[Mpls] List, Minneapolis Voting

[Gregory Luce]

Looking at results for Minneapolis in the Presidential race, Kerry/Edwards
outpolled Bush/Cheney by 78% to 21% of the 200,729 votes cast in the City.
None of the third party candidates commanded a 1% share (Nader was at 0.9%).

Some notes on Wards:  the Fifth Ward for Kerry was unbelievable, with Kerry
outpolling Bush 8:1 and some precincts showing a 10 to 1 margin in favor of
Kerry.  The Sixth ward was also remarkably strong, with Kerry outpolling
bush at a 7 to 1 margin.  With the exception of just one precinct (Ward 7,
Precinct 10), Bush lost every precinct in the city to Kerry, and every one
but one of those precincts (W11-P3) by at least a 2 to 1 margin.

The results mirror our very unscientific poll of this list, with 75% of
those surveyed favoring Kerry and 14% favoring Bush, with the remainder
divided primarily between Nader and the Greens.
