Telling voter groups

[Jasper 91]

I was just checking the latest polls and noticed that The Marist Poll , broke down voters into groups . I thought the results were interesting and pretty much say it all .

Money worries - always
28% Bush/Cheney
61% Kerry/Edwards


No money worries
61% Kerry/Edwards
32% Bush/Cheney

1. I don't get it

it appears to show that both groups are equally worried and not worried about money?

2. I think it's saying

Keyy has 61% support among both the poor (money worries) group AND the rich (no money worries) group.

Not sure, as it's kind of hard to tell from the post...

3. Look at support levels...

those who have money worries support Kerry...those without support Bush

remind the money worrying folks to get out and vote.

4. Hi Shylock

I'm sorry if it's not clear for you , the site shows it better . Here's the link .
http://www.maristpoll.marist.edu/usapolls/PZ041007.htm

What it shows is that 61%of people with money worries are voting for Kerry as opposed to only 28% who although they also have money worries , are voting for Bush .

Conversely , 61% of people with no money worries (high earners , big tax savers) are voting for Bush but only 32% of those with no money worries are voting for Kerry .

Or to put it even more simply : Rich people vote for Bush , Poor people vote for Kerry .

Hope that's a little clearer for you . :)

5. I see. What I didn't get

is that the 61% number is next to Kerry's name in both categories. Thanks!

6. Oops

:spank:

My mistake , I copied the 'no money worries ' down wrong . The figures are right just flip the names .
