The kids have spoken: Nickelodeon poll: Kids Opt for Kerry !

Kids Opt for Kerry in Bellwether Online Poll


LOS ANGELES - The kids have spoken, and it's Sen. John Kerry with a convincing victory over President Bush on Nov. 2.

An unusual opinion poll that has correctly predicted the winner of the last four presidential elections has given Democratic challenger Kerry 57 percent against 43 percent for Bush, according to results released on Wednesday.

The Nickelodeon cable channel, better known for programs "SpongeBob Squarepants" and "Jimmy Neutron," conducted "Kids Vote," an online survey of almost 400,000 children on Tuesday.

The latest Reuters/Zogby poll showed Bush and Kerry in a dead heat two weeks before the Nov. 2 election. Other polls also showed them in a statistical tie or Bush holding a slim lead.

Btw, MichaelMoore wrote about about Channel One in his book, Stupid White Men, and it was scathing. I dislike forcing kids to watch commercials..and some are very inappropriate commercials (we like you cuz you use clearasil and don't like her/him because he doesn't type)

3. Actually a good sign !
The very young usally go with the person their parents are going for. So I would not pass this off as useless. Iam holding onto hope that these polls are all off the mark and Kerry is actually ahead with an 8-10 point lead on the chimp ! The reason this # is not getting out is because the fix is in ,and how would they explain Kerry losing when polls have him up 10 points. Chimpy is so arrogant cause he has been assured the fix is in. We need exit polling more then ever in this election . I say if they steal it again ,we all boycott a large corperation products for the holidays and only buy nessasary goods.
