Try to think back to Election Day 2004, if possible, and think of every state you've been to at least once (either flown into or driven through or visited, etc.) and add up the Electoral Votes of each state and post here.  You can only count a state once.  You can also include the states you plan to visit between now and Monday night, November 3, 2008 at 11:59 pm EST.

For an extra kick (optional), divide those states into red/blue states based on the 2004 Bush/Kerry map.

As for me,

I've been to Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Florida, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Mississippi, Alabama

So, adding those up:  Oklahoma (7) + Kansas (6) + Missouri (11) + Texas (34) + Louisiana (9) + Georgia (15) + Florida (27) + Pennsylvania (21) + New Jersey (15) + New York (31) + Massachusetts (12) + New Hampshire (4) + Michigan (17) + Illinois (21) + Indiana (11) + Mississippi (6) + Alabama (9)

That is 256 electoral votes combined.  135 Republican, 121 Democratic.

You can now add New Mexico to my list.  New Mexico went for Bush in 2004, so that would put it 140 Republican - 121 Democratic
