Yep. I wonder if they weighted those percentages based on population. Liberal_Stalwart71 Jun 2015 #45

And they are claiming these were Democratic voters? truebluegreen Jul 2015 #84

The poll asked "comfortable with", not "resigned to". N.T. Donald Ian Rankin Jun 2015 #36

Not per Cali. From her post above, the question asked was: Live and Learn Jun 2015 #42

fwiw, it was probably just shorthand on your part, truebluegreen Jul 2015 #85

Very true. I should have differentiated. Live and Learn Jul 2015 #91

And therefore got both. Warpy Jun 2015 #65
