I would like to know when the closing time (GMT) is for the 2008 prediction contest and how the scores are calculated?

You get 1 point for guessing which party a state goes for, and 1 point for guessing the margin. 100 points total.

112 points actually.  50 States, DC, and 5 CD's gives 56 contests, with 1 point each  for party and margin.  I managed to get 94/112 in 2004, we'll see how I do this year.

And if you get the party wrong, you won't receive a point for a correct prediction of the margin. Which is why I hope that Missouri goes to McCain Smiley
