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.
The majority of the detail in these polls is just plain useless. Trends are good, but details are too fuzzy. If by any miracle O manages to stay close to R and not drop by a lot by the time elections get here, which is doubtful, R wins because the undecideds will, as always, vote against the incumbent president, O. After all, they know O well, and if they are undecided still, it's for a reason... like not wanting to admit their opposition because of the lengths that liberal media went to brand everyone who opposes Obama a racist.
ak - logically polls are more accurate than stale voter rolls if the polls are done properly. . richter - your riddles are weak. a recent poll if done correctly can be far more accurate than years old voter rolls. My argument with some of the current polls is the fact they are over representing dems in the sample size. By 7-11 points. so if the polls show more repubs than dems or an even amount... than the polls are validating my thesis about the polls over sampling dems in polls.
For those unaware elected presidents win re re election 74 % of the time Presidents during a time of war won re election 100 % of the time
