Vote Obama or McCain: Global Electoral College | The Economist

[Owen Densmore]

Kinda nifty:
   http://www.economist.com/vote2008/
.. a world wide vote, even using an electoral college model.  Such a  
huge landslide for Obama .. but then its quite a select audience!

Interesting use of GIS as well.  I wonder how hard it is for their IT  
department to cons up such a critter?!

If the whole world could have voted 60 years ago, Hitler would have been

Is this a Godwin's law violation?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law

Frankly, I don't think 1948 would have been a good election year for Hitler, being 3 years dead and all that.
