MAXIMUS POWERS Posted February 6, 2008 Why 'No comment' Ms. Cynicism! Doesn’t the state of European political affairs sicken you! America might be invading other countries around the world. But it’s a much better society to live in. I don’t feel wanted in Europe anymore. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rudy-Diiriye Posted February 8, 2008 here is the outcome. jb, may be u should pay attention to american politics and learn how democracy works...lol Super Tuesday by the Numbers It’s been more than 24 hours since the Super Tuesday polls closed, but analysts are still sifting through the reams of data to come out of the 22 Democratic and 21 Republican primaries and caucuses. Here’s a quick rundown of the Feb. 5 numbers that matter, drawn from various news sources as well as our own calculators. Turnout 27 percent of eligible citizens voted. Dems: At least 15,417,521 GOP: At least 9,181,297 Source: Time Delegate Count After tearing our hair out over how media outlets can’t agree on the post-Super Tuesday delegate count, we’ll go with the Associated Press delegate tracker. It's super-detailed, updated frequently, and seems to get the most deference from news organizations. Here’s its most recent estimate: Dems Clinton: 832 Obama: 821 Delegates needed for the nomination: 2,025 GOP McCain: 698 Romney: 278 Huckabee: 192 Delegates needed for the nomination: 1,191 Meanwhile, Obama’s campaign predicts he will end up with 847 delegates to Clinton’s 834. Clinton’s team has not released a specific prediction. Superdelegate Count Total superdelegates: 796 Supporting Clinton: 213 Supporting Obama: 139 Source: AP State Count (Feb. 5) Dems Clinton: Ariz., Ark., Calif., Mass., N.J., N.M., N.Y., Okla., Tenn. (9 states) Obama: Ala., Alaska, Colo., Conn., Del., Ga., Idaho, Ill., Kan., Minn., Mo., N.D., Utah (13 states) GOP McCain: Ariz., Calif., Conn., Del., Ill., Mo., N.J., N.Y., Okla. (9 states) Romney: Alaska, Colo., Mass., Minn., Mont., N.D., Utah (7 states) Huckabee: Ala., Ark., Ga., Tenn., W.Va. (5 states) Source: CNN Caucus Count (Feb. 5) Clinton: 1 (American Samoa) Obama: 7 (Alaska, Colo., Idaho, Kan., Minn., Mont., N.D.) Huckabee: 0 McCain: 0 Romney: 5 (Alaska, Col., Minn., Mont., N.D.) Popular Vote Dems Clinton 48.97 percent (6,967,302) Obama 48.04 percent (6,835,447) Difference in terms of actual votes: 131,855 Source: NBC GOP McCain: 43.2 percent (3,657,444) Romney: 35.5 percent (3,001,607) Huckabee: 21.4 percent (1,809,404) Source: Calculated using data from NBC Relative Turnout In the 19 states holding both Democratic and Republican primaries and caucuses, more than 14 million people voted for Obama or Clinton. More than 8 million people voted for McCain or Romney or Huckabee. Thus, you could say about 73 percent more Democrats turned out than Republicans. Source: Time In Missouri, Democratic turnout beat GOP turnout by 70 percent. In 2000, when the state also held two primaries, the opposite was true: Republican turnout trumped the Dems’ by 56 percent. Source: HuffPo Exit Polls Obama won 82 percent of the black vote; Clinton won 53 percent of whites and 64 percent of Hispanic voters. Clinton and Obama split white men, while Clinton won white women overwhelmingly. McCain won the majority of self-identified Republican moderates; Romney won 38 percent of self-identified Republican conservatives. Huckabee won 38 percent of evangelical Christians; McCain came in second among these voters, with 30 percent to Romney’s 27 percent. Among Republicans who rated the economy as their top concern, McCain won with 42 percent. Clinton beat Obama among voters who said the economy is in poor condition, while Obama won among those who rated the economy good or excellent. Obama won the youth vote nationwide, with 59 percent of voters under 30, compared with Clinton’s 38 percent. But Clinton won that demographic in California and Massachusetts.
