After strong performances in three televised debates, Sen. John Kerry has overtaken President Bush in the jackpot swing states of Ohio and New Hampshire, according to a new CNN survey that nonetheless shows Bush clinging to a small lead in the Electoral College.

This site has things looking pretty good for Kerry. Looks like it could be all about Florida again.
This is a pretty intringuing situation too:

District system
The state's electoral votes may be split between candidates. Maine and Nebraska apportion their votes between congressional district and two at-large votes, but neither state has ever split its electoral votes


Pending
Colorado voters will decide on Election Day whether to change from a winner-takes-all approach to one tied to the state's overall popular vote. If approved, Colorado's nine electoral votes would immediately fall under the new system.

Winner-takes-all
All of the state's electoral votes go to the candidate with the most popular votes. Washington D.C. and all of the states, except Maine and Nebraska, currently use this system.
