About this Site
270towin.com is an interactive Electoral College map for 2012 and a history of Presidential elections in the United States. Since electoral votes are generally allocated on an "all or none" basis by state, the election of a U.S President is about winning the popular vote in enough states to achieve 270 electoral votes, a majority of the 538 that are available. It is not about getting the most overall popular votes, as we saw in the 2000 election, when the electoral vote winner (Bush) and the popular vote winner (Gore) were different. Contact Us:

ok..the facts on the {born alive infant protection act}…………..it is a fact that obama voted to deny medical care to infants that survived an abortion.he said it would be……………” a burden on the doctors”……….and that he thought it would be a law that was intended to “undermine the womans ” decision to have an abortion………..im sure obama doesnt call it infanticide….but I think the word is very accurate……..once the baby is out side the womb …and breathing….it clearly becomes a human with legal protections………..,with the help of the main stream media……obama has yet to be taken to task for this position…….even the ultra liberal barbara boxer of california called this inhumane………..my opinion is that if you let a baby die in a closet without medical care…………..its murder…..there is simply no amount of political spin that makes this even remotely ok…………
Mark… ouch…. sounds even stronger than I thought…. “burden on the docs”… wow…. it seems sure to me that Obama would be hurt by an ad campaign highlighting his PBA support and his stand on the “Born Alive Infant Protection Act” (what a name – so very appropriate).
I totally concur with your opinion that putting a baby in a closet to die is murder and I can’t help but think that the majority of Americans would agree also if educated via an ad campaign. Even with just a stick figure sanitized graphic, the typical American would surely be disgusted to think of a baby being fully delivered except for the head and then having its brains sucked out. Unfortunately Obama and Biden will still get to vote to reject pro-life supreme court justices nominees even when defeated. I think future generations may well look back on our 38MM baby deaths as having been more barbaric than Nazi Germany’s 6MM Jews killed.
270 red states seems to be looking like a better possibility to me now… if McCain takes the big red leaners (OH, FL, VA & MO that seem like probable red states) and can snatch either WI or MN…. he can then cede NM, NV, IA, CO and PA and still end up exactly at 270.
So two observations…..
1) Can you imagine the dem wailing if the EV goes 270 McCain with the dems winning the popular vote for the second time in one decade?
2) Kudos to the GOP for holding the convention in the swing state of MN.
Just think if it goes like that other topic here and it appears to be a tie in the Electoral College but Obama takes that 1 vote in Nebraska. Or in a less likely scenario where Nebraska goes all for McCain but he managed to get 1 vote from Maine. That would be interesting.
The Republicans may go after Minnestota to try to keep Al Frankin out of the Sentate.
