http://www.electoral-vote.com/ (291 to 247) and www.slate.com (276 to 262) are both
currently predicting that Kerry will win based on current polls.

Most polls, including the New York Times, Time, Newsweek, Zogby, and
Rasmussen have the two candidates in a statistical tie. ABC News gives
Kerry a slight lead (50% to 47%), while a Fox News poll gives Bush
(49% to 47%) a slight edge A recent Gallup/CNN/USA Today poll appears
way out in right field, with an 8 point lead for Bush. The Gallup
polls are almost always skewed to the right when compared to other
national polls.
