Battleground States Poll
Besides  dimpled chads, the enduring legacy of the bitter 2000 presidential election is the division of the country into "red" and "blue" states. If nickels were awarded to every pundit who has pitted a red stater (Republican) against a blue stater (Democrat) since that fateful election, Ann Coulter would surely be Queen Midas. The turf war between the colors rages on in 2004, and this applet from the Wall Street Journal and Zogby Interactive tracks the poll numbers in each battleground state. You can mouse over 16 key states to see how blue and red shift as November draws closer. Click on any of the sweet 16 states to learn about the issues crucial to nabbing that state's electoral votes. If you've forgotten how the Electoral College works, there's a recap along with a quick explanation of what makes a state a "battleground state." Check back every couple of weeks to see the ever-shifting hues of this year's presidential election. (in Politics > U.S. Elections) |
