Thanks, Tom

I appreciate the numbers.

Robin Hayes lied. Nobody died, but thousands of folks lost their jobs.

A few things that really stood out to me

1. For President, the state is cut into 3 parts--Triad and Mountains for Edwards, Triangle and NE NC for Obama, Charlotte-SE NC for Clinton.

2. For LG: Dalton has near zero strength among younger voters and really high numbers for older voters. The others are more balanced.

3. For Treasurer: Cowell leads in Urban areas, Young in Rural areas.

looking at it objectivley and using your facts

1. This Does not bode well for Edwards the area you give him as a stength has the least amount of registered Democrats, if he is to win he will have to pick up votes in the other two candidates areas.

2. Older voters are far more likley to vote than younger ones, but this race has high undecides.

3. this one will be close and it is also high undecides.

And Helms begat Reagan...


Arguably, Ronald Reagan's Helms enabled win in the 1976 NC primary was all the encouragement he needed to try again in 1980, setting the stage for the Reagan Revolution and synergistic escapades like this one...

TrueMeckDem on Myers Park Pat

"My opinion of Pat has changed over the years. I used to think he was truly a man of the people but the longer he has been mayor, the less I think of him.

As with most cities, Charlotte has three political parties: Dem, Rep, and Chamber of Commerce. Pat is definitely the puppet of the COC here. What is good for business is good for Charlotte and Pat ... very personable guy, he has gotten a bunch of Dems in these parts to vote for him but I don't trust him."
