TPM map 303-191

According to this latest map the only tossups left are FL and NC.

I think thats right on. Those two states will not be called till very late... but it wont matter. Obama has more than enough without them. However, it would be so sweet to win them both. That would make it 347-191. Nice!

I hope that's the strategy in GOTV efforts.

No one is relaxing or giving up. All I see out there are people fired up to win everywhere. We want to bury them, not just beat them.

Many on this board and elsewhere have been trying to warn us not to get complacent. I just dont see that happening with regular Dem voters. Of course there are always those that dont vote due to apathy or being too busy but thats a different issue.

there is an actual life or death issue at stake that many people can understand - Obamacare and pre-existing condition coverage is on the line. Romney would get rid of it. Pretty clear motivating factor for many Democrates I hope!

I have it at 333 giving him Florida. I wish there were more polls from NC. If I saw at least two polls with Obama up like in VA, I would give it to him but I think we might be behind there by maybe .5. Definitely winnable in NC if indies break for Obama.
