Election Law @ Moritz has done it again, publishing an indispensable guide to potential election law litigation in the 2008 election. Check out this interactive map, which reminds me of a weather map. (In my mind, I hear my local weatherman stating: “There’s a 40% chance of scattered litigation beginning over the Rockies, and spreading to the midwest by Election Day.”)
Here’s how Moritz describes the project:

Today EL@M publishes extensive new research concerning the legal issues surrounding the 2008 presidential election. The project features an interactive web chart and database that allows the user to perform side-by-side comparisons of 44 critical legal questions across 17 key states. The project also allows the user to access the same information in a more visual way be viewing 44 interactive US maps that are color coded to faciliate analysis and discussion. Finally, the project includes an interactive map that allows the user to see our analysis of the states most likely to experience election-related litigation prior to November. All of these maps and charts allow the user to see more detailed factual and legal research, including citations, by clicking through to the heart of our database. The executive summary of the project may be found here.
