Title: 2010 Congressional Swingometer Post by: Harry Hayfield on November 04, 2009, 07:26:14 PM As I think everyone is beginning to realise, 2010 will see the first UK / US double header since 1992 (when a UK election and a US election are held in the same year) and as such it will not be long before we Brits have these devices coming out of our ears
() I would like to know if there is anyone who is slightly more expert at online graphics who could create a similar graphic for the US elections if I was to supply them with a spreadsheet ranking the 2008 results by swing needed to gain?
