Kerry/Edwards poised to get 384 electoral votes in a landslide
Advertisements [?]
Edited on Wed Jul-07-04 03:25 PM by TruthIsAll
I used this site for current polling numbers:
http://www.electoral-vote.com/

I downloaded them into Excel, where I have the latest 3 years
DEm/Rep totals state by state. I adjusted the Kerry numbers by
adding 70% of the undecided, defined as the difference
(100%-Kerry-Bush) in each state.

Kerry is poised to get 384 Electoral votes in a landslide. The
key states to watch: AZ, WV, LA, VA, NC. If Kerry pulls ahead
in two of these states, Bush is TOAST. 
 
AdjK% = Current Kerry poll adjusted for 70% of undecideds
(which have gone 60-80% historically for the challenger)

CCG= Dem % of Total votes in last 3 elections (Clinton,
Clinton, Gore) vs. Repub (3rd parties excluded). 

The Dems got 52.6% vs. the Repukes 47.4% over the last 3
elections. 

The Kerry numbers are conservative (expect them to increase
by 2%), as they do not reflect:
1-Edwards
2-Plame indictments
3-Dem convention
4-Fahrenheit 9/11

* refers to Battleground state
