Final SI stats below. I would like to conclude, IMO this was a good sampling (3%) of the SI vote. This when you take into account the highest bookmark thread at SI. That thread is a non political thread also.

Highest bookmark achieved by Bush 90 on 9/09/2004
Highest bookmark achieved by Kerry 38 on 8/10/2004
Highest bookmark achieved by Nader 5 on 8/11/2004

Lowest bookmark achieved by Bush after peak 80 on 10/30/2004
Lowest bookmark achieved by Kerry after peak 30 on 10/25/2004
Lowest bookmark achieved by Nader after peak 2 on 10/30/2004

Bush has captured 70% of the SI vote, based on the total votes cast. Using the most recent data. rounded to the nearest %. A true landslide.

Kerry has captured 28% of the SI vote, based on the total votes cast. Using the most recent data. rounded to the nearest %.

Nader has captured 2% of the SI vote, based on the total votes cast. Using the most recent data. rounded to the nearest %.

Based on this data. I would say this compares very well to the data on bookmarks on the two highest threads dedicated to the candidates. Those being the PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH THREAD at 484 bookmarks and John Kerry for President at 122 bookmarks. This puts Bush at 80% compared to 20% for Kerry. IMO the difference is SI Kerry supporters bookmarking the GWB thread. In other words, it's within my margin of error. <G>

The real election is what really matters. I'll go out on a limb and say MKTBUZZ won't have to change the name of his thread after Tuesday. If I'm wrong, then ChinuSFO will have the next lead on the president thread. Still SI, on political threads leans to the right by a 2.7 to one margin. Using my data collected, on the Presidential vote by bookmark threads. So any left winger politically will have their hand full.

After Tuesday these three threads will head for extinction, I think. Thanks to all once again who voted and(GITY). (GOOD INVESTING TO YOU!)
