The average of 30 online Electoral College opinion maps (with tossups) is currently:
Obama 253
Romney 190
Tossups 95

There are 14 online Electoral College opinion maps which toss out the tossups and assign all electoral votes to either Obama or Romney, disregarding the margin of error in the polls. The current average (without tossups) is:
Obama 314
Romney 223
Tossups 0

The average of three online Electoral College odds makers (Intrade, Iowa Electronic Markets and Betfair) currently show Obama with a 68% probability of winning and Romney with a 32% probability of winning.
