Election-watching
As the midterm elections approach, I am finding myself more and more obsessed with tracking the latest polls and projections, and that has led me back to my old friend from the 2004 election: electoral-vote.com.
I'm not that much of a polling wonk, but I find "Votemaster" Andrew Tanenbaum's site to be almost endlessly fascinating. Besides its signature red-blue map (this year showing predicted Senate results rather than electoral votes), there's insightful analysis of polling techniques, historical information, and links to other resources on the web. All in all, a treasure-trove for anyone interested in the American political process.
