The
Election Countdown offers individuals a chance to review past elections
and current projections for future elections. This page shows the way each state voted, whether Democratic or Republican, according
to that state's electoral college vote. The Election Countdown has
chosen to start with the 1992 election because that's approximately when
the Internet became public and was open to private businesses.*
The
columns to the left of the page represent each state's number of electoral
votes, and to the right is a
graphical representation of the United States showing how each state voted.
*" In 1993 the U.S. National
Science Foundation, after a competitive bidding process in 1992,
created the InterNIC
to manage the allocations of addresses and management of the address
databases, and awarded the contract to three organizations. Registration
Services would be provided by Network
Solutions; Directory and Database Services would be provided by AT&T;
and Information Services would be provided by General
Atomics. " See document: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/lir-wg/1992/msg00028.html.
