Politics
 

I know there is a lot of discussion here about politics, especially the Presidential race...I was wondering if you could help me out with some links of decent sites..I have to write a paper on the presidential election and it has to analyze the race in a swing state..which I happen to be from one and am doing my paper on it, Pennsylvania. It has to include:

1. Compile in detail and compare each presidential campaign's activities in the state, such as candidate appearances, surrogate speakers, state-specific ads and campaign contributions from that state(PA)

2. The Polls: follow the relative positions of the candidates in public opinion polls in PA. What events account for the changes in the polls?

3. Important debates: Evaluate the performance of the candidates in televised debates between the presidential and vice presidential candidates. Make an argument for a winner or loser in each of those debates.

4. Describe the various constinuency groups of each candidate in that state. Elaborate specifically upon significant endorsements.

5. Explain the outcome. What are the cheif factors influencing the winning candidate's victory.

I would appreciate any help I can get with this. Thanks
