Electoral Vote Predictor: "Welcome to Electoral Vote Predictor 2004, which tracks the electoral vote (EV) state by state. In 2000, Al Gore won the popular vote by over half a million votes but George Bush won the electoral vote by 5 votes and became president. Thus watching the electoral vote is more important than watching the national polls. This website is dedicated to tracking the electoral vote by examining the state-by-state polls. As new state polls are released, the maps, spreadsheets, tables, graphs, and movies will be updated. In the maps, the white states are essentially tossups and are subject to rapid fluctuations. The magic number needed to be elected is 270." There is also another site doing something pretty similar. Electoral-vote.com is run by someone who admits to being a Kerry supporter. ElectionProject.com by someone more conservative. Interestingly, they both seem to be reporting similar numbers.
