"To update this very close election, the current state of play is this.
Vice President Bush has 264 electoral votes, Governor Dukakis has 250 electoral votes, with just the states of Montana and Michigan left. If Bush wins Michigan he will be the winner, but Governor Dukakis needs to win both states and those 24 electoral votes still in play to win.
As we understand it at the moment, both states are very close. Michigan with now 89% votes in , Governor Dukakis lead is still holding around the 4,500 mark and in Montana with around 85% of the votes in, Governor Dukakis has a lead of around only 1,200 votes.".
