Data love, again
Via Bitch PhD comes a lovely and exceedingly geeky electoral-college and poll-watching site, Five Thirty Eight (named, of course, for the total number of electoral votes.)
I love it.
So far, I really love this post, about the Bradley Effect and the so-called "Reverse Bradley Effect" (summary -- the former doesn't exist anymore. The latter -- Obama substantially outperforming his polls, in a way correlating with African-American population -- appears to, but only in the South), and this one which is a real thing of beauty analyzing the potential effects of increased turnout among young and African-American voters.
