I prefer gas heat/water/stove myself. Here in Oregon the price different is negligible. It seems like gas water heaters heat faster, and I definitely prefer cooking on a gas stovetop, as it is easier to control the heat.
But if you want a real answer, I fear you are going to have to crunch some numbers. Furthermore, what is the difference in efficiency between the gas furnace and the electric furnace? Both furnaces should have an average cost to operate that is easy to find, and comparing those numbers should give you a better idea as to which is going to be more cost-effective over time.
