AP Exit poll info for Wisc.

[jezebel]

http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1714622,00.html
An exit poll finds Wisconsin Democratic primary voters are not big fans of globalization. Seven in 10 say U.S. trade with other countries takes more jobs from Wisconsin and fewer than one in five say it creates more jobs for the state. One in 10 say international trade has no effect on the state either way.

The exit poll for The Associated Press and television networks Tuesday also finds Wisconsin Democrats are overwhelmingly pessimistic about the nation's economy. At least half said the nation's economy is not good and nearly all the rest said it is poor.

Wisconsin Republican primary voters feel a bit better about the economy, but still, a majority think it's not good or poor.

The surveys were conducted in 35 voting places across Wisconsin.

[GarbagemanLB]

1. Not good for NAFTA Hillary.

[bluestateguy]

3. I wish Obama would hit her harder on NAFTA

he does not do it enough. In Ohio, that could be a winner for him. Even Texas is not as pro-NAFTA as it used to be.

[MadBadger]

9. Actually, he is.

In his first Ohio event he said "I've been told Speeches dont put food on the table, but neither does NAFTA."

[jasmine621]

32. Why? He wants to expand NAFTA. Or didn't you know that? nt

[jackson_dem]

34. He can't since he supported it and he is slightly more pro "free" trade than Hillary

[Hawkeye-X]

87. Evidence? Proof? Come on.

Don't go spouting off shit without proof, Mr. Prolific Clinton Poster.

[jackson_dem]

96. The smear artist who said he was "leaving" the board happened to miss the 2 threads on it?

:boring:

[maddiejoan]

4. How good is it for

EXPAND NAFTA OBAMA

[GarbagemanLB]

13. Yeah, the Clintons are tied MUCH more tightly to NAFTA than Obama EVER will be.

[rinsd]

17. Doesn't make Obama any less of lair about his position on it.

http://www.buckeyestateblog.com/obamas_misleading_mailer_on_nafta_hits_ohio

[maddiejoan]

18. On Free Trade

Obama is to the right of Hillary.

Deal with it.

http://blog.noslaves.com/hillary-and-obama-on-trade

[GarbagemanLB]

22. Try telling that to the public. LOL

:rofl: :rofl:

[rinsd]

24. Yes, Obama is an example of the power of marketing vs the truth.

Thanks for agreeing.

[jackson_dem]

36. Yup. Is Garbage=Axlerod?

;)

[GarbagemanLB]

42. You're welcome. We'll talk again when Hillary can run in 8 years.

[rinsd]

55. What will your screename be then?

[GarbagemanLB]

60. Oh I'll be here the whole time.

[rinsd]

63. Sure you will.

Just with different screenames.

[maddiejoan]

26. I forgot

I'm supporting a candidate.

You are supporting an illusion.

My bad.

[GarbagemanLB]

53. No, you're supporting someone running on her husband's record plus less time in the legislature

than Obama. nt

[maddiejoan]

57. Nope.

I'm supporting Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Damned proud of it as well.

Who are YOU talking about?

[GarbagemanLB]

61. ..Hillary Rodham Clinton...

[maddiejoan]

64. Then I guess you best review your facts

Garbageman.

[GarbagemanLB]

I am not quite sure how she got executive experience from being a wife and how she has more experien

ce than Obama, who has been in legislatures longer than her?

Care to enlighten me, oh informed Clintonite?

[rinsd]

71. Yes Obama has become experieced at deceiving voters gained from his years in the IL legislature.

See his present vote strategy.

[maddiejoan]

76. Try doing some research

instead of spouting off ill informed garbage, Garbageman.

That would be a great place to start!

[miceelf]

51. Pfft

That really doesn't say anything of the kind other than the blog author is focused on one issue ("reviewing all trade agreements", which could mean anything) and not on any other issue. According to your link, Obama has pledged to change NAFTA and Clinton has promised to "review" it.

[maddiejoan]

59. He just voted to expand NAFTA

is that the change?

[rinsd]

14. Yes Obama has been successful in lying about his & HIllary's NAFTA support

Obama's NAFTA support - http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=4656600&mesg_id=4656600

Obama's lying mailer about his & Hillary's NAFTA positions - http://www.buckeyestateblog.com/obamas_misleading_mailer_on_nafta_hits_ohio

He even has scrubbed his website.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4664208

[TwilightGardener]

20. Well, NAFTA is the Clintons' OTHER baby, besides Chelsea. Hillary has

to accept responsibility for it if she wants to run on nostalgia for the glorious Clinton years--she's treating it like the red-headed stepchild now.

"Obama Says He Will Vote for NAFTA Expansion" at: http://tinyurl.com/29rovu

Obama is the first presidential candidate to officially declare his/her support for the NAFTA expansion moving through the Congress. His announcement is not necessarily surprising, considering he was the keynote speaker at the launch of the Hamilton Project -- a Wall Street front group working to DRIVE A WEDGE between Democrats and organized LABOR on globalization issues. His announcement comes just days after a Wall Street Journal poll found strong bipartisan opposition to lobbyist-written NAFTA-style trade policies. Clinton and Obama vote for Peru NAFTA deal at: http://tinyurl.com/2qn59q

Vote for Barack Obama if you want to, but please do it with your eyes open and with the knowledge that Rupert Murdoch -- possibly the worst corporate media CEO around -- has endorsed Obama and is using all the resources of his media empire to help Obama and destroy Hillary Clinton (one has to wonder what Rupert Murdoch hopes to gain from an Obama presidency and fears from a Clinton presidency). And bear in mind that Obama chose as his senate "mentor" the loathsome Joe Lieberman, whose gleefulness in voting with the Republicans and against the Democrats made Lieberman (at the time Obama chose him as his mentor) one of the most despised Democrats in the senate. When Barack Obama had the chance to vote against NAFTA, he voted, instead, to expand NAFTA.

And, Obama voted FOR the Oman Free Trade Agreement. (H.R. 3045, 7/28/05; S. 3569, 6/29/06). OBAMA: "I believe that expanding trade and breaking down barriers between countries is good for our economy and for our security, for American consumers and American workers.

Statement of Lori M. Wallach, Director of Public Citizen's Global Trade Watch Division

Public Citizen - Common Dreams - Dec. 4, 2007
WASHINGTON - December 4 - Although not one U.S. labor, environmental, Latino, consumer, faith or family farm group supported the Peru free trade agreement (FTA), a majority of Senate Democrats today broke with their base, dismissed widespread public opposition to more-of-the-same trade policy and joined Republicans to deliver another Bush NAFTA expansion to the large corporations pushing this deal.
The debate in the Senate contrasts with that in the House of Representatives last month. There was little focus on the Peru NAFTA expansion deal in the Senate, but in the House an intense, multi-month debate resulted in a majority of House Democrats, including 12 of 18 House committee chairs, voting against the Peru pact and signaling that it is not an acceptable model for future trade agreements.
The breakdown of this vote vividly demonstrates two phenomena: the distance between most senators and the American public on trade issues, and the depth of the American public's negative opinion about NAFTA-style trade deals. All but two of nine Democratic freshmen senators who recently campaigned extensively in their states opposed the Peru NAFTA expansion today. Most of the Democratic presidential candidates oppose it, including Sens. Joseph Biden of Delaware and Chris Dodd of Connecticut.

In contrast to most of the Democratic presidential candidates who oppose the Peru NAFTA expansion, Sens. Hillary Clinton of New York and Barack Obama of Illinois support it. Clinton and Obama's support for the Peru FTA – after BOTH opposed the 2005 Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), which contained identical provisions and now campaign against NAFTA in Iowa, should make voters wonder just what sort of trade policy Clinton and Obama really support.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

78. They're the same with one notable exception: 1993

[TwilightGardener]

2. Dammit. That doesn't tell me anything.

[cali]

8. I actually think this could be good news for

Hillary. I believe the economy is her strong suit, and that concern about it plays to her favor.

[TwilightGardener]

11. Oh well, it's going to be a long night.

[NJSecularist]

16. From what I've seen, I don't think you can say who has the advantage in regards to the economy

It differs state by state...

[Labors of Hercules]

5. You are the embodiment of evil.

:rofl:

[Yurem2008]

10. Wisconsin wants "change"

a new direction in American politics and a new course for the economy. "Experience" does not trump the desire for "Change". This favors Obama. Hillary is carrying Bill Clinton's baggage on NAFTA

[jackson_dem]

40. Only on DU is only Obama viewed as "change"

[MadBadger]

6. Students vote late, and there are a lot of students. Exit Polls will be interesting to see

[WHEN CRABS ROAR]

19. I would like to see a% of student ( youth ) vote.

[MadBadger]

23. In my polling place, turnout was poor as of 3PM, but once 3:30 hit, there was a steady stream.

They were waiting until their classes were done, and then people started to show up.

[NJSecularist]

7. That's it???

Give us some meat on these exit polls, AP!

BTW, thanks for the link.

[NJSecularist]

27. Updated news from AP... from the same press release.

OPEN PRIMARY TURNOUT

Wisconsin has truly open primaries - voters choose in the voting booth which party's primary to vote in. The exit poll indicated that, as in earlier open primaries this season, far more voters were participating in the Democratic than the Republican contest. For about one in seven Democratic voters, Tuesday was the first time they were voting in a primary.

DEMOGRAPHICS:

As usual, men outnumbered women in Republican primaries while the reverse was true on the Democratic side. About nine in 10 voters in both primaries were white. The Republican electorate was a bit older than the Democratic. Roughly four in 10 in each party were college graduates.

Good news for Hillary.

[Maven]

12. Well, I guess that explains this

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4664208

[book_worm]

25. From this it's hard to tell who is leading.

[MadBadger]

28. MSNBC reports that 58% of voters make over 50,000 dollars

That could be good news for Obama

[Renew Deal]

30. I agree.

Especially when you consider a large chunk that make less than 50K are college kids.

[Zynx]

91. Median income in Wisconsin is in the mid 40,000 range.

This really isn't all that surprising.

[Renew Deal]

29. Obama and Hillary are splitting the economy vote 43-43

That's a great sign for Obama. But where is the other 14%?

CNN:

What is the effect of trade?

Democrats: It costs jobs– 70%, Creates jobs– 17%, No impact 9%

What issue are you concerned about most?

Clinton voters: The economy– 43%

Obama voters: The economy– 43%

McCain voters: Iraq war– 35%, Economy 33%, Terrorism 18%

http://thepage.time.com/wisconsin-exit-poll-highlights/

[MadBadger]

41. I dont think that means they tie the Economy vote

I thougth that is just the percentage of their votes who say the economy is their biggest issue. So Hillary could have 67 percent of the vote, but 43 percent of them say the economy is the most important.

[Renew Deal]

54. That's true.

[NJSecularist]

31. Updated news from AP... from the same press release.

[Renew Deal]

35. That's about the same as 2004

2004 was 45%. Also, a lot of the non-college grad will probably be students.

[book_worm]

38. Don't college grads tend to favor Obama?

[MadBadger]

47. Yes, but that would mean 6 in 10 dont.

[NJSecularist]

33. More exit poll data... 25 of the electorate is independent

http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/C/CAMPAIGN_RDP?SITE=ALMON&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT

Independents cast about one-quarter of the ballots in the Wisconsin race between Obama and Clinton, and roughly 15 percent of the electorate were first-time voters, according to preliminary results from interviews at polling places. Obama has run well among independents in earlier primaries.

[Renew Deal]

37. 29% were indies in 2004

And Obama has dominated first time voters.

[MadBadger]

44. Those numbers will increase IMO

students will vote late, and they are most likely unregistered at the moment.

[jackson_dem]

43. Both campaigns knew this. This is why they now "discovered" what Edwards talked about for years

[Renew Deal]

46. Ben Smith: Big night for Obama?

Mike Allen emails:

Democratic officials with access to exit polls say Senator Obama looks like he’s headed for a huge win in today’s Wisconsin primary. The polls could turn out to be off, as they have in the past. But the officials’ revelation reflects the chatter in the campaigns in advance of the 9 p.m. Eastern poll closing.

The party officials said that if the trends reflect in the interviews with hundreds of Badger State voters, the news out of the primary will be: Obama encroached deeply into three of Clinton’s core groups of voters – women, those with no college degree and those with lower incomes – while giving up none of his own. However, Clinton looked to be winning senior citizens, the officials said.

Stay tuned for real numbers.

Bad but funny!

48. one source: Early Exit Poll: Clinton 49 Obama 45

It's a right wing blog of questionable veracity, but they report early.

http://www.rightpundits.com/?p=1162#more-1162

5:53 Update– Early Exit Poll: Clinton 49 Obama 45 Hold onto your Hats! It’s gonna be a long night!
This poll doesn’t account for evening voters (professionals) who are now getting off work and heading to the polls.
Bad Economy is on Dem. Wisconsin Voters mind.

[MadBadger]

52. These polls are probably as reliable as the ones from Super Tuesday

meaning not reliable at all.

[Obamaniac]

92. BULLSHIT

Two exit polls --- FOX and AP --- have Obama winning women, Democrats, etc. and yet Hillary is ahead? What are men voting for Hillary by 15 points?

Nope. She's going down to another soul crushing defeat.

[Orangepeel]

93. I hope you are right (but I wish expectations weren't high)

[Orangepeel]

94. same source: 6:45 Update: Obama 57 Clinton 41.

for what little it's worth

[NJSecularist]

49. Two conflicting sources back to back...LOL

Truth is, nobody knows.

There are still 3 hours of voting left.

[Orangepeel]

56. Sure. LOL. But we're all on this thread because we can't wait for real numbers

and/or it is fun to speculate. I wouldn't bet a dime on the predictive value.

:D

[NJSecularist]

66. Foxnews has the first substantiave exit poll results

Here is what they are reporting.

Women:
Obama: 51
Hillary: 49
Democrats
Obama: 51
Clinton: 49
Independents:
Obama: 63,
Hillary: 34
Seniors:
Clinton: 60
Obama: 39


I missed the men. But if this is any indication, Obama will have a good night.

[MadBadger]

68. Fox News...ever so ethical

[NJSecularist]

70. The polls are 3 hours away from closing...

alot can change.

[GarbagemanLB]

72. the point is, the networks had agreed NOT to air results until polls were closed. Fox is a POS netwo

rk

[MadBadger]

73. I know, though I think Obama will do well in the last three hours.

[Renew Deal]

69. If Obama wins women, he wins the night.

We'll see.

74. The geezer margin is huge, though. That will hurt him.

[MadBadger]

75. Too Icy and Cold for them to come out. They make break a hip

LOL

[Metric System]

79. More old people bashing from ObamaNation! n/t

[Renew Deal]

82. Not really.

[Renew Deal]

81. The geezer margin is always huge.

They were 20% of the vote last time. But if Obama is winning women, he is almost certainly winning men by a lot.

[Zynx]

95. The geezer vote is not THAT out of sync with the rest of the electorate.

In NJ and VA they both went with the respective winners. Granted they skew Hillary, but they aren't going to give her a 20 point margin while everyone else gives Obama a 40 point margin. Doesn't work that way. I know this state.

[Barack_America]

80. Man, if that's true...

...Then that's one of the sharpest breaks we've seen for the independents thus far.

[MadBadger]

83. Is this Fox News Channel, or Foxnews.com?

[NJSecularist]

84. The channel.

[HereSince1628]

77. Foreign Trade. Truly. Wisconsin is T-paper maker for the WORLD!

[Renew Deal]

85. More: Obama winning under 50K: 51-49, Union homes 50-49

Fox Preliminary Exits for Wisconsin DemocratsWomen: Obama 51%, Clinton 49%

Families with income under 50,000: Obama 51%, Clinton 49%

Independents: Obama 63%, Clinton 34%

Seniors: Clinton 60%, Obama 39%

Top quality — experience: Clinton 95%, Obama 5%

Union households: Clinton 50%, Obama 49%

http://thepage.time.com/fox-preliminary-exits-for-wisconsin-democrats/


They haven't reported Obama's core groups yet, but he's holding his own with non-friendly groups.

[book_worm]

86. if true it's significant if Obama is winning among women 51-49.

it's significant even if it's close among women.

[NJSecularist]

88. double post

double post.

[NJSecularist]

89. Some demographic information from CNN

Democrats consist of 64% of the Dem Primary
Independents consist of 27% of the Dem primary
Republicans consist of 9% of the Democratic primary


Whites consist of 88% of the Dem Primary
Independents consist 8% of the Dem primary
