2008 Winning combinations for B. Obama - interactive calculator

The default for Iowa is set to "D"; it can, of course, be switched to "T" (tossup). Note: because a tie scenario (269-269) would break in Obama's favor by the Democratically controlled house, Obama's winning minimum is set to 269, rather than 270
