Bush beats Kerry in bobblehead vote at minor league parks

[LauraK]

FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) ? Looks like President Bush beats Democratic challenger John Kerry among some baseball fans, with Florida once again serving as the deciding state in the race for president.

No recount was done Monday as fans at seven minor league ballparks cast their votes for president by grabbing their favorite bobblehead doll.

Bush was the winner among voters at the home ballparks of the Charleston (S.C.) RiverDogs, Hudson Valley (N.Y.) Renegades, and Sioux Falls (N.D.) Canaries. The stack for Kerry ran out faster at the home parks of the New Haven County (Conn.) Cutters, Brockton (Mass.) Rox and St. Paul (Minn.) Saints. (snip)
