population can't be used as total voters as not all are registered or elgible.

I beg to differ. With the Democrat-ACORNs giving absentee ballots to illegals and homeless junkies and filling ballots out for the dead, "registered" and "eligible" mean just about as much as Obama's No Lobbyists/Transparency campaign promises.

Differ all you want but they aren’t the same......

I think you miss the point. Total population is irrelevant because not everyone can vote. If memory serves me correctly, you can lop a third right of the top of the population of the average American city just to account for those who are under 18. Then you have legal immigrants who aren’t citizens etc etc. My guess would be that only half the population of any given is even eligible to register to vote.
