Obviously subject to change and all that, but yes, I do plan on doing all 50 states except Alaska (just not possible) though don't throw a fit if I don't do Texas or Georgia.

Anyway, I'll start here with the easiest, Delaware and Hawaii:




Yeah, I didn't even have to use Paint!

Next up: Minnesota, North Dakota and Utah.

Because that's what Akaka got in 2006 when he got about equal to what I think Obama will get. Smiley

It's not really THAT big of a swing though since Kerry fell JUST short of 60% there.

no, dedication is actually finishing the project.  though I suspect BRTD is more likely to than most.

Gore lost Kent County by 2, while winning DE by 13 points. Now that Obama is ahead in DE by 15+ points he should win it easily.

Kent trended hard to the Republicans in '04.  I expect it vote for McCain albeit narrowly.

NC's kind of tricky. I don't think it'll look like the 1998 Senate though the numbers should be close. SC won't be much different from 2004 though.

Here's another easy one I forgot about:



I don't see any county changing even shading-wise (though this mostly comes from McCain doing a lot worse nationwide but getting a homestate boost to make up here.) Maybe Yavapai will drop below 60%.

PA's likely near the end, since I don't want the thread to be derailed by an argument between me and Phil.

Are you planning on doing any more tonight?
