Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) December 15, 2011

270toWin, an interactive website for the 2012 presidential election, announces the release of the 270toWin app for the Apple iPad. This new educational resource allows users to create and save detailed Electoral College projections as well as view maps from prior elections and state voting histories. The app is available in iTunes.

Interest in the Electoral College has only grown since the 2000 election, the first in living memory where the winner of the popular vote lost. Although it is early, 2012 is shaping up to be another competitive election, with many states in-play. The 270toWin app lets users game out any number of electoral scenarios (e.g., one for each prospective challenger to President Obama). Alternately, one could create and save a projection every week to see how their thinking evolves as the election nears. The app is always available it can be used in the classroom, on a plane, or at the beach, whether an Internet connection is available or not.

Much of the inspiration for this app comes from the use of hand-held whiteboards by television anchors and political commentators, said Allan Keiter, founder of 270toWin. These boards often are used to display the key to an election. Now, in 2012, with tablet technology and the 270toWin app, anyone can map out critical electoral scenarios in their own hands.

The 270toWin app was developed by Whats Up Interactive.
