Things I Wonder About The 2012 Presidential Election

THINGS I WONDER ABOUT THE 2012 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION 

In no particular order...


1. What percentage of people voting in this election has followed any local, state, or federal politics/government in the 4 years since the last Presidential Election?

2. How many of the people voting for Governor Romney are true Romney/Ryan supporters or simply voting against President Obama?

3. Did President Obama's reaction to Hurricane Sandy sway undecided voters in his favor? How many? 

4. How many female voters have chosen their candidate largely based on how they feel about (or how much they identify with) the candidate's wife?

5. How many voters have chosen their candidate based solely on one major issue? What is that issue? If that issue were eliminated, how then would they vote if they voted at all?

6. How heavily does peer pressure and casual conversation weigh in voters' decisions?

7. How many voters who have been eligible to vote in past Presidential Elections are voting for the first time now? What prompted their action?

8. How many voters have aligned their voting decision with their religious/spiritual beliefs? What are those beliefs?
