Counties to watch: Bucks County PA; Wood County OH; Hamilton County OH; Tuscarawas County OH

I like your bellwether pics. :) I'm watching Defiance and Wood Counties, as I'm right in-between them, in Putnam. If Romney is above 60% in Defiance and above 52% in Wood, he is likely to win. I'm also watching Warren and Delaware, important "exurban" counties. If Romney wins Warren by 72% or better, and Delaware at 66% or better, he's going to have a big night.

Also, for a national bellwether, watch Vigo County, Indiana. Vigo has voted with the winner for many moons, and the percentage of the vote in that county closely tracks with the national popular vote - it's a nearly perfect national bellwether.

Thanks for the tip, LS and Ravi!
