Need your insight please
is this a McLame site?

http://electoralvote.com/

I know his ad is there, but is there another way to check this out?

I want to know cause DUer's are using this site as reference to back up their "argument(s)"

Thank you in advance for anyone who can help.

1. It was a typo, they forgot to put the hyphen between electoral and vote. electoral-vote . com
http://www.electoral-vote.com/

It was probably to late to edit the original post.

5. I rate electoral-vote.com pretty highly.
AFAIK the operator is a Republican but he's primarily interested in electoral stats and runs his site in a non-partisan way. He also cautions people that forecasting is a very inexact science.

6. He runs his site in a very non-partisan way
but not a Republican -- or at least not a Bush Republican. After Bush took over again in 2004, the site's operator had a very depressing editorial in there. Basically he suggested that anyone who could arrange to leave the states should do so while they still could, as the US was in a downward spiral with Bush still at the helm. It was a real upper, especially considering that was not a personal option.
