The unknow quantity tomorrow - Edwards supporters |
|
Even though Edwards is not in the race, his name is and from what i gather there seems to be some sort of movement in cetain places for people to still cast there vote for him.
They really could be a significant factor in primaries in stripping away delegates from Obama, i think.
I think this is a real possibility in places like NY and California where Hillary support is large and perhaps Edwards support detracts from Obama.
In California in my opinion it may cause a huge problem because with the early voting, Edwards may carry over the 15% threshold in many places throwing Hillary more delegates.
I'm pretty sure Edwards vote has not been factored in properly.
Only tomorrow will tell.

1. First of all, you assume that Edwards supporters |
|
would go to Obama, you are wrong. There is probably more of an even split of Edwards supporters going between the two. And to be honest, some of don't really give a shit.

2. My vote for Edwards isn't taking a thing away from either of them |
|
My vote is FOR a candidate, not against one.
Whoever wins the national coin toss will be the nom. I am fine with that.
