Click here (AFP) to read a quick blurb about how Peruvian shamans weighed-in on the U.S. Presidential election... Genuine prophecy? Or good poll numbers?

I do not believe this a genuine prophesy. Primarily because of too much good chance (50:50), and secondarily because of too many polls and their statistics published.
I am suspicious that this is a real prophecy, but I am definitely intrigued by the ceremonial practices that were used with the intention of influencing politics, when I would usually associate the practices with more religious and shamanistic situations.
The shaman predicting the outcome of the race has nothing to do with how the rest of the country voted. This has been in the works for a long time now. I think a couple of people were bored and made it up.

This is so fake it isn't even funny.

I find it interwesting that the Shaman in Peru had nothing better to do than to use their spirit messengers to predict who we would elect president.

I feel as though using shamanistic means to predict the US presidential elections is to take shamanism out of context.
