Back on August 26, I put up an article about the weight and history of demographics, as they’ve played out in Presidential elections. It’s not a bad idea to look again at the numbers, to see if and how things stand, with just over three weeks to go.
By the way, here in Texas early voting starts October 18. I plan to get my vote in early, just in case E-day is crazy. You might want to make sure you’ll get your vote in, also.
In 1992, Bill Clinton won the White House with just 41% of the Men’s vote. In 2000, Bush took 53% of the Men’s Vote. In August Bush had 49.0%, Kerry 42.2%. Right now Bush as 51.2%, to Kerry’s 43.6%, which favors Bush.
In 1968, Richard Nixon won the White House with just 43% of the Women’s vote. In 2000, Bush took 43% of Women’s Vote. Kerry in August had 49.0%, Bush 40.8%, to the present average of 48.6% Kerry to 45.0% Bush. Again, the trend is moving towards Bush.
In 1992, Bill Clinton won the White House with just 39% of the White vote. In 2000, Bush took 54% of the White Vote. In August Bush had 54.0%, and Kerry had 40.0%. Now, it’s 53.5% Bush to 41.5% Kerry.
In 2000, George W. Bush won the White House with just 9% of the Black vote. Kerry had 84% and Bush 12% of the Black vote in August. now, it’s 82% Kerry, 14% Bush, which is very good for Dubya.
In 2000, George W. Bush took 22.8% of the non-White Vote. In August, Kerry had 73.1% and Bush 24.1% of the non-White Vote. Now it’s 66.3% Kerry to 26.7% Bush, another sign of growing support for the President.
.In 1980, Ronald Reagan won the White House with just 86% of the Republican Vote. In 2000, Bush took 92% of the Republican Vote. In August, Bush had 88.4% of the Republican Vote. he now runs at 91.9%.
In 1992, Bill Clinton won the White House with just 82% of the Democrat Vote. Kerry had 85.4% of the Democrat Vote in August. He now runs at 76.4%.
In 2000, Bush won the White House with 10% of the Democrat Vote. In August, Bush was polling 8.3% of the Democrat Vote. He now claims 9.8%.
In 1960, John F. Kennedy won the White House with 5% of the Republican Vote. In August, Kerry was polling 6% of the Republican Vote. He now is getting 4.2%.
All in all, the numbers speak loudly. If you listen closely, you can make it out:
Four More Years Four More Years Four More Years…

Maybe we shouldn't get TOO shook up about these raw number "new voter" reports, after all, a significant cohort of the population becomes "eligible new voters" every quadrennium simply by reaching their 18th birthday. Probably 5-7% of the population. I have 4 kids who are "new voters," they are all voting for Bush.
yes, but the 130,000 has come from the new voter project, which has many reports of fraudulent registrations.
My husband, my mother and I have already voted here in AL. Absentee ballots have to be notarized or witnessed by two people and must be accompanied by a copy of some ID--like voter registration card, military ID or driver's license--which is why aliens should not have driver's licenses unless they are so identified as aliens on said card. The Dems mustn't be allowed to get away with knocking downrequiring id's at the voting places as racist, intimidating, etc. They just want to cheat.

This is the one that scares me the most. They have been aggresively registering people for a year around here. The polls don't include the dead and homeless because they don't have phones, but they will be voting.
luckily in alabama they have requirements for absentee ballots. In wisconsin they have none.
I could list what's wrong with wisconsin's voting system that makes it ripe for vote fraud. But it's so incredibly bad that you'd either get really depressed or think I was pulling your leg.
And the irony of it all is that if Bush hadn't picked tommy thomspon for a useless cabinet position, the voter fraud bill that the WI legislature passed would have become law, instead of being vetoed by the dem gov.
