We've never been told what Elaine's birthday is, but I doubt it's also Halloween, so I'd say she's probably not one.

I remember woj that she is. He can change his mind though.
But it explains Justin's interest in her.
Dina:
Arjan, yes, I remember a lot of discussion here about that WoJ, but I don't think Elaine and Harry are born the same day. So I guess Jim changed his mind.
In another thread I posted that apparently even vanilla humans could be starborn, but of course they probably never find an outsider, and if they do, they will die because they don't have other defenses against them. But in several hours there are a lot of people born on Earth.

He said she was a "candidate". He also said they were a few months apart in age, so unless there were multiple starborn events that year, I'd say it's looking like she's not.

now, I think EB had more to explain there and Harry's dumb self over road the next part...
And multiple seems likely given Harry being born on Halloween is supposed to be significant. Remember not only was Thomas born on valentine's day, but I'm pretty sure Elaine would be on the spring solstice, the day of new beginnings.
Grifter:
I don't know that the new info necessarily precludes her viability. A few hours might be 4, or it might be 72, or even longer. I agree that it makes it less likely, and suggests that maybe DuMorne wasn't as knowledge as he thought when it comes to that subject.
