Overwhelmingly Kerry and Lieberman. :shrug:

1. Big surprise

Least threatening to Bush

2. Look at the rest of it - VERY-very-very telling!

3. But it did get me that...

Even Dr. Dean and Al Sharpton got votes...as write-ins on the REPUB primary ballot!:crazy:

Do they think it would've counted toward OUR primary's vote total....or do they really resent what Dub has done to their party's image THAT much!? :eyes:

B-)

5. I'm seriously beginning to wonder if many Repubs are just as fed-up

with the Moron as we Dems. After all, they're suffering too.

4. If they lost 4% nationwide, that would be 4 million votes !

That would kill Bush and the Repubs!

6. It was a hell of a lot more than 4 percent.

In 2000, the turnout was about 150,000.

This time around, the turnout was about 220,000.

7. only 74 voters though

4% of the sample is only 74 voters. Is that a significant sample size?? (really a question, I don't know if it is or not).

8. There Are Always Crossovers, But . . .

the secrect this election is that Democratic crossovers to Bush will be almost nil. At least from polling results, Bush has less support among Democrats than Clinton did among Republicans.

9. They were trying to skew the polls plain and simple.

They don't have to vote for a republican since they know that Bush will be their nominee. So they go and try to throw the balance off on the Democratic primary. I'm surprised they didn't vote for Dean. That's who they have their marching orders to vote for.

Go Clark!

10. You can thank Jay Severin for the conservative/republican Kerry votes

if anybody else ever listens to that guy in New England you know why.

He's the biggest local radio show in New England, and he's an ultra-elitist snob. Which explains why although he despises liberals and liberalism, he treats Kerry with respect and despises Clark. Because since Clark grew up poor, he's less of a patriot and really a human to the guy than any middle class or rich soldiers
