Election

I have been a little distracted lately with a lot of vacationing and relaxing. Watching the DNC got me fired up about the election though. I am not a big follower of polls, in fact I think we would all be a lot better off if news organizations stopped taking polls all together. I think they influence people too much and they are often inaccurate. Having said that, there is a cool feature at Slate.com that sums up all the polls in different states and nationally and sums up the electoral votes for each state based on their polls. You can check it out here. The New York Times has a similar feature, but I like the one at slate better, it's fun to play around with.
