States in 2008 election
so I am doing a project on the election in school, I need to explain one crucial state in the election and a swing state. Any good idea for that?
I was thinking PA for the important state and indiana for the swing state, is that good?
thanks, Jamie

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
I would pick Florida for important state and Ohio for swing state. They both have a large number of electoral votes, and they're both somewhat divided in the polls (though Obama leads significantly in both). Ohio also has a notable history of being a swing state.
Indiana is fine, but I wouldn't pick PA, Obama is guaranteed their votes. If you want to pick a state that Obama will undoubtedly win, choose California, they have a massive 55 electoral votes.

Go with Virginia. Trust me on this one. It's notoriously Republican but is swinging Obama's way to the point he's favored to take it. Look on cnn.com/politics and click on the electoral map.
It shows states not fully shaded red or blue that can swing either way. But if you go with what I suggested your marks may be higher as its on people's minds.
