    Will Mccain lose his own state?

    (CNN) "? Some tough news for John McCain in his own backyard, as his home state of Arizona moves from "safe McCain"? to "lean McCain"? in the latest CNN poll of polls.

    And the Republican nominee continues to lose ground in reliably-red areas, as North Dakota moves from "lean McCain"? to "toss-up"? ? meaning three electoral votes that had been counted for McCain are now considered up for grabs.

    But there's some good news for McCain down south: Louisiana has moved from "lean McCain"? to "safe McCain."? And the movement on the map is far from done.

    Barack Obama now leads McCain by 131 electoral votes, up from his 128-vote lead yesterday. CNN now estimates that if the presidential election were held today, Obama would win 291 electoral votes and John McCain 160. There are 87 electoral votes up for grabs. Again, 270 electoral votes are needed to win the White House.

    I can't find the website right now because I can't remember it but it compiles several polls from around the country. If the election were held today, it has Obama winning 96.3% of the time.
