Leo (Obama) has a win percent of 36 points vs 33 for Virgo (McCain) historically
http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS98843+01-Apr-2008+BW20080401

ZODIAC researched every major presidential contestant since
Washington and Adams in 1789. Statistics were compiled for each of the
twelve zodiac signs. The Leo/Scorpio match up in the Democratic Party
heavily favors Obama. Leo's have a 12 point advantage in the win
percentage category with Scorpio at 24 percent and Leo at 36 percent.
Leo has never lost to a Scorpio. Scorpio however, has lost to eleven
of the twelve signs and has the greatest number of election losses,
sixteen.

McCain/Obama or Virgo/Leo has never before competed in a
presidential election, though the two have a strong cosmic connection.
Leo's first win was in 1888 followed twenty years later in 1908 by
Virgo's first win. Both defeated Pisces in their first victory. Twenty
years later Leo won again, this time defeating Capricorn. Virgo won
again 36 years later, also defeating Capricorn. Leo continued with two
more wins, this was President Bill Clinton.

Virgo has a win average of 33 percent, three points below Leo.
With such a small difference between them, the element factor has been
taken into account: Fire, Earth, Air, and Water. Fire (Obama) has been
a historical tie breaker when the numbers are too close to call.

ZODIAC's methodology accurately concluded in January that John
McCain would be the Republican nominee. Mitt Romney is a Pisces. This
sign has not won a presidential election in 116 years, and within that
time Ralph Nader was the only major contender.

3. This is unreliable. The zodiac doesn't influence young people or people with cell-phones.
