Electoral votes; Kerry 301, bush 231

Good news :)

And from a rightwing source, even. They try hard to spin it as good news for bush but hey...301 to 231 is NOT good news for bush and that's just a fact. Damn them facts! :D

2. Kerry never had Arizona

BTW, that site won't be updated with Zogby till tomorrow. To be honest, even what they have now isn't bad considering what Kerry's been through the past month.

5. that site admits it's skewed

Edited on Tue Sep-07-04 07:56 PM by ZombyWoof

It bases its findings on trends and such, not very accurate, and the author makes a plea not to send him emails about it.

And as an AZ resident, I can assure you Kerry has not had the lead here versus Bush since February, but that will change.
