1. Thanks to GWB and Howard Dean's 50 state project
all states are swing states except maybe Utah.

2. If Obama wins the state
Edited on Wed May-14-08 09:21 AM by Robyn66
it doesn't count and will not help the Dems win in the GE. Only what Hillary wins, can win the GE. Now chant that until you beleive it! :D

3. And Maine and Nebraska may even have swing districts
Those states award electoral votes by district as well as state-wide. It's possible to have a targeted district there even if the state as a whole is pretty blue or red.
