2016 Presidential Election

2016 Presidential Election
November 8, 2016
Using 6:49 pm EST at Washington (local sunrise)
Tropical/Koch
Jupiter is closer to the Midheaven at 26 Leo 03 than Saturn, so according to the Jupiter-Saturn-Midheaven arc method of predicting presidential elections, this would indicate a win for the Republican candidate, Donald Trump, who at this writing (August 2016) is trailing the Democratic candidate, Hillary Rodham Clinton, by a substantial margin in the polls. The Jupiter-Saturn-Midheaven arc method does only moderately well at predicting the winner of presidential elections, being accurate only about 2/3 of the time.
The asteroid aspects to the major planets in this year’s presidential elections seem to reflect contemporary issues surrounding the election, including modern elections’ theocratic overtones, lack of restrictions on corporate campaign donations, Hillary Clinton’s persistent and methodical ambition, and Donald Trump as a protest candidate.
As I believe Eris should be considered a major planet, it is included as such here, and aspects to the Moon, owing to its big rate of daily motion, are not considered.
