to ASK since it is none of my business.

As you surely know, the old rule I obviously ignore is "never discuss politics or religion."
