Poll Of 35 Countries Finds 30 Prefer Kerry, 3 Bush

Traditional US Allies Strongly Favor Kerry

Bush Preferred in Philippines, Poland and Nigeria

Most Say Bush Foreign Policy Has Made Them Feel Worse Toward US

Washington DC: In 30 out of 35 countries polled, from all regions of the world, a majority or plurality would prefer to see John Kerry win the US presidential election—especially traditional US allies. The only countries where President Bush was preferred were the Philippines, Nigeria, and Poland. India and Thailand were divided. On average, Kerry was favored by more than a two-to-one margin—46% to 20% (weighted for variations in population, the ratio was not significantly different). Overall, one-third did not give an answer.

The poll of 34,330 people was conducted mainly during July and August 2004, with some countries being polled as early as May. Polling was conducted by GlobeScan and its worldwide network of research institutes, in conjunction with the Program on International Policy Attitudes (PIPA) of the University of Maryland. Due to the difficulties of polling in developing countries, in eleven countries, polling was limited to metropolitan areas. The margin of error ranged from +/- 2.3-5%.

Steven Kull, director of PIPA, comments, “Only one in five want to see Bush reelected. Though he is not as well known, Kerry would win handily if the people of the world were to elect the US president.” Support for Kerry was greater among those with higher education and income levels.

Asked how the foreign policy of President Bush has affected their feelings toward the US, in 31 countries a majority or plurality said it made them feel “worse” about America, while in 3 countries, more of the respondents said that it had made them feel “better” towards America. On average, 53% of respondents said Bush’s foreign policy made them feel worse about the US, while 19% said it made them feel better

2. somebody else linked an online poll that included almost every country in

the world....I thought I kept it, but can't find it

over three hundred THOUSAND votes, IIRC, and Bush got only about fifteen percent!

I think it was fourteen actually

anybody remember that one?

8. Hi Dutch Courage!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

5. Newsflash: Kerry has to win over his OWN country

Sorry, but it doesn't matter what other countries think. It's the American voters who get to decide these elections.

9. It is important for the World

I think you are not interested at all in the national elections of, say, The Netherlands. I understand: the outcome does not influence your life at all. Outside the USA, however, your elections of your president are very important. His decisions have influence in the whole world. Holland sent troops to Afghanistan and Iraq, that should not be there when your president Bush did not invade that countries.

10. Estimated 7 million Americans live overseas

It is looking likely that Americans who are part of their host countries share the overwhelming dislike of shrub's foreign policy. Perhaps winning an overwhelming majority of this vote is unimportant?

"it doesn't matter what other countries think" Good grief, its no wonder foreign policy blunders of the current administration don't get any traction.

11. Um, like in 2000?

We had a coup.
WE didn't get to decide a thing. We need international observers to help prevent another hoax. If we don't turn out a huge Democratic vote this time, they'll steal it again. Ex-pats are enraged. So are we.

6. The Philippines was polled

before they were insulted by the Ass Hole in chief for withdrawing their troops from Iraq. All 51 of them.

I'd venture a guess that Kerry would win a recount.
