Help predict the health care vote

Our new feature helps determine the swing votes on the health care bill.

How will the Senate vote on health care?

That's the question on everybody's minds as Democratic leaders in Congress attempt to clear the last hurdle for a historic overhaul.

Now you can help answer it.

We at Congress.org have created an interactive feature called Predict-a-Vote where you can make your predictions on how individual senators will vote. You can guess from one to all 100.

Our software then tallies the predictions made for each senator and comes up with the best crowd-sourced guess on how the bill will fare.

The results should also help you see who the biggest swing votes are so that you can send them a letter. Just sort by the percentage for or against and look for the senators around 50 percent.

You can only submit one set of predictions, but you can change your guesses at any time.

Click here to make your guesses on the Predict-a-Vote.
