The swing county that will tell us what moved. its also a new way of showing our new technology where we have a lot more stuff from 04 to 08. the big one here in florida is hillsborou hillsborough, its the tampa area. theres the blue square that represents what president obama did. he carried it in 2008. its a county that he actually flipped. and when you see, you see not much moved from blue to red when he flipped in 04. bush carried that by kerry and obama won it. its one of the counties that ...
