Of the people who were questioned in the exit polls, 16% who said they were republican said they voted for coons. 81% said they voted for O’Donnell. 3% said either they voted for someone else, or simply refused to answer, which means they could have voted for either candidate.
You are somewhat right, to calculate the total I should have either ignored the 3% and adjusted that 81 and 16 numbers, or I should have added another 3% to O’Donnell (without subtracting from Coons).
Doing either still leaves O’Donnell losing by almost 8%, so it really makes no difference, a fact you keep ignoring while complaining about these “republicans” who betrayed their party.
Of course, all of this is based on believing both the accuracy and truthfulness of the people talking to pollsters after voting.

Wow, sounds exactly like Grima, no? You really should change your name.
Look, we don’t need backstabbers, and we certainly don’t need folks who stick up for them. I really don’t care about winning elections. I care about doing what’s right.
What good is it to win with a RINO who backstabs you anyways? Not a lick of good and enormously counterproductive. What matters is a representative who does exactly that, represents Conservatives, and isn’t afraid of doing so.
I’m confident that the majority of Americans really *are* conservative which is why it requires so much propaganda for them to think otherwise. You might disagree with me, fine.
I received emails from other RINO traitors on COD. It was useful in learning exactly who the traitors are and what they were saying. Means in the future that I know not to trust these people. COD was an excellent candidate which is why the liberals hated her so much. She represented everything that couldn’t happen.
You do realise that COD was one of the very few single women senators that have ever been nominated? There’s been fewer than the fingers on one hand. She was the first conservative. You think Liberals don’t realise just how frightening she was? It wasn’t a married man or a married woman or a single man. But a stunning, articulate single woman running as a republican. Not only as a republican but one on the right side of the party. In Delaware of all places.
I’m still mystified with how COD came to be in the first place as all the demographics are against her. Yet she’s there anyways.
So it wouldn’t have made a difference if we got closer to 5/5 Republicans on our side instead of 4/5. Here’s how I look at it. Every one on the ‘republican’ side of the aisle who attacks Republicans, isn’t just wasting our resources, but is preventing those resources from being effective. I rate them as punching twice above their weight in the generals. This is why it’s so important to get good turnout and good support from our side of the aisle.
