Engagement in the 2008 Presidential Election


With just under 18 months until the 2008 presidential election, the vast majority of registered voters report being closely engaged in the campaign. The overwhelming majority express “a lot” of interest (77%) in the campaign, with another 15% reporting at least “some” interest. In addition, four in ten (40%) report having watched or listened to at least one of the debates between the candidates. Of the three debates, the Democratic debate on April 26th was the most popular, with 53% reporting seeing the debate (compared to 38% for the Republican debate on May 3rd, and 39% for the Republican debate on May
15th).


2008 Primary Vote


Among likely Democratic primary voters (self-identified Democrats who say they typically vote in their party’s primary election), Hillary Clinton takes the top spot with a 10-point lead over closest rival, Barack Obama. Former Vice President Al Gore and John Edwards are in a statistical dead heat for third place.
