What influenced the Votes in the 2008 Election


I think that this is very nice. It is showing the relevance between working class people and how they voted for obama. I think that people of the lower class tend to vote for the democratic party representive rather than republican because they feel that democrats seem to care more about the United States working class. I find it interesting that the lower the working class got the more they voted for obama. The graph seems kind of confusing and im not really too sure of the details and the symbols and what they mean but it seems very significant to the 2008 elections. How interesting is it that the class of an individual has to do with how they voted and who they voted for.


I felt that it is very interesting how the graph shows the different countys and how they voted. I never thought that the county would be a variable for voting in the 2008 election. It seems that others went the safe way by comparing age to votes and race to votes. I found it exciting to think outside the box and see how other things influenced the 2008 presidential election. I did this by comparing the effects and outcomes of the campaign to how citizens voted, and also countys and how they voted and how much they voted.
