Answer 1

Separate the selectors with a comma:

var outcome = $('#outcome, #outcome2');

What you currently have is looking for an element matching #outcome2 that is a descendant of an element matching #outcome.

This is documented under "multiple selector" in the jQuery API. As noted on that page, an alternative is to use the add method (but I would definitely recommend sticking with the multiple selector in this case):

var outcome = $('#outcome').add('#outcome2');
