I've done a bit of campaign work and was told was the opposite: that Republicans typically had "management" jobs and were more likely to vote before work, during lunch, or sometime during the day, while Democrats were more likely to be "union" or students and so couldn't vote until after they punched out or classes were over. Also Republicans are typically more committed and so voted early. So the before 5 turnout usually was always weighted Republican, while the Dems struggled to get the students and homeless to show up. :) But who knows these days. If I were the Dems, I'd definitely be looking into Florida and Ohio - they should have the money and lawyers to do it but, if they are, they probably don't want to advertise it lest they be criticized. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:134522 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
