Hey AK where did you get this baloney there were more Dems that Republicans. I need to challenge all statements made by pro obama people. From two different sources I just read there were more Republicans, than democrats. You are citing polls which have ridiculous skews. For instance... Rassmuesen found. During March, 36.4% of Americans considered themselves Republicans while 33.4% were Democrats. I have also seen comments on threads stating there are more Republicans than dems.
So far the difference I am seeing is that there are some old stats based on party registration but the new ones based on party identification seem to say there are more republicans than dems. If that is true that would explain why we all sense Obama is going to get crushed and why these polls seem to by lying.
May 15, 2012 Americans See Obama as Solid Favorite to Win Election Fifty-six percent think Obama will win; 36% think Romney will by Jeffrey M. Jones PRINCETON, NJ -- Fifty-six percent of Americans think Barack Obama will win the 2012 presidential election, compared with 36% who think Mitt Romney will win. Democrats are more likely to believe that Obama will win than Republicans are to believe Romney will. Independents are nearly twice as likely to think that Obama, rather than Romney, will prevail. SKEWED! Criminals!
The reason I don't like this post is that I fear what I would call "Patriot" syndrome. The New England Patriots had gone 16-0 during the regular season. Going to the Superbowl was merely a formality..........
Registering GOP is an IQ test. We need to know where to divert the sterility chems in the drinking water. GOP favored polls are legit and DEM favored polls are lying? That's your angle? FWIW, I am a registered nonpartisan. I've never voted for Obama and will not do so in 2012.
Dec 2011 USA today http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/story/2011-12-22/voters-political-parties/52171688/1 Registered Democrats still dominate the political playing field with more than 42 million voters, compared to 30 million Republicans and 24 million independents A few states http://elkodaily.com/democrats-outp...cle_a53e09de-a78b-11e1-ae8e-001a4bcf887a.html Democrats outpace GOP in voter registrations CARSON CITY (AP) â Nevada Democrats outpaced Republicans in new voter registrations leading up to the state primary. The secretary of state's office Friday reports that from May 1 through May 22 when primary registration closed, Democrats registered 4,322 active voters, compared with 2,254 registered by Republicans. The number of active registered nonpartisans increased by 2,544 during the same time period. Statewide, Democrats now hold a 38,792 voter advantage over Republicans. But the gap is far less than the 100,000 voter edge Democrats had going into the 2008 general election. http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/state/gop-closes-in-on-democrats-in-florida-voter-2107649.html Jan. 17, 2012 Figures released by the Division of Elections today show Florida has 11.2 million voters, with 40.5 percent registered as Democrats and about 36.2 percent as Republicans. The gap of 4.3 percentage points between Democratic and Republican registrations compares to a 5.8-point gap that favored Democrats heading into the 2008 presidential election. http://www.pagop.org/2012/01/as-parties-lose-voters-republicans-chip-away-at-democrats-advantage/ Pennsylvania-January 20th, 2012 In November 2006, Democrats held a roughly 600,000-voter edge with 3.9 million registered voters to the Republicansâ 3.3 million. The number now stands at 4.1 million Democrats to 3 million Republicans. The 2012 election will come down to turnout, he said. With a margin that still tops 1.1 million, Democrats have a huge advantage if they can motivate those voters to show up at the polls. But by narrowing that advantage, Republicans put more pressure on the turnout effort, he said.
And that's about what it boils down to. That's why I want things to be close in October. Obama with a 40 point lead going into November might mean a defeat.
The thing is the polls with more dems aren't rigged to have more dems,the samples just have more registered democrats because there are more registered democrats GOP favored polls are actually rigged to take out democrats and add republicans
