“As Maine goes, so goes the nation”?................
AP didn’t censor this? Something’s up...
Gary Johnson took 10%. Jill Stein 5%.
I think this is a bogus poll. Do they have the internals? If they correctly adjusted it by weighting D/R/I around 45/25/30 you’d see a big win by Hillary. We don’t know what party the students would register for but I’m sure CNN could make a good guess that results in Hillary up by about 15%.
Hillary will need to ensure that school children are not polled for her re-election or that the proper measures are in place to come up with the right answer. Can’t wait to see the 2020 wikileaks with Hillary’s people discussing how to rig polls of children.
If this had been an actual election, thousands of Massachusetts students would have been bussed from school to school to vote for Hillary.
How old are these kids?
If they’re elementary school age they probably voted according what they hear at home. If they’re teenagers, who knows.
My first mock election, I voted for GHW Bush in the 4th grade.
It was 1988, and I wanted to vote for whomever Reagan was supporting. It sure wasn’t because my parents influenced me (both Dems), although I question the choice in hindsight!
I didn’t get out much...
East Alton, Illinois 3rd graders (my daughter is one of them), chose Trump, too..
Might be promising for the general election - a few more that Trump needs to get to 270.....
Well, we now know what parents of school age children think up there.
Maine is not a blue state...it is a fiscal conservative, socially moderate, environmentally conscious state. They (Maine citizens) love their woods, however they love being employed, too. I think Northern New England (ME,NH and VT) will surprise...and even you might see other states going Trump.
