Not only does the GOP presidential nominee have the backing of 95% of Republicans, but 41% of Oklahoma Democrats support him, too. Fifty-five percent (55%) of Democrats favor Obama. Unaffiliated voters are nearly evenly divided over the two candidates.

The Republican ticket gets a boost, too, from Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s selection as the party’s vice presidential nominee. Sixty-six percent (66%) say she was the right choice to be McCain’s running mate as opposed to 30% who say that of Obama’s selection of Delaware Senator Joseph Biden. Forty-two percent (42%) say Biden was the wrong choice, but only 22% feel that way about Palin.
Sixty-nine percent (69%) rate their view of Palin as at least somewhat favorable, including 56% who say it is Very Favorable. Eighteen percent (18%) say they have a Very Unfavorable opinion of Palin.
By comparison, 37% have at least a somewhat favorable view of Biden, including 16% who say that view is Very Favorable. Thirty-one percent (31%) have a Very Unfavorable opinion of the longtime Democratic senator.
Seventy-seven percent (77%) say Palin is at least somewhat conservative, and over half (52%) say she is Very Conservative. Fifty percent (50%) believe Biden is at least somewhat liberal, with 24% saying he is Very Liberal. Twenty-nine percent (29%) say Biden is a moderate.
McCain has a sizable lead among both men and women, although the latter are slightly more supportive of the Democrat. In all age groups and all but one income category (those earning $20,000 to $40,000 a year), the Republican leads handily.
Oklahoma has gone for the GOP presidential candidate in every election since 1968 and has one of the most conservative congressional delegations. President Bush won the state with 66% of the vote in 2004.
bwahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
41% of Democrats go to McCain.........Bambi must be spitting bricks.
Expect more like this as long as the media makes this election the urbane elitists against middle America.
Incumbent Democrats farther down the ticket in heavily red states must be reeling these days.
Amazing
Probably looking for some blow about now!!
d@mn clingers!
We could use a few more Oklahomas...
This is a laugher!
Never in doubt its just the fact that 41% of Democrats in Ok hate bambi.
Lots of conservative Democrats in Oklahoma, and they don’t like the obomber any more than we do. The moonbats are primarily in the two largest cities.
I’m sure Bambi has long since written off Oklahoma as God and guns territory. I have noticed our Democrat governor isn’t breathing a word about him. Nor is David Boren, from what I can tell.
Wait hold the presses. Keith Olbermann reports Oklahoma is in play with their internals show the race in a dead heat. When McCain wins Ohio by 5 and Florida by 7 and him winning Co, Mi, and Pa I wonder what all these polling outfits and the MSM will say.
Excellent news, and I am hoping to see similar numbers from many states.
I wonder if JC Watts is still going to vote for him?
