Murkowski and Thune are "barely GOP" while Dodd is safe... no thanks.

Lawl. Why even have that map if you're just going to show 2004 election results with it?

Thanks for explaining their methodology. This looked full-on Dick Morris-type crazy without that.
   "1.   The most recent poll in every state is always used.
   2. If no other polls were taken within a week of the most recent one, only the most recent poll counts.
   3. If one or more polls were taken within a week of the most recent, all of them are averaged, weighted equally."

I suppose most races haven't been polled yet so (just as on this site's poll aggregator, btw) the previous result is used as the base.

That brings me to the other option... they're posting articles but haven't started updating the map yet.

In which case the question, "why post the map at all?", is of course a pertinent one. Smiley
