I thought is was the phenomenon by which whomever Senator Bill Bradley endorsed-lost!

Pre-election polls showed Bradley, the mayor of Los Angeles, with a double-digit lead over his white opponent, George Deukmejian. But Bradley lost.....what happened was that the polls greatly underestimated the vote for the white candidates.

Yes but in this case those extra "white voters" were good old boy gun owners. On the ballot with Bradley and Deukmejian was Proposition 15 a handgun ban. That measure drew out low propensity conservative voters in droves. Despite what the press want to believe, it wasn't about race.

Women voted in unusually large numbers -- they outnumbered men at the polling places by 57 percent to 43 percent -- and they went heavily for Clinton over Obama.

Especially those from Massachusetts and other states, the dead ones and the virtuals.

Maybe they call it the “Bradley Effect” after the way he ran Los Angeles into the ground.
