CNN Election Map

I absolutely love playing around with the CNN Election Map. It's incredibly simple, political, and totally pointless - exactly why I love it. Give it a try and waste a few minutes trying to predict tomorrows election results. Can Mitt win without Ohio? Can Obama sweep the swing states? Who knows, but tonight is the last time you'll be able to decide which way each state swings before the results come pouring in tomorrow evening.

Here are my swing state predictions:
Nevada - Obama
Colorado - Obama
Iowa - Romney
Wisconsin - Romney
Ohio - Obama
Virginia - Obama
Massachusetts - Obama (ouch! Romney gets burned in his "home state")
Florida - Romney

Total Obama = 287 electoral college votes
Total Romney =  251 electoral college votes

Welcome President Obama to another 4 years!!
