Title: How did the following past third party voters vote? Post by: Nichlemn on April 08, 2011, 02:12:32 AM Break them down by Dem/GOP/Other. If Other is significant (e.g. a lot of Nader 2000 voters would have voted for him in 2008), break that down too.

Title: Re: How did the following past third party voters vote? Post by: nclib on April 08, 2011, 08:45:05 PM Obama winning 4% of Thurmond voters is extremely generous. Perhaps, but consider that since the voting age was 21 back then, so every living Thurmond voter in 2008 was at least 81. With such a small sample, and a potential for changing views from youth to old age, it's conceivable. Title: Re: How did the following past third party voters vote?
