	NOW with David Brancaccio. Politics & Economy. Election 2004. The Search for the Battleground \| PBS
		A swing state is generally defined as a U.S. state that "swings between the two major political parties in presidential elections, making it an attractive campaign target." Within this group, there is the subset of "battleground states," those swing states with a large number of electoral votes.
		Whichever party slate wins becomes the state's electors so that, in effect, whichever presidential ticket gets the most popular votes in a state wins all the electors of that state (with exceptions in Maine and Nebraska where two electors are chosen by statewide popular vote and the remainder by popular vote within each Congressional district).
		The swing states of Illinois and Texas were key to the outcome of the 1960 election; however, today Illinois, New York, and Texas are not considered swing states.
