which countries would vote for Romney, and which countries would vote for Obama?


Obama would obviously win. He would probably win almost every country, but which ones would vote for Romney? I can't think of any! Obama would also dominate Western Europe!

What do you guys think?

Romney would win Pakistan. That's probably it.

I think that only Israel, Poland, India and maybe the Phillippines would go for Romney, as President Bush was actually viewed somewhat favorably in those countries.

Maxwell's right. And if you disagree, you are probably forgetting Mitt Romney's foreign trip during the campaign last July.

Based on polls at the time, Romney would win only in Pakistan, Israel, and Georgia.

Then there would be more votes than humans in the world because of all the corruption overseas.

I have posted several polls that were conducted before the election in many countries:

Romney was ahead I think in Albania/Kosovo, Israel, Pakistan (but with 90% undecided), Vietnam (or was that McCain ?), Cambodia (or was that McCain ?) and Georgia.

That's about it.

Obama was leading everywhere else.

Obama would win Australia and New Zealand, although if you broke down the Australian states by vote, Romney would win Western Australia, Queensland and possibly the Northern Territory.

If those numbers are accurate (a big if), Obama would probably be leading in every state and territory by large margins.
