The Rasmussen Reports has updated its Electoral College vote projections. They now have Kerry 228, Bush 192 and Toss-up 118. Since August 9, nine votes have moved into the "Toss-up" category.

Meanwhile, in Colorado, Amendment 36, which would replace the winner-take-all system of apportioning electors by a proportional system, achieved enough signatures to make it onto the November ballot. If the amendment passes, Colorado will be the first state to have a completely proportional distribution of its Electoral College votes. Nebraska and Maine have a semi-proportional system.
