I lie how Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson are at -1% in DC.

12% - seems about right to me

what's crazy is almost 105,000 voted on democratic side and only 45,000 voted on Republican side.

Consider the possibility that a % of the votes are not actually a card-carrying Democrats/Republicans; while Democrats outnumbers Republicans, Independents/non-affiliated far outnumber both. I'd venue to guess that an average independent (in the sense that someone is more interested in a person rather than a a party and not necessarily anti-Establishment) would be more attracted to Obama's snake oil than anybody else.

Too bad they're missing out on the real thing- Paul's prescription.

Someone needs to hit this poll the moment that it changes on the 25th, to see if it is pre-loaded...

I do not believe McFly has internet support, lookup the number of meetups for him...

It was. They showed McCain as the default winner of every state. Only when Ron Paul's name is clicked, it minimizes McCain's 100%. I was one of the first ones to vote.

i also think the 12% for Paul is wrong, but it never moves at all, even when he had 8 states.
