Swingometer is my favorite tool for projecting elections these days, but when it comes to the Presidential election, we all like to run our own scenarios. Not wanting to give up that traffic to other sites, I was obligated to write my own Create your own Electoral College tool.
Enjoy!
We all knew it was coming, and finally it’s here. The Swingometers have been updated. The House Swingometer includes the 2010 results as a new baseline, and the Electoral College Swingometer includes the 2010 Census-based reapportionment.

When I get confirmed numbers on reapportionment I will prepare an update of the Electoral College Swingometer with the new Electoral College.
It is likely I will also take the opportunity to update Swingometer on iOS to look nicer on higher resolution displays such as those on the iPhone 4 and the iPad.
To join the House Swingometer I’ve now added the Electoral College Swingometer.
Obviously we need the 2010 Census to complete before we will know the actual makeup of the 2012 Electoral College, but for now I use the 2008 numbers.
