Keep Score!

Here's a fun file for keeping score of the election yourself on a Cartogram:

You just put a D or R in the gray boxes, and the "map" colors itself. First time I've ever seen a real raster GIS in a spreadsheet. Interesting idea!

What source are you guys using to get official voting results? When do you decide to "color in the state"? I think I'd rather keep track on the internet than the tv programs.
