I prefer OpinionJournal's Electoral College Calculator. Clean, easy, lets you reset the map to previous elections.

I created a new website that I think is the best way to keep up with what people are thinking in politics today. Its called http://www.commentarytoday.com and it posts commentaries from 278 different columnists such as Pat Buchanan, Tony Blankley, Michelle Malkin, etc. It's updated every day so you see the latest thoughts from these people on current issues. You also get a chance to post your own thoughts in response to what they say. I've been working on this website for three months and I would really like to know what others think about it. Please let me know what you think of the website and if you have any ideas on how to make it better. Thanks!

Make that Bush 313

Kerry 225. I have to give NH more credit than I did

So we get an ad from a newbie, huh?

This thing has Kentucky as a tossup? It will be closer to a 20 point win than a 10 point win. A solid W state. We can't even get campaign materials here, we are so safe.

I've used this map to speculate on how we win without Florida, worst-case. So I give Kerry FL, DE, NJ, NH, ME, MI, PA, HI & MN to start. If Bush loses FL & PA it hurts, but I think he's got good prospects for NM, WV, & WI. Then, if he wins either IA or OR, he ties in the Electoral College with 269-269. This tie would break in his favor in the House of Representatives.

Bush only lost OR by 6,000 votes in 2000. There will be a Defense of Marriage act on the ballot come November and I think that Nader will be on the ballot also.

Interesting how Ohio is still white though Bush has an 8 point lead there-- the margin of error is 8 ponts?

[Dragonspirit]

Yeah, the fact Kentucky and Arkansas are listed as tossups with no poll data is odd.

[Eagle of Liberty]

Here is my CONSERVATIVE prediction:

Bush - 288
Kerry - 250

Cool link!

[no more apples]

Thank soooooo much! It's the only way I'll EVER get to see RI in the red! (poor poor poor me, poor poor pitiful me...)

[AndyTheBear]

If you click on all white states it show President Bush with 338 and Kerry with 182.

Yeah, but that's electoral votes man!! Bush should be required to get more electoral votes then Kerry gets popular votes...otherwise Bush will be stealing the election man!!

Hey pass me the weed, while I try to remember the how to get back to the DU site...</sarcasm off>

[rs79bm]

According to their polls, Kerry is only showing a lead in 5 of the white states up for grabs. Not good news for Kerry!

[paul51]

I think Or is possible but I'm not counting on it. IA is a long shot and unlikely. Pa is in the bag and Fl should also go Bush although it could be close
