There is a clear front-runner in the presidential race, according to one seasonal tradition.
CNN Money reports retailer Spirit Halloween says President Obama masks are outselling Mitt Romney’s 60 percent to 40 percent.
The Halloween store has correctly predicted the outcome of every presidential election since 1996 based on study of the sale of masks.
There are also a few other Halloween costumes inspired by the presidential race that are proving hot sellers.
Big Bird costumes have reportedly been flying off the shelves, as have components for “binders full of women” costumes.
