New Poll: Obama Head-To-Head

by Jason Rosenbaum  ::  Filed Under Elections 2008  ::  February 25th, 2008 @ 12:12 pm EST

This week, we want to know who you’ll vote for in the general election. But first, last week’s results:

Last week, we asked you what you would do if you were in charge of Democratic Convention rules; would you eliminate super delegates, keep the current system, or something in between? An overwhelming 62% of you said you would eliminate super delegates entirely. An additional 19% said super delegates should be required to vote the will of the people in their state, and 7% said super delegates should be allowed a free choice only when their votes can’t affect the outcome of the primary. All in all, 88% of you said super delegates should not decide the nominating process. Only 9% were in favor of keeping the current system.

This week, we start the first of our head-to-head polls. In a hypothetical general election race between Barack Obama, John McCain, and Ralph Nader, who would you vote for? Voting begins in the sidebar on the left. Next week, we’ll poll Clinton as a potential nominee.

      LaRoucheans are out of their goddamn minds. One of them approached my car in Chicago one time and tried to get me to take a leaflet. I said, “Ehhh, but he’s crazy!” And he agreed, but still pushed the leaflet on me.
