ElectionRemix is a tool that lets
everyone have access to the same election modeling techniques used by media and political

Hacker Abstract: Look, it's your very own FiveThirtyEight.
I'm Kyle Hill (GitHub, Twitter, Email) and I slapped together ElectoralRemix for the 2012 Washington Post Election Hackathon. It's pretty quick and rather dirty, but I'll can put some UX spit-shine on it if there's any interest.
I blogged for a while about this project, and the source is up on GitHub.
