Check out http://www.electoral-vote.com, which is a data-driven analysis of the coming election on a state-by-state basis. Information about the site is tucked away but it comes off as the clearest and simplest message about the progress of the campaigns and the leanings of the states yet. Thanks to my friend Jeff for pointing it out.

And my friend Derrick writes with another fantastic site:
know it, but this is the one you want: http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/
Wow, there is great stuff out there now. I wonder whether there is a window in which this kind of information aggregation and presentation can be freely effective before it becomes factored into the “market” of electoral behavior and loses its predictive qualities.
