Perspective
My house is located in one of Berkeley's "conservative" neighborhoods. Just out of curiosity, I thought I would check to see how well John McCain did. In my precinct, he got nearly 5% of the vote, or 19 out of 521 votes, to be exact: President And Vice PresidentHad I moved back here and voted for McCain, I could have brought his numbers up to 3.83%. (Now that's real power, isn't it?) I checked around, and discovered that McCain did best in some of the heavy student neighborhoods, where he ranged from 5% to 9%, his highest being 9.69% in this precinct in the hills next to the campus. But nowhere in the entire city of Berkeley (precinct map here) did he manage to get out of the single digits and clear 10%. I guess I've been living in a bubble. posted by Eric on 12.02.08 at 10:32 PM |
