Arkansas Blog: Hillary 70, Obama 26

Hillary 70, Obama 26

That's the final official presidential primary vote in Arkansas, released today by Secretary of State Charlie Daniels. Go here for totals and county-by-county numbers.

I love to comb the county totals and ponder such questions as: Who are those two Kucinich voters in Calhoun County? And that lone Joe Biden supporter in Newton County? And what do you think about Huckabee getting a bare majority of Republican votes in Pulaski County, where he's lived for better than 10 years?

I know who the lone Joe Biden voter is over in Newton County but I ain't saying. S/he is a solid Demo.

Good work Sec Daniels. I like the format except I would have put a title on each county page.

Looking at the final votes will be fun. I just scrolled through a few of the counties that I am most familiar with, and discovered that Clinton won 80-90% in most of them. Huck, not so well, but 50-65%. In the community where my parents lived for years and years, I can name every Republican who cast a vote and if I see them anytime soon, I will tell them how disappointed I am that they continue to support the worst of the worst.
Thanks for a great link. Like I said, it'll be fun.

Yes, that was interesting and informative. Thanks for having that available online. I didn't know there were so many Dems in my county! That's great!

Max assured me that he was only a one day convert to the O-cult (see the Thursday blog entry "Today I am an Obamaist"), but I sent him this link anyways.

Me thinks the only way voters like Huck is to not know the real Huck.
