Clinton 39%, Obama 37%, Edwards 17%.
McCain 37, Romney 32, Huckabee 11%, Giualini 9, Paul 8, Thomson 1%

This doesn't make much sense because in New Hampshire
850,836 total registered voters -- 26% Democratic, 30% Republican, 44% Independent
I'm not sure what kind of a primary they have in New Hampshire, I'm not sure whether the independent votes counted for Paul.

If it's between Hillary and McCain in the end...I'm going to lose all faith in America and never care about politics again.


QUOTE
Based on CNN exit polls, 41% of people who voted for McCain said they DISSAPROVED of the Iraq War. || What. The. Fuck.

McCain is the same guy that said
QUOTE
nothing wrong with US troops staying as many as 100 years in Iraq.

and has been supporting the war since the very beginning.

In addition to all that, Hillary over Obama? Wtf, the exit polls were showing Obama leading by 13%, polls are such bullshit.

    lol, wow, for Paul, no. No, not even close. Not by a long shot. Ha...

    Anyway, Ron Paul aside, in New Hampshire voters in the primary do not have to register Democrat or Republican. They can register as an Independent and choose either one to vote in. Most states do not allow this and require primary voters to register for the party they wanted to vote in. The percentages of democrats, republicans, and independents you point out only indicate the percentage of voters that registered under that affiliation. All of the independents either voted democrat or republican still.

    *rolls eyes* don't worry. Clinton is failing big time and there are rumors that she's going to drop out soon as her funds are running low. Again, just a rumor though. Likely it'll be Huckabee and Obama which I would be happy with. Besides we all know that state is crazy xD *I'm kidding! don't kill me people who live there!*

    Technically, Canada DOES have presidents, just not to run the country. tongue.gif

    Also, these are votes that serve to determine whom will be the candidates running for presidency of each party.

    See and the reason why I posted what I did is because that contradicts what you have said in previous topics that you essentially hold no interest. If you hold interest in it that's great smile.gif

    I hold no interest at all. doesn't mean I shouldn't know something. 1we8.gif

    I hold no interest at all in things like menstruation, yet I'd be in trouble if I never took the time to actually learn about it. thumbsup.gif

    He got over 16,000 votes. Raised the most money, a lot of which came from independents...
    He wasn't even invited to the FOX debate, which set off a lot of alarms because Thompson was, so that hurt him...
    I think he still has a chance, this isn't the end.

    Not to be mean Alex, but I just don't think Paul has enough support for people that are eligible to vote, or people that care enough to actually get off their asses. While his gain in popularity is noticeable, I think it's too late for him really.

    And instead of being in the Fox debate, he ended up on Jay Leno last night.
