Jun 22, 2008 - Interesting analysis but you have to consider that there could be more people voting in NOV than the primaries.

Jun 23, 2008 - True, but I just don't see enough people coming out for McCain to counter the flood of new participants for Obama.Plus, I didn't even get to the Ron Paul effect. Paul's presence and his summer convention could be huge in denying votes for McCain.

Jun 24, 2008 - Great video good job! I think there are a lot of people like me voting in November. Before Bush, I was Republican. After 7=1/2 years of Bush pandering to the top 1% of Americans and the hell with the rest of us, I am no longer voting Democratic in November, I volunteered to help out the local campaign Democrat.

Jun 24, 2008 - sorry, meant to say "not only voting Democrat in November" instead of "no longer voting Democrat" Also forgot to give my prediction of the 2008 presidential election. Here it is: Obama will win by a 2-1 margin.

Jun 25, 2008 - very interesting analysis, i enjoyed watching it, but one thing tho, during a LOT of the primaries, mcSame was already the presumptive nominee, so i guess a bunch of the repubicans didn't go vote cuz mcShit was already the nominee anyway.if you included the population and percentage of democrats and republicans, then we could've seen the voter turn out % for primaries for democrat and reps. but ya i hope obama wins and mcBush loses. right now it's looking pretty good!!

Jun 29, 2008 - well despite all the figures in the states u mentioned , opinion polls doesnt agree with your analysis, i dont think u can predicte the general election by analyzing the primary turn outs , hope obama will win
YourWorldTimesVideo Says:
Jun 29, 2008 - Actually, if you look at the current state-by-state opinion polls, Obama would beat McCain 344 to 194 in the electoral college if the election was held today. Also, opinion polls don't always do a good job taking into account all the new people the dems have registered and will be voting for the first time in November. And this is what, two weeks after Obama became the presumptive nominee? Obama hasn't even had the chance to debate McCain yet.

Jul 1, 2008 - your figures suck dude
roswellatup Says:
Jul 1, 2008 - obama cannot win more than 20 states.... dont count on kentucky, west virginia, kansas, arkansas, north dakota, texas, oklahoma and louisiana to go for that ugly obama

Jul 1, 2008 - They aren't "my figures," they're facts. Can't argue with the truth.
legolds Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - how sure are you of all this?70%? 80%?I really hope Obama wins
AvidViewer567 Says:
Jul 13, 2008 - I believe that while some of these things happened because John McCain already had the nomination, it's still true that the democrats had one of the highest primary voter turnouts of all time. This being said, Barack Obama is likely to win.Obama '08!
truetalkin Says:
Jul 22, 2008 - Good job. However, you forgot to comment on one major important point with your analysis: Your numbers show how many blind and uninformed people there are in the US. Lol. That's a lot of people that don't even know WHY they are voting for this obama guy. What exactly has he done as a senator to prove he is qualified. Hope for change? pshhh give me a break

Aug 6, 2008 - I'll agree with summation for the simple fact that Dem registration is up, Independent registration is up, and the extreme disdain for the GOP at this time. I don't know if it will be a blow out landslide, but Obama will win much more than the necessary 270 electoral college votes.
shan4short Says:
Aug 6, 2008 - I am a supporter, but there is no way in hell he is getting 400 ev's. You have to consider the Bob Barr factor as well as the simple fact that despite your findings people are still going to vote for McCain, and that many voters do not vote in the primaries. Now, I know that Obama will win the general election by perhaps, 300 evs but not 400. As long as Obama wins two southern states and all the states that Kerry won in 04, he's won this election.

Aug 12, 2008 - don't you know that facts are considered left-wing journalism to these people?
