Number Of Voters In 2008 Presidential Election

Julio Said:

Why has the approval index for Barry Obama dropped from +28 to +6?

We Answered:

Barack needs new script writers for his role as President, the ones he used to get elected aren't writing good enough any more......Obama is just playing the part of president...I think he wanted to be lincoln in the school play but didn't get the part so now he is pretending to be Lincoln in real life.

Voting Principles 101... (I have not made up my mind, so please DON'T try to sway my decision in your reply,)

We Answered:

Delegates are for primaries... electors are for the presidential election.

In most states, the winner of the poular vote decides which electors are sent to actually vote for President. In some states, electors are legally bound to vote for the person they're told to vote for. However, I think that in all cases, electors are chosen for loyalty to the candidate... it is VERY rare for an elector to cast a ballot in a manner other than how they're instructed.

I suspect, to beomce an elector, that a person would need to have been active within their party for some time, enough to become known to the state (if not national) party leaders.

How you are registered to vote doesn't matter... Democrat, Republican, third party, or independent. It's the votes cast that determine who gets sent as electors.

Why wait for Tuesday for election results when GUAM is at the polls TODAY?

We Answered:

GENE ; You lit a big fire on this one, can we give your first
answer a puppy, apparently Change and Hope has got to
her. But anyway I digress, Guam is a Island I have many
times sat down on. Refueling stop on the way to the Nam
and Thailand, Kadena Air Base and I have shared many
a toddy shall we so say. Love the People there. they are
dedicated and loyal and should be a state, as should P.R.
and Somoa.

White voters could abandon Obama : A big hope for Mc Cain?

We Answered:

~~ I agree. You should say it loud and clear at let everyone on your job, neighbor, children school, church, mail man etc. etc know that you're a proud racist. You should say it loud and clear. I CAN'T VOTE FOR OBAMA BECAUSE HE'S BLACK! Hopefully, God has different plan this years. It's his will not man. I am so glad 18 million plus voters do want Senator Obamas as our next president. Yes. We will have die heart bigots like you but I hope we wilhave more who bleive in UNITY and a better better for ALL races not just for white folks. ~~

Rosa Said:

47% nationwide.

Dale Said:

Will the election trends from 2000 and 2004 carry on to 2008?

We Answered:

I sure hope so. Only time will tell. Even with clear trends, there always some data points that are outliers.

Salvador Said:

Does it really make a difference if Giuliani's daughter supports Obama for Pres?

We Answered:

I does not matter to me in the slightest way. It will, however, be used against him. Some will have the feeling that if he cannot win over his own daughter that he has been a poor father and that she knows things about him that are not nice.

I hope that people doe not fall for that, but consider him on his own merits or demerits.
