Poll question: *** DUers from Florida *** If there is a revote, who will you vote for?
I'm just trying to get a sense of what might happen if this does come to fruition.

1. I read a Miami Herald article
that said there was NOT going to be a re-vote. If there WAS to be one I can tell you that Obama would be getting 3 more votes that didn't bother from this family-my 2 daughters and one son-in-law-oh yea OBAMA

5. Thanks. I'm just trying to get an idea of who this will benefit...
...My sense is that HRC will probably pick up a few delegates, perhaps 10 - 15, but I'm not so sure.

7. I wonder what method will benefit whom?
Mail-in seems fair enough.

8. It's such a mess that I don't think anything will end up being fair.

10. If you want a sense of what might happen the best way to NOT
get it is have a poll on D.U.

11. I will not vote again
Throw out all of Florida's votes. Matter of fact, let's get rid of Florida, period.

This state is unreal. Gotta get out of here.

Hillary up 5
Obama up 6
From election day. That would change, of course, depending how much time passes before the actual vote.

14. I was a registered Independent during the January election...
I changed to democratic during a revote on a local race, and just got my new card in the mail.

Both my husband and I will vote for Obama. One of my good friends who absolutely loved Clinton back in January, will now also vote for Obama.

15. I'm starting to think the vote will be much closer than it was...
...in January. Obama has done well when only 2 candidates are on the ticket.

18. Well besides that look at the R and D turnout(s) in the Jan election
This is one of the only states where R's had more voters than the D's. I think this anomaly proves that A LOT of FL Dem voters stayed home judging that every other state(Red, Blue or Purple) D's have killed the R's in overall turnout.

No one will even comment on this anomaly.

16. My son lives in Altamonte Springs and he didn't vote because he was told it wouldn't count
Edited on Sun Mar-09-08 06:49 PM by greguganus
He told me if there's a revote that he and his roommate will vote for Obama.

17. May I add that some people who were die-hard Hillary supporters
and would argue for hours how disloyal we were by not supporting her, are either leaning toward or supporting Obama.
