"Never vote for" numbers

Mar 16, 2007 15:18

I subscribe to an RSS feed of polling information and numbers, mostly in order to get interesting examples for class. There are already a lot of presidential-candidate polls out there, which I consider totally irrelevant. Zogby, however, just ran an interesting poll, asking people if they would "never vote for" someone. Newt Gingrich heads the list, at 53% "never vote for," and Hillary Clinton is next, at 46% (and 43% of "moderates".)

The press release has the numbers for most of the major potential candidates, and some break-downs by party affiliation and gender. Barak Obama is at 33%, which is surprisingly low, I thought.

I have no idea who I'll be supporting in our primary; I can't believe that there's any way Hillary Clinton could win the general, and these sort of numbers are one reason why.
