My modified Zogby has Kerry beating Bush in 14 out of the 16
possible scenarios involving the 4 in-play states FL, OH, CO
and NV.
Bear with me - this is an Excel spreadsheet I threw together
based on the Zogby 5pm EST Electoral College call.
Zogby has K=264 and B=213 not including Florida, Ohio,
Colorado and Nevada. http://www.zogby.com/
Flip a coin 4 times (for Zogby's 4 in-play states: FL, OH, CO
and NV) and there are 16 (ie, 2 times 2 times 2 times 2)
possible outcomes.
The only 2 outcomes in the 16 where Bush wins are:
- Bush takes all four in-play states: FL, OH, CO and NV
- Bush takes FL, OH, CO - and Kerry only takes NV (tie - goes
to B)
The other 14 outcomes have Kerry winning!
