Title: Jimmy McMillan Post by: FEMA Camp Administrator on October 31, 2010, 02:29:18 PM Does anyone know how well McCmillan is polling? The poll on this childboard says that there's 0% support for Independents, so does anyone have any different data?
Title: Re: Jimmy McMillan Post by: Obnoxiously Slutty Girly Girl on October 31, 2010, 02:39:30 PM McMillan only got 0.30% in 2006; he'll probably improve on that showing, but not by a whole lot.
Only an extremely minuscule percentage of the population actually watches debates; I still haven't been able to find a video of it online. And I don't think McMillan has much name recognition besides those familiar with the debate.

Title: Re: Jimmy McMillan Post by: Sprouts Farmers Market ✘ on November 01, 2010, 04:45:22 PM I would hope some New Yorkers watch the news or at least SNL to wonder who this guy is. I think he could eclipse at least 1%.
I keep hearing that the Freedom Party has polled well as a third party, but I don't generally look at NYS gubernatorial polls since it is fairly obvious. |
