While they show 220-171 for Bush, the numbers don't make sense. The projection of EC is not based just on poll numbers. That is why I have been reading the papers in the various states. They also look at how favorable or unfavorable Bush and Gore are in that state. They look at what other factors may effect turn out in that state. They look at the amount of third party votes, undecided votes, and other factors. Then they make the call. I will continue to make the calls on closer and closer states as the election nears.
