Another Monday, and another round of Electoral predictions...

I've added in a few swing states instead of rolling the dice this week. Last week, I had the states as 274-264 in favor of the GOP. This week, I've made a few changes, specifically with the addition of the aforementioned swing states. The swing states are as follows: Nevada, Colorado, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Virginia. Each of these could go either way, but the current momentum is in John McCain's favor.

So there isn't much change, but the electoral map is a dead heat, even with the swing states, with the GOP holding a 227-226 advantage. This shows that if any state is flipped, it will change the outcome of the election. Of course, should the votes be a tie at 269-269 - which is a distinct possibility, it would be an Obama victory, due to the tie-breaker being controlled by the Democrats in Congress. There could also be another piece of drama, if McCain wins the popular vote, and Obama the Electoral, as has also been predicted. Should this happen, will the same "selected, not elected" crowd be up in arms? Probably not...
