Hallowe'en Masks Pick the Pres

by Sandy Sand

And the winner is…..

….. Barack Obama!

I wouldn’t take it to the bank, but pre-presidential election sales of Hallowe’en masks have been accurate predictors of who will be our next president.

Tracking of sales by Amazon.com showed that Barack Obama masks are outselling John McCain masks by a margin of eight percent; 54 percent to 46 percent, which more or less reflects the national polls.

Buycostumes.com has been tracking sales of presidential candidate Hallowe’en masks since 1980, and there’s no masking the fact that in every instance the winner of the election also was the winner in mask purchasing race.
