Electoral Vote Predictor

2004-06-24 17:23:07.564248+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Dang it, I mention this site to someone and realize that I've got two (1, 2) totally nerdly and excessively long entries yesterday. Oh well...

I was hoping to break that with some juicy sexual culture links or something, but I'm coming up dry this morning, so we'll settle for...

Over at Backup Brain, Dori linked to the Electoral Vote Predictor. Rather than the national "this percent support..." polls, which really mean nothing, this one breaks it down to support by state and tallies what that means in terms of actual election results. It also shows how fickle and constantly changing the election really is, even though nationally the numbers don't change that much.

Speaking of which, remember back in April when we reported that the Rev. Dr. Sun Myung allegedly addressed Congress and was crowned the Messiah? The New York Times has finally picked up on the story, congrats to John Gorenfeld's efforts to get the world out.
