BTRTN Electoral College Snapshot: Is It the Same Old Song...

...just with a different feeling with Trump and Hillary along?

Yes, there is enough polling -- albeit early -- for us to do our first electoral college snapshot. Not a forecast, or a prediction, just an up-to-date state-by-state view of where the election stands right now. And despite the epic nature of this campaign -- with two incredibly unpopular candidates -- the exercise has an eerily familiar feeling.
