Bush 1,979 votes - 79% (79.25%)

Kerry 66 votes - 2% (2.64%)

Libertarian 84 votes - 3% (3.36%)

Const Party 160 votes - 6% (6.41%)

Other 22 votes - 0% (0.88%)

Sit it out 70 votes - 2% (2.8%)

Undecided 116 votes - 4% (4.65%)

2,497 votes total

Your statement that:
"2+3+6+2+4= 17%" relies on the false, almost deceptive rounding down that the poll engages in. An honest rounding would have added 4%, which yields the correct result.

The fact remains that 21% of Freepers picked a choice other than Bush.

Not *of FReepers*. Of Freepers who voted in the poll.

We can all analyze any stats any way we can think of. I am not a statistician. I have also seen the .02% that stubbornly refuse to vote for anyone who isn't their particular brand of perfect. So far, thank the Lord, they haven't hurt my candidates.
