Go to either www.isbarackobamathepresident.com or www.ismittromneythepresident.com for a very interesting site and infographic. Same info but you may feel better going to your candidates site.

I am a visual learner so I like to get information this way. You can hover over balloons and see the state and electoral votes that they think will go to that candidate. Below the toss up states there are little pale gray states that show you which are the toss up states and how many electoral votes they have.

I say very nicely done the guardian and Real Clear Politics.

And of course there is always an app for that.

I just downloaded this but it was recommended by my friend Laurie so I assume it will be good. And I do need this app as we all know that both sides stretch the truth and sometimes downright lies are told. I also think it is truly a sad state of affairs when us critical thinkers have to go through this much work to figure out what the truth really is.

But my challenge to each and everyone one of you is to do just that. Only vote your party line AFTER you have done your research and you know you can stand with that candidate as your leader. It is your responsibility to not only vote but to be as informed a voter as you can be.
