Looks like Wikipedia on the 2008 election page is predicting a four way race. With Greens winning!

[Bucky]

Green - 183; Purple - 140; Red - 132; Yellow - 86

(Assuming I read that tiny pixel for DC as yellow correctly, of course)

Not sure I buy into it, but it's a hell of an interesting projection. I do wish they'd provided a "key" to this Electoral College map so I could see just what Green candidate is going to carry both California and Texas. Probably only a split ticket on the right can account for this. Looks like we're in a for a wild ride this time.

The color coding is arbitrary. It's just showing how many electoral votes each state gets.
