Gee, Dane 63-37. What a surprise!
Agreed. Surprised it wasn’t more like 95 to 5.
I have my World Almanac handy, with the 2004 and 2008 Presidential results by county. Because Wisconsin was a toss-up in 2004 (Kerry won by 11,000 votes), it’s probably better to look at counties based on how they went in 2004.
Dane County went for Kerry by a 2-1 margin, so 64%-36% is trailing the 2004 Dem vote.
Now that isn’t everything, because this is a turnout election. The Dem could be 2-3 points behind Kerry in every county, but if the turnout is higher in the Dem counties she’ll win and perhaps win big.
