Places Kerry far ahead of Buh in the electoral college:

Kerry is listed now as being able to take 212 electoral votes in 18 states, Bush holds 146 electoral votes in 16 states. This is the first time this campaign season where Kerry is fimly ahead in both more staes than Bush, and with more electoral votes. Kerry has been ahead of Bush in Electoral votes, due to the size of the states, but now he has both more states,and 66 more electoral votes possible than Bush.

4. Kerrt now has doule digit lead

In Washington State, He is 5.6 points ahead in Oregon, All of New England and most of The Mid Atlantic states are now solid blues,

Latest Wisconsin Polls have Bush at 43.7, Kerry at 51.9, Kerry ahead in Ohio, Bush 44.8 Kerry 49.4. Pennsylvania, Bush 42.6 Kerry 50.8

Kerry does not have s single souther state, but several are still too close to tell.

3. Bob Novak said on Inside Politics last week

Edited on Tue May-25-04 05:06 PM by Kerryfan

that if the election were held on that day Kerry would have over 300 electoral votes. I think it was Friday.

I know Novak is an a--hole but he usually knows what he is talking about.

10. No, Novak doesn't usually know what he is talking about. This falls into

the blind pig/acorn category. He wasn't nicknamed "NoFacts" for nothing.

12. I don't agree with his political opinions, I meant

he has sources who usually know what is going on.

9. Based on this projection - link

I find it interesting/odd that this summary says California is too close to call.

13. congress.org

They have a pledge vote on their site and until today we were way ahead. I think the republicans must have posted the site on a major blog site. Please go to site congress.org and pledge your vote.

Thanks.
