>>>So, I look at Maine and it says that there are 2 votes for Obama and 1 for McCain and there is a check next to Obama's name indicating he won the state. I'm looking at other states and the numbers just don't make sense either. Why have such a slick tool if the results are screwy?

It's quite simple. Three people voted, out of the total of 150 registered, not confused by robo-calls, and generally accountable voters. Three out of 150, that's 2%. Two of them voted this way, the third voted that way.

Can't be simpler, can it?
