McCain's edge in the projected electoral vote from electoral-vote.com touted by Repubs on other boards. However, for example, if you look at it today, though McCain has 290 electoral votes 120 of those are "barely GOP". Meanwhile of Obama's 237 only 16 are considered "barely Dem". Now to me, that means McCain's projected electoral vote lead is tenuous at best, and bodes well for Obama's chances. Wouldn't you agree? BTW, great job am looking forward to regular GE math updates.

I have a question about popular vote. So far, there are 4 states whose EVs go to the pop vote winner |

You're speaking of state EVs going to the national popular vote winner? |

People will need to learn that their votes can affect EVs in other states, not just their own |
