Re: Early Open Thread (4.00 / 2)

CNN has the following voter break-out:

DEM:

42% Male
58% Female

17-29 13%
30-44 25%
45-59 32% (!)
60+ 29%

GOP:

53% Male (expected)
47% Female

17-29 10%
30-44 19%
45-59 26%
60+ 45% (expected)

The age/percentage demographics don't bode well for the future of the GOP in Mississippi.

So the plurality of Dems were late-Boomers and Generation X. Not terribly surprising. I guess our plan should be to simply outlive the GOP there.

Mass murder is generally considered immoral and is certainly illegal, so I guess we gotta. ;-)

Not too happy with the 17-29 demographic as it is only DEM+3 but I'll take the rest.

Yes, but the universities were on Spring Break. It probably would've been closer to 20% otherwise.
