I'm not sure it's accurate, but I like it

I like to check Electoral-vote.com pretty regularly.  They take polls from around the country and show what the electoral college votes would be based on those polls.  They also project a final map using regression analysis.  Today, I was very pleased to see that after weeks of Bush holding a commanding lead, today’s map shows that if the election were held today, Bush would get 264 votes and Kerry would get 253.  270 are needed to win.

However, what really struck me was the Projected Final Map.  Because I’m pretty sure it’s a hoax or a hack, I took a screen shot.  Click here to see what I saw.

That was if we were living in a sane world...clearly must be an anomaly.

Don’t forget what happens if neither candidates gets 270 electoral votes---it goes to the Republican-controlled House.

Seriously? If you are joking, the joke is weak, so I have to take you at face value.

The screenshot says that Kerry is getting all of the electoral votes, including 98% of the vote in Texas.  Look at the text, not the coloring of the map.

Old-ish news probably but someone hacked the site and changed the projected page.
