Yet another poll, I know. Mostly RED map here.

Any thoughts?

Nate Silver on the right. Woot.

I think this is possible if everything breaks right. I love it that Oregon and Minnesota and Michigan go red. No one is expecting that. Maine could even tip. The Left will be in complete meltdown.

If both OR and MN go to R&R I will eat my hat. Reagan couldn't get MN in ‘84 in the face of a 49-state win. I know Mondull was the favorite son then, but, geez, the ‘Rats are so entrenched there. He couldn't get MN in ‘80 either even though he clobbered Carter nationwide. G. H. W. Bush lost both MN and OR in his ‘88 landslide. I'd love to have to eat my hat, but I don't think it's going to happen.

I have tabulated the data here in an Excel spreadsheet, did some other things to it, and plan to use it Election night to check results against this projection. Could be interesting.

Here in Ohio where I am, I sense the winds are blowing a tide that is favorable to Romney. If this is correct, it could be over quickly...News at 11...

If the rest of this map is close to what actually happens, Ohio won’t matter and there will be no ‘hanging chads’. to challenge.

DISCLAIMER: I am not saying that this prognostication is correct, but I see some encouragement in all this. Note to all...achieving these kinds of numbers requires that we ALL get out there and vote, and that we encourage as many right minded folks that we know to do the same.

Below is the map of the electoral votes and then below that the raw data showing both percentages and actual projected number of votes for the two candidates in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Historical data from the last four elections is included for comparing.
