Nickelodean Kids vote: Kerry 56% -The kids are always right. |
|
"If kids could vote, Sen. John Kerry would be the next U.S. president, Nickelodeon network's Kids Vote indicates," UPI reports. Kerry received 57% to Bush's 43%.
"Nickelodeon said it has held the Kids' Vote every election year since 1988, and its voters have correctly predicted the winner in the last four presidential campaigns."
Meanwhile, Scholastic announced the results of the 2004 Scholastic Election Poll and found that students in first through eighth grades prefer Bush, 52% to 47%.
Scholastic claims their poll "has accurately predicted the winner in every Presidential election since 1960."

They voted for Nixon and for Dewey... Did Nick kids pick Bush last year or does that not count since Bush really didn't win...

4. You know what this means.... |

Their parents are going Kerry, by a good margin too. I remember this stuff from when I was in school, practically every kid back then was just voting the way their parents were, we were too young to have opinions of our own.
