California, New York, Vermont, Mass and Rhode Island.

That's all the states Kerry will get.  And he still might not take California.

That can't be right!  I was watching CNN and they said that Bush did horrible in the debate and that Kerry won...I expect masses of people to change their opinions and support Kerry now

The author of site just changed how he calculates the polling data.  Instead of using the latest poll, he's averaging the polls over the last  7 days.  So that means half the data figured into the map is pre-debate data.  So don't rejoice just yet.

Going back to 1984, the concensus winner of the first debate, according to national polls, was:

1984: Walter Mondale
1988: Michael Dukakis
1992: Ross Perot
1996: Bill Clinton
2000: Al Gore
2004: Dukakis II, Electric Bugaloo (Thanks Raven)

Ask Presidents Mondale, Dukakis, Perot, and Gore: How important are the debates?

You should also note that in the polls on who won the debate, the data shows something like 77% of those surveyed claimed to have watched the debate. Right.

Assuming the polls are correct, this is good news, because it shows that most voters are voting on the issues rather than on public speaking.  IMO, Kerry won the debate big time, because he looked viably presidential, something he had not earlier been able to do.

Still can't believe TN went pink! Oh well as long as Bush wins the big picture I guess I can live with pink. At least it's not blue or white/blue

Dammit, Ohio still isn't solid!

Electionprojection.com, which is more pro-Bush, still has it at 243/295.  Maybe they just haven't updated.

I don't care what the map says now.  We cannot allow Kerry to get in under any conditions.  Keep promoting Bush and fighting Kerry.  I will keep fighting even after Nov 2 if necessary.

IEM has Bush Futures at $.58. Intrade has Bush Futures at $.60. Peope who are putting money on the election are betting solidly on Bush.

Intrade has Republican sweep futures (Republicans win Presidency, retain House and Senate) trading at $.59. Democratic Sweep Futures are currently trading at $.01. That's right: One cent.

How close is it in Californistan? And if Bush gets on a roll early on election night, will the time differential in the pacific result in victory there?

Polls going back to May show a consistent about 50% Kerry, 40% Bush breakdown for Cali. Even a big Bush roll early election night will probably not swing Cali.

[LiberalBiasModeOn] This can't be true! No, no, no, this is false data! Ohhhhhhh, the humanity! CBS news as well as CNN assured me this morning that the race is now a statistical dead heat! I mean who cares if they used a Newsweek poll to reach that conclusion? And forget about the fact they didn't count state by state electoral votes! We all know the popular vote is what really counts. I can't believe you shameless neo-cons would dispute the findings of Newsweek! [/LiberalBiasModeOff]

On a side note, the Pew poll showed the race hasn't changed at all since prior to the debate. They still have Bush up by 7 or 8 points. What's up with that? I thought Pew was supposed to be the poll most biased toward Kerry?

Ask Richard Nixon of the 1960 Presidential Election on how a Presidential Debate can be.
He came out bad.  People who listened to the Debate on the radio say he won it.  People who saw the Debate on TV gave Kennedy (the Good Kennedy, by the way), the election.

Your point? That was the very first Presidential debate to be televised. In the last 20 years, Presidential debate winners have not done particularly well.

Just wanted to put this back on page one for awhile.

Note:... none of it matters if we don't vote.  Hell, I'm paranoid enough to believe that the enemy skews the numbers in our favor so we relax and don't vote.

Slate (definitely not pulling for Bush) is showing an electoral map of Bush 348, Kerry 190

slate.msn.com/id/2107683/

Having said that, it only counts if all the people who feel like that actually show up and vote.
