OH and NV shift from white to back from the previous day's light blue. IN and FL shift from light red to white. I don't think I've ever seen FL white? and I know I've never seen IN white. :bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce: Obama was arround this EV level in July before the model was changed to project the race to tighten.

1. "Oops"
Oops

Ignore the numbers you see for the time being -- unintentionally overwrote some code when running the simulation a moment ago and it spit out some bad results. Everything will be fixed within 10 or 15 minutes.

4. As much as I rankle at the constant polling, these two guys have a great website,
and an upfront description of their methodology. Even this non statistical political aficionado can follow their reasoning.

I see there's been a glitch, which they noted.

6. Happy birthday to my 17 yr old- he can't sleep when the polls are bad
I raised a real Dem and Barack is his hero. The 24th is his birthday and this will be a great gift--thanks, PerfectSage

7. I have a 7yr old grand daughter who is campaigning for Obama and
every time she hears or reads a poll, where Obama is ahead, she runs to me and tells me. Yup, she's a real democrat.
