That's a great site.
If you're in the computer industry you may be familiar with the guy
who is the "Votemaster" - Andrew S. Tanenbaum, author of "Computer
Networks."
But I don't think you looked at the site very carefully.
It shows that if the election were held today, McCain would
defeat Obama 273-254 with 11 electoral votes listed as a tie (toss-up
at this point). And if shows that Clinton would defeat McCain
280-258. (the big difference appears to be Ohio and Florida going
strong for Hillary.)
Great site though. As the elections progress, he does a terrific
job of daily updates.
