	Why is Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District included? Definitely not a state...

	Nebraska divides their electoral votes into 3 districts. Obama won, unusually, one of the districts. Therefore, it is of note. However, Trapper, I'd include, "Nebraka's 2nd Congressional District" as an answer, "'s" at the end of Nebraska didn't work.

	Nebraska's 2nd cong. district could be a good bonus.

	Ahh, thanks for the advice everyone. Just started making quizzes, so I guess I'm still working things out. I like the idea of Nebraska as a bonus since Obama didn't win the whole state, and was a bit torn on how to do it when I made the quiz.

	Interesting quiz but too easy since states can be entered at random and the results are alphabetical, with too much time provided. In other words, entering all the states will result in a completed quiz without testing actual knowledge.

	Too much time. Good idea for a quiz though.

	Noted and changed to randomize answers and lower the time allotment.

	I find it funny that Iowa was considered the 'biggest' win for Obama since it propelled his candidacy, yet it's the least guessed xD.

	Hah, your country is so divided, every time I guessed a state a little bit too far south or too sparsely populated it failed. It's so obvious.

	Regarding chocolate's comment abnout just listing every state, is there any way on sporcle to limit the number of guesses to 29?

	@DragoonKain: while winning the Iowa caucuses was important in getting the nomination, during the general election it was considerably less important. That is often the case with Iowa since by tradition they have the first in the nation caucuses. It's not usually an important state in recent general elections because of its relatively low number of electoral votes and is not considered as much of a swing state as compared to others. Which is not to say it's unimportant but it does make sense it would be among the least guessed.
