Ted, an interesting poll. Bush at 46%, Kerry at 45%, and Nader at 6%:

story.news.yahoo.com.

Maybe the Nader percentage is a statistical aberration, but it's still higher than I expected it to be.


Tenchusatsu, oh I don't think its an aberration. He just announced his nomination and his percentage would be expected to be high.

Of course, this percentage assumes he will get on the ballot for all 50 states. Last time, with the Green party's backing, he was able to get on the ballot of only 43 states and captured only 2.7% of the total vote. I don't think that will happen this time. In fact, I think we will see Nader due a slow fade into the sunset between now and November.

But if I am wrong and he does make it, where do you think the other 3% of his current 6% will migrate to. <g>
