The only difference I have with this map is that I would place Florida leaning red, and I would place North Carolina as firmly red.
A few days before the first Presidential debate seems like a good time to look at the electoral map, which, at least according to the opinion pollsters, is moving in the direction of Obama and the Democrats. In almost all of the competitive states where the election will be decided, recent surveys show Barack Obama widening his lead, moving ahead, or closing on Mitt Romney. With two hundred and seventy votes in the electoral college needed for victory, projections based on recent polling show the President winning at least three hundred votes, and possibly quite a few more.
