FiveThirtyEight.com

I recently found a new web site that gives amazing charts, graphs, blogs, poll numbers, etc. for this election that I wanted to share. FiveThirtyEight.com is a site developed by Nate Silver that was made “to accumulate and analyze polling and political data in way that is informed, accurate and attractive. Most narrowly, to give you the best possible objective assessment of the likely outcome of upcoming elections.” It’s given the name FiveThirtyEight because that is how many electors there are in the electoral college, 538.

I have never seen so many numbers on one page! You can see state-by-state polling numbers for the presidential election as well as races for the Senate. It gives probably every poll out there. It really is pretty cool and useful if you enjoy numbers.
