1. Some you may want to add ...

Talking Point Memo just released their new "Poll Tracker" - so not really a Electoral Vote tally, but a state-by-state polling list:

Dave Leip's been pretty accurate in the past. BUT it's a bit confusing because he assigns BLUE to Repubicans, and RED to DEMOCRATS

And Princeton U. just started a new one - not much detail, but a running tab:

5. Similarity of Projections

Almost all the Electoral College projections are basically the same, whether it's Huffington Post, CNN, New York Times, etc.

Eg. they almost all say that Obama is favored in NM, NV, CO, PA etc., Romney is favored in IN, NC, MO etc., and that states like FL, OH etc are tossups.

They all seem to give Obama a 50-70 vote EV lead.

The one that gives Obama the biggest EV win at the moment appears to be Princeton:

Obama: 312

Romney: 226
