[sarcasm]This is shockingSad/sarcasm]



Obama 269
McCain 260
Tossup 9

Iowa tipped Obama to an electoral tie, and Colorado put him over the top.

This map is eerily similar to 2000.  The electoral map hasn't changed all that much.
This is the Nevada/NH swing from 2000 that produces the tie many thought could happen this year.

This kinda proves how possible the tie really was.  Had the election been 49.6 -49.4 McCain, it probably would have been a tie, according to this.

I was surprised that Iowa was at the center.

Based solely on the last 3 elections, Iowa looks like the current bellweather.
